Résumé:
As architecture programs throughout the country break out of the classroom and adopt the holistic methods of design/build programs, the need for a textbook that bridges the gap between construction materials and design sensibility is sorely needed. Students must be taught how a choice of material affects the form and look of a structure; they must also learn how inspired design can inject any material with true personality and zeal. Broken into five sections — glass, wood, metals, plastics, and concrete — "Materials for design" makes a thorough study of each material's properties, followed by a series of 10–12 case studies of that material put to imaginative use by today's architects from around the world.
