Book Reviews of Design Like You Give a Damn: Architectural Responses to Humanitarian Crises
Book Review: social arquitecture
Summary: 5 Stars
I think this is an inspiring book for any designer or architect who is interested in learning more about what is being done in the world when it comes to humanitarian design. We as designers have a responsibility to contribute in the world and this book represents a beginning in this realization. The illustrations and design of the book are really well done. This is also a book for anyone who does humanitarian work, as it can give them ideas and also make them want to contact designers for work that is going to be done. I showed it to a friend that works within the nonprofit organization Save The Children and she found it very interesting.
