Each of these Analysing Architecture Notebooks is devoted to a
particular theme in understanding the rich and varied workings of
architecture. They can be thought of as addenda to the foundation
volume Analysing Architecture, which first appeared in 1997 and has
subsequently been enlarged in three further editions. Examining
these extra themes as a series of Notebooks, rather than as
additional chapters in future editions, allows greater space for
more detailed exploration of a wider variety of examples, whilst
avoiding the risk of the original book becoming unwieldy. As
children we make places spontaneously: on the beach, in woodland,
around our homes... Those places are evidence of a natural language
of architecture we all share. Beginning with the child as seed and
agent of the places it makes, initial sections of Children as
Place-makers illustrate the key 'verbs' that drive that natural
language of architecture. Later sections look at the core
importance of the circle of place, how as children we are drawn to
inhabit boxes, and the narrative possibilities that arise when
place is linked with imagination. The principal messages of this
Notebook are that it is by place-making we make sense of the space
of the world in which we live, and that the first step in becoming
a professional architect is to re-awaken the innate architect
inside each of us.
