Architecture Books – Week 12/2023
This week on A Weekly Dose of Architecture Books:
Monday is when I would normally have a new book review on my blog, but instead, A Weekly Dose of Architecture Books and this newsletter are going on hiatus indefinitely due to a family emergency. The below content was set up ahead of time so I’m including it here.
Architecture Book News:
At Urban Omnibus, Mariana Mogilevich unpacks — literally — Michael Sorkin's library, writing about the documentation, moving, and contents of the late urbanist's 2,359-strong library from his studio on Varick Street to a new reading room at City College devised by architect Elisabetta Terragni.
China Room of Politecnico di Torino has released three new books: “on Chinese Urbanization, Large Scale Design, and Contemporary Architectural Trends.”

A repost from December 2022 because of the Urban Omnibus article above: my visit to the opening of the Michael Sorkin Book Collection at CCNY, my alma mater. Click to see the room inside the architecture library at Spitzer School of Architecture.
A few recently received books:
See these and more recently published and forthcoming architecture books on my blog and on my Bookshop.org page.
