holistically to help you make architectural detailing decisions
from the earth to the sky. Seven case studies from architecture
firms such as Perkins + Will, Lake | Flato, and Olson Kundig
Architects include more than 250 color images showing component
details, building sections, wall sections, and floor plans. For
each project, the architects explain their design intent and the
reasons for their material and tectonic choices, to help you form
your own strategies. This book will provide you with assistance by
its ease of use with legible keys, scales, and reference images.
Its key insights about why the firm chose certain materials will

architecture. Including a glossary and guide for how to determine
assembly, this book makes a welcome desk reference and is an ideal
