Pressman A. Architectural Design Portable Handbook
McGraw-Hill, 2001, 606 pages

Essential for any working architect, Architectural Design Portable Handbook guides you through projects every step of the way, summarizing, synthesizing, and systematizing the core tasks of design. Developed by noted architect Andy Pressman, this handy take-along reference is certain to become an indispensable tool.
You'll find value-added features such as quick tips and case studies, quotes from leading architects, checklists, and a customizable layout that encourages you to add your own helpful notes and reminders. And that's in addition to expert, time- and error-sparing information.
Architectural Design Portable Handbook is primarily intended to assist professionals in creating excellent designs, particularly in the early phases of projects. This highly focused tool offers explicit guidance on how to view, attack, or accomplish specific tasks to facilitate optimal design solutions.
The book also promotes critical reflection about the meaning of architecture beyond function and budget—although those issues are carefully analyzed as well; theoretical and practical conces are intertwined. This is achieved without excessive ideological narrowness or zeal, so that practitioners (and advanced students) with diverse backgrounds and degrees of experience will embrace the book and benefit more fully from its use.

Critical thinking in architectural design
Influence of the veacular
Orchestrating client involvement
