The Architect Says

If there's anything architects like doing more than designing buildings, it's talking about architecture. The Architect Says is a colourful compendium of quotations from over a hundred of history's most opinionated design minds.

Paired on page spreads like guests at a dinner party, an architect of today might sit next to a contemporary or someone from the eighteenth century. These sets of quotes convey a remarkable depth and diversity of thinking. Alternately wise and amusing, this elegant book gem makes the perfect gift for architects, students, and anyone curious about the ideas and personalities that have helped shape our built world.

Product story

Whether musing about their inspirations (a blank sheet of paper, the sun hitting the side of a building), expanding on each other's thoughts (on materials, collaboration, clients, and constraints), or dishing out a clever quip, architects make good copy.
