As its title suggests, Basics of Architectural Design equips
designers with fundamental techniques and principles—the
building blocks of their craft. It digs into the foundational
elements of design while sprinkling in a healthy dose of
wit and insight. Yet, beyond technical prowess, there lies a
loftier purpose. For, as the author explains, architecture isn’t
just about aesthetics; it’s also about societal responsibility,
cultural resonance, environmental stewardship and personal
aspirations. It’s about weaving narratives into the very fabric
of our cities.
While this book covers the basics, it leaves room for individual
expression. The true magic lies in what each architect chooses
to do with this knowledge. Pardeep Singh Maan concedes
that no manual can ever prescribe the soul of a design—the
whispered conversations between creator and context. This
handy book, complete with illustrations and useful tips, will,
however, go a long way in helping an aspiring architect pave
his or her path.
