Review on Madame Architect
The book walks through the basics the industry without glazing over the responsibility of current and future designers, including social, economic, and ecological stewardship. Written by an architectural historian, researcher, designer, and educator, it surveys different industry paths with diverse representation, showing teens that architecture isn’t just a one-track course, nor is it only a rich white man’s game.
The book brings aspiring designers into 2021 industry issues and says, “You can help too. Here's how to get started.” Applicable, supportive, and timely, Architecture for Teens is the book I wish I had when I was 15.
