清单上的书目由编辑一一挑选，并按照类型与首字母进行分类，因此你可以从中挑选你认为有价值的书籍。
Architecture, while a profession that is very visibly and tangibly realized, has deep wells of research, thought, and theory that are unseen on the surface of a structure. What urges architects to design the way they do? What are their motivations, their affiliations, their interests? For practitioners and students alike, books on architecture offer invaluable context to the profession, be it practical, inspirational, academic, or otherwise. So, for those of you looking to expand your bookshelf (or confirm your own tastes), we have gathered a broad list of 116 architectural books that we consider of interest to those in the field.
In compiling this list, we sought out titles from different backgrounds with the aim of revealing divergent cultural contexts. From essays to monographs, urban theory to graphic novels, each of the following either engage directly with or flirt on the edges of architecture.
The books on this list were chosen by each of our editors, and are categorized loosely by type. Within their categorization, they are organized alphabetically. Read on to see the books we consider valuable to anyone interested in architecture.

《当代建筑细部设计》/ Virginia McLeod
建筑师们常常喜欢讨论概念，但这不会让人们对于建筑细部的体验加深印象。人们常常会注意到自身与地面的接触，亦或是栏杆扶手的形态，但是作为建筑师如何来表述它们呢？这本书中有许多案例，引发建筑师们对于设计细部的思考。——推荐人：Collin Abdallah
Detail in Contemporary Architecture Series / Virginia McLeod
As compelling as concepts are to discuss, they're rarely what makes the experience of a building special - that falls instead to a building's details.

《建筑中的热舒适》/ Lisa Heschong
在空调使用日益增多的当前社会，人们常常会忽略建筑的热舒适性设计，尤其是乡土建筑的建设长期以来都环绕着热舒适的传统之上，例如罗马浴室、伊斯兰花园，亦或是美国南部住宅的门廊等等。随着能源效益的愈发普及，建筑师们应当汲取过往经验，设计符合未来发展的建筑。——推荐人：Collin Abdallah
Thermal Delight in Architecture / Lisa Heschong
In an increasingly air-conditioned environment, it can be easy to discount thermal comfort in the design of a building. But architecture (particularly vernacular design) has long been built on traditions surrounding thermal comfort, ranging from Roman baths to Islamic gardens to the porches of Southern US homes. As energy-efficiency increasingly becomes a part of the conversation, it's wise to learn from the past to design for the future. - Recommended by Collin Abdallah
建筑师、电影，以及运动｜Architects, Firms, and Movements
《阿基格拉姆学派》/ Peter Cook
上世纪60年代发生了几次艺术革新运动，但是让人最为印象深刻的大概就是阿基格拉姆学派的建筑师们了。这个来自英国的团队为城市创造了诸多新视角，该团队由诸如Neil Denari、Lebbeus Woods、Morphosis等设计师领导。这本书源于他们自身的深入思考，其中也包括有大量的精选黑白图像。当前习惯于数字化表达的建筑师们大概十分愿意感受该运动的起源。——推荐人：Katherine Allen
Archigram / Peter Cook
More than a few revolutions took place in the 60s, but perhaps the most memorable one for architects is that of Archigram. The legendary British group created visions for cities that still feel fresh and fantastical today, and are carried on by designers such as Neil Denari, Lebbeus Woods, and Morphosis. This book is an excellent dive into their thinking in their own words, and includes a massive (though unfortunately black and white) selection of their famous collages. Those enamoured by the post-digital drawing craze will enjoy seeing where the current movement partly stems from. - Recommended by Katherine Allen

Design Like You Give a Damn / Architecture for Humanity
Many of us enter the field with a core belief that we can leverage the profession to do good for others. But often, the places most in need of optimism are the ones least likely to get it. Design Like You Give a Damn is the resource for socially-conscious design, gathering together projects, history, and information about the movement - and what's possible with a little optimism. - Recommended by Katherine Allen

The Future Of Architecture / Frank Lloyd Wright
This work by Frank Lloyd Wright brings together a large part of the writings and conferences that, over an intense decade of its prolonged existence, offered to the eagerness of qualified audiences, collaborators and students.

