I have a lot of books on Timber Architecture, it’s always a joy adding to the collection. In recent years there have been quite a few titles that give a whistle stop tour of selected timber buildings - Architecture Compact WOOD joins this genre. The book is indeed compact, measuring 180mm x 230mm, and so travels well - to Cornwall in my case. As you would expect, the photography is both inspiring and informative with a smattering of text in English, German and French. There are about 40 buildings to visit, primarily in Europe, from a mixture of big name architects and small studios.
