This book chronicles the most influential ideas that have shaped architecture. Starting with the basic building 'components' of door, window, column and beam and the classical orders, it then goes on to explore historical movements such as the picturesque and beaux-arts, innovative materials such as steel and reinforced concrete, technical innovations, such as the lift and electric lighting, through to modern movements such as 'universal design' and 'deconstruction'.
