Architecture: A Visual History (DK Ultimate Guides) Hardcover – 4 Feb. 2021

It provides a wonderful overview on the topic of architecture and it is presented in a very pleasing manner. It would make a great coffee table book but the information is also very interesting. A great book for a novice or an expert to own!

Wow what a book, the photography is truly incredible. A great reference book and just thoroughly interesting.

Bought for my grandson, aged 10 for Christmas. A perfect present for a young boy interested in Architecture...he spent most of the holidays looking at it, what a change from being on a game station!

Bought as gift for GCSE student eyeing architecture as possible career - very well received...

An excellent publication, beautifully illustrated which provides very interesting historical and cultural insights.

Arrived on time and as described, great value, recommended seller.

its really good

A Visual History of Architecture is a grand title but usually the sort of project which DK excels in. This attempt does list many world buildings but the uninspired layout, small format and lack of detailed illustration for almost all the buildings shown make this feel like a catalogue rather than a studied exposition of architectural history.The two pages devoted to the Hagia Sofia were especially poor showing none of its beauty and grandeur. Returned my copy for a refund. I much preferred their Great Buildings which while it lists only 50 buildings deals with each as a work of art.
