The Anatomy of the Architectural Book

Architectural bookmaking has been exposed to disciplinary debates, just as
building construction has been exposed to the charms of book culture. Dissecting
a wealth of books through fi ve conceptual tools, AndrÃ© Tavares analyzes the
material qualities of books in order to assess their crossovers with architectural
knowledge. The detailed history of Sigfried Giedionâ€™s Befreites Wohnen and
the two incarnations of the Crystal Palace in Hyde Park and Sydenham provide
a background that confronts us with the confi guration of the book as a unique
visual device.
