Book Reviews of Architecture: Form, Space, and Order
Book Review: good review of the basics
Summary: 5 Stars
This gook is a great value if you are new or just a beginning your career and want to get some nice perspective fast. I know that some reviews here indicate that this book is not the right book for architects.and i can understand their point of view, because they were expecting something the book didn't give.as a matter of face i was dissappionted too when i 1st got the book, but now i know it's a real treasure and definately a must-have for architects and new designers.
This book is the greatest illustrator of buildings throughout time, not in pictures but in beautiful sketches, from different angles and with a brief explaination of the design concept...it helps if u r studying history of arhitecture and u want to know the architects and their works.
Book Review: Chingy Ching
Summary: 5 Stars
what i don't understand is how you can give any book but this book especially, anything below 5 stars. Ching seriously BREAKS it down! I got most of my ching books my freshman year of architecture school and you couldn't pry them from my hands. They are sooo helpful especially architectural graphic along with Form, Space and order. No one pursuing a career in architecture in their right mind, not have ching in their library arsenal.Book Review: On time, Great condition but be careful how much you order.
Summary: 5 Stars
As it's said in the title, my book(s) came in right on time but i accidentally ordered 2 book of the same books. At this point, I've return one of the books but I honestly don't know If i'll be getting a refund. Overall, I order this book and it came in on time and in good condition.Book Review: architecture: form, space and order
Summary: 5 Stars
Beatifull book with superb pencil drawings. All the aspects for architectural composition are covered with a lot of drawings and historical examples. Perfect for students and a must for architecs as a reminder of all the options available and, also, as an inspiration.Book Review: Great book with great insight.
Summary: 5 Stars
I've had this book for a while now. It should be a staple for any young, budding architect and the principles contained within are examples of what make architecture different from engineering.
Great book by a great author.
