For an Architecture of Reality

Rating:
Summary: Excellent
Review: I was required to read this book for a design class but I would recomend it to anyone who is interested in architecture or even life for that matter. This book makes you take a second look at things, not necessarily buildings, that you would normally just pass by. Great short read that is definitely not short on great ideas.

Summary: Antidote for the times
Review: This is a delightful little book (nevertheless with large ideas) and a marvelous counter to the excesses of our times. It focuses on the direct physical experience of buildings, and is written in surprisingly clear, even poetic, English. It returns our attention to fundamentals that, in this gas-powered, electronic, digital age, we too easily forget.

Summary: Just Enough
Review: With amazing amounts of architectural jargon out there to fill up your thoughts, this book is a quiet contrast that is likely to sit next to your bed for many nights after you are through. A small manifesto that says just enough, leaving room for interpretation, discourse and side notes to yourself. Thank you for the creativity and insights. Definately a "pass it on".
