Customer feedback describes the book as a comprehensive catalogue and praises its photographs and illustrations. One customer also notes floor plans for almost every project. The reported concern is readability, with small text said to be difficult to read. For a large visual survey spanning nearly 300 projects, that trade-off may matter less to image-led browsing than to readers who expect to study extended text.
Positive themes
