Jan Kaplicky wrote a nice picture book with lots of architectural bon mots, a philosophical writing akin to the art of war, though with pictures.

whoa, thats sounds cool...

This seems like a good thread question.

Last year , when I saw that Green Blob Tent won that competition in Prague, everything I thought I was learning about Architecture, suddenly seemed off. This is a good feeling. I was really surprised, and so now i am curious to what the final product will actually look like.

If you pick up ANY of their books, you will be able to figure it out.

ANY.

But I guess it's a question of picking up a book to read...

sorry there's a philosophy behind it? Worse is that furniture? That's no hella? But honestly I think that eye over Lords is wicked! Unfortunately it has been poorly copied so many times that the original just seems like a grey wig
