||9 of 10 people found the following review helpful.| not worth the hype|By itmo|I had heard a lot about this book and how great it was. But I found this book to be useless. The book is small and so the pictures in it are small and of poor quality. There is only once in the whole book where it attempts to show you how to make some interesting forms but the pictures are so blurred and dark that you can't make anything out. mo|About the Author|
Sophia Vysivoti is an architect and has taught Design Method at the Architectural Faculty of the TU in Delft, the Netherlands. She is now Adjunct Lecturer at University of Thessaly, Greece.
The technique of folding in contemporary architecture is vividly illustrated with a survey of much-discussed concepts, projects, and buildings in which this technique was applied. This book is compulsory for every architect wishing to design outside the mainstream.
