Book Reviews of A Pattern Language: Towns, Buildings, Construction (Center for Environmental Structure Series)
Book Review: Excellent.
Summary: 4 Stars
The sections on designing houses are wonderful and should be of interest to
anyone planning a home of their own (although the construction
methods suggested here are fairly impractical.) The town planning parts
are thought-provoking but seem somewhat utopian.
