The second edition has been redesigned and updated with new material, including case studies, exercise sections and contemporary visuals from students and leading architects.The book explores the initial ideas and concepts that begin any architectural project, and considers how these ideas are informed by the architect's understanding of the site and context. It then goes on to guide students through the rich history of the discipline, and acquaints them with contemporary theory and practice.
