Awarded for its unique ink illustrations, this newly revised edition of Architecture is Elementary is a selfinstruction book that concisely and coherently discusses the principles of architectural design.Stimulating lessons challenge the lay person and trigger creative responses. New features include a fresh design and layout, 50 new illustrations of recent and planned buildings, and new lessons that update the book for the world of twentyfirstcentury architecture.Author Nathan Winters explains the rationale for developers choosing to build higher and taller with modern highrises, and explores the engineering challenges for such giant structures. He also addresses the dangers of such adventurous design in this century, including becoming tempting targets for terrorists. Architecture is Elementary also explores issues surrounding modern landscape architecture, as Winters looks at the impact of green design and cities that seek to reclaim useless spaces (such as inactive railroad lines), converting them into parks for urban use. He also explores the financial and economic benefits of beautified landscape.The new layout, new lesson materials, and current examples of future thinking in the world of architecture make this a musthave for every serious teacher, student, and practitioner of architecture.
