Materials for Design by Victoria Ballard Bell
A textbook that bridges the gap between construction materials and design sensibility. It makes a thorough study of each material, followed by a series of 10-12 case studies. Color photographs, plan drawings, and detailed architectural diagrams illustrate how material choices impacted the works of Steven Holl, Shigeru Ban, and many others.
