Facinating Look At Competitions,
By
This review is from: Architectural Competitions: 1792-Today (2 Volume Set) (English, French and German Edition) (Hardcover)
This is a fun set of books. Looking at Architectural competitions over a long period of time, you see the winning entry, several runners up, and an essay about the process in each competition (and they are some very individual processes). Plans, elevations, sketches, models, and photos of the finished product (if there was a finished product) are present in varying degrees. Really interesting for those focused on Architecture and a good read for anyone of omnivorous tastes.
