Question:

Architecture books for teens?

My 15 year old brother is interested in architecture and I am want to give him something architecture related for Christmas but I don't want something to advanced for him to understand. Does anybody know of any basic architecture books that a 15 year old could enjoy?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

If he is interested he should be able to handle some stuff! With a lot of pictures I would recommend any book from the Taschen collection.

You are not very specific about his tastes; he might be interested generally in architecture, but there are many styles and times. I would then suggest something he is closer to: 20th century architecture.

The book "Architecture in the 20th Century" in the Taschen collection would be nice. You can have a look there:

Good luck!
