Found this adorable little book the other day while shopping for Gabe's birthday, and I can't wait to find it again! Full of quick moments of inspiration, vignette sketches of architecture theory and a great book design + binding to boot!
In the tradition of Francis Ching books (Form Space + Order) (the old edition, of course - why did they have to type set that book anyway when it was so perfect with Ching's handwriting?!), this little gem is boiled down to bare essentials. Would be a fun book to keep next to an architect's desk (or any designer's for that matter) for a quick flip to find a thought of inspiration during a challenging design question.

A professor at my architecture school required that students trace over Ching's lettering every night for the entire term. No joke.
