Book Description
This is Not Architecture assembles architectural writers of different kinds – historians, theorists, journalists, computer game designers, technologists, film-makers and architects – to discuss the characteristics, cultures, limitations and bias of the different kinds of media, and to build up an argument as to how this complex culture of representations is constructed.

Review
‘This is a thought-provoking book. Much of the argument is very accessible.’ – Building Design
