Architecture Editorial Review
"The Metropolis of Tomorrow" by Hugh Ferriss has received mixed reviews from customers. Some appreciate the book for its content, describing it as a fascinating look at a future city and a guiding example of black and white drawing using graphite. The book is recommended by some for its historical significance as a showcase of the culture and drawing skills of Ferriss. However, others are disappointed with the print quality, describing it as poor and not meeting their expectations. Some customers received a paperback instead of the advertised hardcover and found the overall quality of the book to be subpar. The illustrations by Ferriss are praised, but the reproduction in this specific edition is criticized for not conveying the subtlety and depth of the original sketches. Despite the mixed opinions on the book's physical quality, the content is applauded as an important work in the context of twentieth-century future culture and architectural vision.
