Hand & Mind Conversations on architecture and the built world

In Hand & Mind architects and designers reflect on the parts of their practice that are often hidden—their inspiration, the genesis of projects, and problems encountered. This image-rich and strikingly designed book profiles a series of projects from UNSW alumni, staff, and students, from Glen Murcutt and Sam Marshall to Felicity Stewart and Matthias Hollenstein. Through dialogues, interviews, creative reflections and essays, Hand & Mind brings together projects and critical writing to provide a fascinating insight into the study of architecture.
