Twenty-Five Buildings Every Architect Should Understand is an essential companion to Simon Unwinrsquo;s Analysing Architecture; and part of the trilogy which also includes his Exercises in Architecture: Learning to Think as an Architect. Together the three books offer an introduction to the workings of architecture providing for the three aspects of learning: theory; examples and practice. Twenty-Five Buildings focusses on analysing examples using the methodology offered by Analysing Architecture; which operates primarily through the medium of drawing.In this second edition five further buildings have been added to the original twenty from an even wider geographical area; which now includes the USA; France; Italy; Mexico; Switzerland; Spain; Finland; Germany; Australia; Norway; Sweden; India and Japan.　The underlying theme of Twenty-Five Buildings Every Architect Should Understand is the relationship of architecture to the human being; how it frames our lives and orchestrates our experiences; how it can help us make sense of the world and contribute to our senses of identity and place. Exploring these dimensions through a wide range of case studies that illustrate the rich diversity of twentieth and twenty-first century architecture; this book is essential reading for every architect.
