Review Quotes:
'Despite its title, this monograph is about more than just designing buildings. Rather, the volume is a master class on creating entire environments for learning; it's as much about a special type of urban planning for educational communities as it is about creating individual structures.... Its pages are filled with handsome full-color images of each project - but it's not just a compilation of "beauty shots." Multiple views are provided of every building - both interior and exterior - so the reader can comprehend the character of each structure. To add to project understanding, photography is supplemented by campus ground plans plus floor plans of each building that was added.' - Traditional Building
