Title: The Architect Says Condition: New Author: Laura Dushkes Contributor: Laura Dushkes (Edited by) Format: Hardback EAN: 9781616890933 ISBN: 9781616890933 Edition: Firsttion ed. Publisher: Princeton Architectural Press Genre: Architecture & Antiques Release Date: 01/10/2012 Description: If there's anything architects like doing more than designing buildings, it's talking about architecture. Whether musing about their inspirations (a blank sheet of paper, the sun hitting the side of a building), expanding on each other's thoughts (on materials, collaboration, clients, and constraints), or dishing out a clever quip, architects make good copy. The Architect Says is a colorful compendium of quotations from more than one hundred of history's most opinionated design minds. Paired on page spreads like guests at a dinner party-an architect of today might sit next to a contemporary or someone from the eighteenth century-these sets of quotes convey a remarkable depth and diversity of thinking. Alternately wise and amusing, this elegant gem of a book makes the perfect gift for architects, students, and anyone curious about the ideas and personalities thathave helped shape our built world.
