Summary:
Julius Shulman's long career photographing great architectural works with depth, passion, drama, and an instinct for the architect's intentions has ensured his present status as one of the world's preeminent architectural photographers. His eloquent photos interpreting the structures of Richard Neutra and other early modernists helped the viewing public to understand these revolutionary buildings, and brought prominence to modernist practitioners who might otherwise have been considered eccentric. Frank Lloyd Wright once said that no better photos had ever been taken of Taliesin West than those by Shulman. "Photographing Architecture and Interiors", published in 1962, is Shulman's first book, and he still considers it to be his most genuine reflection on the profession and on his own artistic philosophy. This title is an exact reprint of that classic publication. All of Shulman's famous photographs have here been reproduced from original prints, giving the images a crispness and luminosity not seen even in the 1962 edition. The introduction by Richard Neutra, perhaps Shulman's most important client and avid supporter, has been preserved; also included is a new foreword by Shulman.

Summary:
"Analysing architecture" offers a unique 'notebook' of architectural strategies to present an engaging introduction to elements and concepts in architectural design. Illustrated throughout with the author's original drawings, examples are drawn from across architectural history - from prehistoric primitive places, to temples, cottages and late twentieth century structures - to illustrate a number of themes and to show how drawing can be used as an analytical tool. Clearly identifying the key elements of architecture, conceptual themes apparent in buildings, and describing ideas for use in the active process of design, the book takes the form of, and encourages the use of, a 'notebook' of architectural strategies. Unwin explores the underlying patterns of architecture to reveal the organizational strategies which lie beneath the superficial appearances of buildings.
