Architecture is a complex and compelling subject and one that we interact with daily whether it is buildings where we live, study or work, those we visit or ones we simply walk past. The Fundamentals of Architecture is a practical and accessible introduction to the concepts and processes of modern architecture. It explores the fundamental ideas that architects need to consider when designing buildings, places and spaces. The book is organized into chapters that reflect the various aspects of design thinking that occur during the process of creating buildings, from the context in which architecture is placed through the realization of the finished building to the roles that architects play. This fully updated new edition expands the coverage of sustainable practice throughout and a new chapter on professional practice covers the role of the architect and issues of ethics. A fully revised chapter 5 will focus on design principles as well as current trends in architecture and chapter 6 will explore a new project from brief to finished building. With 30% new images and case studies plus practical projects and exercises to help the student explore best practice, this new edition provides an ideal introduction to the field of architecture.
