Pleasure: The Architecture and Design of Rockwell Group
Universe Publishing
, 2002
Wonderful!
When I first saw this book in Borders, I couldn't put it down. I love how they've included artwork that have inspired their designs on the bottom of each page. It makes you understand how they work through pictures. You don't have to like their work (such as the ...

T O P

One of the most underrated books of all time
This book is simply amazing. It's loaded with (usefull) facts and info with everything you need to know from 0-3. It's highly stylized and I understand why some people would call it a "coffee table book". It's drawn up in a way that you can learn any fact in ...

Good approach and pleasant, but needs updating
Neighbourhood-focused approach is a pleasure, and color-coding works fine too, but they need to update the book more thoroughly (I know it costs money, but it should not be an excuse, they charge good money for the book). Text is very readable and visually relaxing; ...
