Architects have frequently turned to philosophers and theorists in search of design ideas or a critical framework for their practice. However, architects and architecture students may find it difficult to navigate the writings of these thinkers.
This collection offers clear, concise, and accurate introductions to key thinkers who have written about architecture. Each book summarizes what a thinker can offer architects, situates their architectural thought within the context of their broader body of work, presents significant books and essays, helps decode terminology, and provides a quick reference for further reading.
Books published to date: Deleuze and Guattari for Architects, Heidegger for Architects, Irigaray for Architects, and Peirce for Architects.
