[APRIL] Vote!

April: Vote!

Vote is up here: http://goo.gl/forms/shfqeN4jyA

I’ll announce the reading on April 1.

I changed the format for voting this month. You can now vote for as many books as you would be willing to read, and the one with the most votes will be our reading. I also included more books on the poll to help get some diversity in there while still keeping to the same topic.

April’s topic is level design and architecture:

• Architecture: Form, Space, and Order by Francis D. K. Ching

• Experiencing Architecture by Steen Eiler Rasmussen

• The Image of the City by Kevin Lynch

• Designing Disney’s Theme Parks: The Architecture of Reassurance by Karal Ann Marling

• An Architectural Approach to Level Design by Christopher Totten

(Keep in mind that some of these do not have ebook versions, and some have older editions that may be cheaper for you to access).

As usual... if you haven't finished March's reading you still have this week to get to it.

I have the 3rd  ed of Form space and order. Its a pretty good collection of buildings, very inspiring with a book filled with architectural drawings and plans. If someone buys the 4th ed, tell me about it. The amazon page mentions 3D models on a separate disc, which sounds interesting. Might be worth it to buy the new edition just for these additions.
