Customer Reviews

Excellent for both students and professionals!

I am an architecture student and have found this book to be invaluable. Many of my professors have been impressed with this text and have thought of requiring it. Stitt's format of easy to photocopy pages with comprehensive checklists make this book helpful for keeping up with the commom sense portions of materials selection and space design. The author uses room-by-room descriptions of everything from electrical concerns to materials and mechanics. Nearly every common building type is included and I know that when I have met the requirements Stitt outlines, that my imagination is my only boundary in a terrific design. It is a book that I am sure I will use nearly every time I start a project for the rest of my life.
