AND ORDER
This classic visual reference helps both students and practicing architects
understand the basic vocabulary of architectural design by examining how form
and space are ordered in the built environment. Using his trademark meticulous
drawing, Professor Ching shows the relationship between fundamental elements
of architecture through the ages and across cultural boundaries. By looking at these
seminal ideas, Architecture: Form, Space, and Order encourages the reader to look
critically at the built environment and promotes a more evocative understanding
of architecture.
