He describes ideas for use in the active process of design. The link between analysis and learning about the possibilities of design has been reinforced, and the bibliography of recommended supplementary reading has been expanded.Simon Unwin clearly identifies the key elements of architecture and conceptual themes apparent in buildings, and other works of 'architecture' such as gardens and cities. Many new drawings have been included, illustrating further examples of the themes explored. Beautifully illustrated throughout with the author's original drawings, examples are drawn from across the world, and from many periods architectural history (from prehistoric times to the very recent past), to illustrate analytical themes and to show how drawing can be used to study architecture.In this second edition the framework for analysis has been revised and enlarged, and further case studies added. Analysing Architecture offers a unique 'notebook' of architectural strategies to present an engaging introduction to elements and concepts in architectural design.
