A Peter Fawcett, BA., (Arch.), (Manc.), RIBA, Hon. ARUA., Head of the Institute of Architecture, University of Nottingham
Description
Architecture Design Notebook focuses on the process of design as pragmatic and non-theoretical. Dealing systematically
with the core design curriculum, it clearly demonstrates the skills required for designing at undergraduate level.
Providing students
with fundamental maxims of design, and a framework within which they can approach their work, this book supports undergraduates as they
learn to produce solutions to design challenges.
This vital design companion underpins the cornerstone of an architectural undergraduates'
studies - studio design projects. With over 100 sketches included, the book inspires student's design ideas.
This updated edition includes
new sections on green architecture, urban space typology, and the virtual building.
A. Peter Fawcett is an architect and critic who
combines teaching with sporadic practice; he is currently Professor Emeritus of Architecture at the University of Nottingham and visiting

Royal Academy and Royal Ulster Academy.
