He describes ideas for use in the active process of design. In Analysing Architecture, Simon Unwin clearly identifies the key elements of architecture and conceptual themes apparent in buildings and relevant to other works of architecture such as gardens and cities. The bibliography of recommended supplementary reading has also been extended. Original chapters have been expanded, new case studies added, and the format rearranged for additional clarity. This third edition of Analysing Architecture includes a new section discussing the ways analyzing examples cultivates a capacity for design. Since its first edition appeared in 1997, Analysing Architecture has established itself internationally as one of the key texts in architectural education. Illustrated throughout with the author’s original drawings, examples are drawn from across the world and many periods of architectural history (from prehistoric times to the recent past) to illustrate analytical themes and to show how drawing can be used to study architecture.
It offers a unique ‘notebook’ of architectural strategies to present an engaging introduction to elements and concepts in architectural design. Clear and accessible, Analysing Architecture opens a fresh way to understanding architecture.
