Think Like An Architect

Do you know how to think like an architect? Do you know why you
should? How do you make sure that you have the critical thinking tools
necessary to prosper in your academic and professional career? This book gives
you the answers.

Architects have a valuable
and critical set of multiple thinking types that they develop throughout the
design process. In this book, Randy Deutsch shows readers how to access those
thinking types and use them outside pure design thinking - showing how they can
both solve problems but also identify the problems that need solving. To think the way the best architects do.

With
a clear, driving narrative, peppered with anecdote, stories and real-life
scenarios, this book will future-proof the architectural student and emerging professional. Change is
coming in the architecture profession, and this is a much-needed exploration of
the critical thinking skills that architects have in abundance, but that are
not taught well enough within architecture schools. These skills are crucial in
being able to respond agilely to a future that nobody is quite sure of.
