"An excellent resource for educating and inspiring young minds on
the subjects of architecture, engineering, and the built
environment" - Architect's Toy Box Aimed at young, enquiring minds,
An Igloo on the Moon explores how and why we build. Beginning with
the igloo, whose origins are lost in time, and culminating in the
latest 3D-printing technology for lunar habitation, the book weaves
together themes and ideas to create an unfolding visual story.
Illustrated with a sequence of extraordinary collages, specially
created by artist Adrian Buckley, the book ranges through history
and across continents. Underlying the narrative is an awareness of
environmental issues and the need to reconnect with sustainable
patterns of building. It is a book to engage the next generation of
architects - and their parents and teachers. The title has won the
DAM Architectural Book Award 2015 and was exhibited in Frankfurt.
"Thank you for your beautiful book, it reminds us what architecture
is about!" Renzo Piano
