The "Golden City" has always been one of Europe's architectural hubs. Prague's impressive appearance is shaped as much by its varied and exciting history as by the exceptional creativity of outstanding architects working there. This guidebook is a valuable companion through the architectural culture of this complex and fascinating city. Two proven experts, Chris van Uffelen and Markus Golser, guide the reader through all historical architectural eras - from medieval times to the present. The chronological sequence and high-quality photos clearly reflect the typical characteristics of every era. In addition to approximately 300 individual buildings, the most prominent architects of Prague and each era are introduced. Two detailed maps enable visitors to explore and discover Prague according to their own interests.

The physical model is an important communication tool for architects. Although the proliferation of CAD programs has enabled the creation of increasingly complex computer models and virtual environments, there is also a growing need to address the three-dimensional qualities of architecture that may be lost when using such media. This book focuses on the inspiring possibilities for modeling the built environment with all the different media and techniques available. In describing the use of different models in different contexts, the book provides a practical guide to how and why models are used and what they are used for. This second edition includes more detailed step-by-step exercises, expanded discussion of materials and techniques, and updated coverage of digital techniques.

Conditional design is the sequel to Operative Design. This book will further explore the operative in a more detailed, intentional, and perhaps functional manner. Spatially, the conditional is the result of the operative. It is not a blind result however. Both terms work together to satisfy a formal manipulation through a set of opportunities for elements such as connections and apertures.
