Architecture : form, space & order
... this classic introduction to the principles of architecture ... has been ... revised to incorporate contemporary examples of the principles of form, space, and order - the fundamental vocabulary of every designer. [The author] examines every principal of architecture, juxtaposing images that span centuries and cross cultural boundaries to create a design vocabulary that is both elemental and timeless. Among the topics covered are point, line, plane, volume, proportion, scale, circulation, and the interdependence of form and space. While this revision continues to be a comprehensive primer on the ways form and space are interrelated and organized in the shaping of our environment, it has been refined to amplify and clarify concepts. In addition, [this book] contains: numerous new hand-rendered drawings; expanded sections on openings and scale; expanded chapter on design principles.-Back cover
