Architecture Editorial Review
"Designing the Exterior Wall: An Architectural Guide to the Vertical Envelope" is a comprehensive guide for architects and designers to help them in the process of designing the building envelope. The book is written exceptionally well with clear and concise language, making it an asset for anyone pursuing an architectural education. The author is knowledgeable about theory and practice and has done an excellent job of explaining the critical details necessary to design the exterior wall of a building. However, some reviewers were disappointed with the lack of detailed images, while others felt that the book was focused more on commercial architecture and could have included more content about residential architecture. Nevertheless, this book is still essential for anyone who needs professional knowledge to design the building envelope.
