Buildings Editorial Review
Prefab Architecture: A Guide to Modular Design and Construction is a well-organized and informative book on prefabricated architecture. The author provides a deep history of prefabricated architecture and explores its strengths and weaknesses. The book covers a variety of scales and applications including commercial and residential.