It was essential that these enlightening texts be brought to light for the new generations of architectural scholars .- Recommended by Martita Vial della Maggiora

Kicked a Building Lately? / Ada Louise Huxtable
Ada Louise Huxtable reinvented the field of not just architectural criticism, but criticism itself, winning the first ever Pulitzer Prize for Criticism.

MOS: Selected Works / Michael Meredith and Hilary Sample
MOS is an office known as much for their wit as they are for their architecture. Architecture, under their idiosyncratic gaze, is lively, ironic, and even a bit awkward. In short, it's as human as we are ourselves. - Recommended by Kaley Overstreet

Slow Manifesto / Lebbeus Woods Blog
Lebbeus Woods, until his death in 2012, kept a blog that was part-journal, part-forum. This book compiles some of the 300+ posts in what is likely the most encompassing insight into his particular genius. Perhaps the only thing missing from the book is Wood's complex and unique illustrations. But never fear! They are all available on his still (thankfully) open blog. Read the two together for the fullest possible experience. - Recommended by Katherine Allen

《不可见的城市》/ Italo Calvino
这本书介于小说和散文之间，Marco Polo描述了他曾经拜访Kublai Khan皇帝的城市的经历。每座城市都十分荒芜。这大概就是人们对于城市的讨论方式，即无数的反射和无形的记忆。这本书的内容通俗易懂，对于那些不喜欢无休止地讨论智能城市与循环经济的人来说，这本书非常适合他们，同时也说明了我们会爱上城市的原因。——推荐人：Katherine Allen
Invisible Cities / Italo Calvino
In this book, somewhere between a novel and a set of essays, Marco Polo describes the cities he's visited to emperor Kublai Khan. Each city is lushly, if fragmentarily described. This is surely the way we should talk about our cities: as shimmering reflections and formless memories. Easily readable in parts, this book is the perfect detox for those needing an escape from all the unbearable talk about smart cities and circular economies - and a reminder why we fall in love with cities in the first place. - Recommended by Katherine Allen

《建筑的依赖性》/ Jeremy Till
建筑师受欢迎的原因来源于自我与权力，但是许多建筑师都会告诉你，事实并非如此。建筑的成败来源于诸多因素，例如客户、承包商、规范、材料、功能分区、项目预算等等，这样看下来，一座建筑真正与设计有关的部分并没有多少。这本书还说明了建筑的依赖本质和人们所追求的完美主义之间的差异。（另：Reinier de Graaf在其新书《四面墙与屋顶》一书中也表达了类似的概念，如有雷同，纯属巧合。）——推荐人：Katherine Allen
Architecture Depends / Jeremy Till
The popular image of the architect is one of ego and power - but as any practicing architect will tell you, this is rarely (at best) the truth. Architecture depends on just about everything: the client, contractors, code, materials, zoning, budget…how much of a building is actually designed by the designer? This book investigates the gap between architecture's dependent nature and the aggressive perfectionism with which we pursue our work. (As a sidenote: Reinier de Graaf touches on similar ideas in his recent book Four Walls and a Roof - but read Till first!) - Recommended by Katherine Allen

The Destruction of Memory: Architecture at War / Robert Bevan
You're unlikely to find this book on any typical architecture reading lists, but that doesn't make it any less essential. Robert Bevan guides the reader through the architectural landscape in times of and after conflict, giving words to what we know but don't often say: that the built environment has cultural and personal significance that stretches far beyond shelter. The levelling of buildings in war is less often the byproduct of hostilities than it is the hostilities themselves. The active and systematic erasure of an urban landscape is the strategic and levelling of identity, culture, and people. - Recommended by Katherine Allen
