Architecture foundation stones
The basis of this book is a must for a basic understanding of architecture - simply it explains the origins of scale - the basic principle of human interaction with building. The modular is the human composition which determines the design of architecture, in relation to form and scale.
A must for aspiring students and a nice reminder for practising architects.
