The book is great but no bloody CD, stop falsely advertising this and other books in the 'Detail in Contemp Arch' series. I am assuming the hardback on comes with a CD... Do not order unless you can get confirmation that the book will have a CD.

I saw these in a shop for £30 - £40 and checked on here. £21 is a bargain for these books.
Lots of good details to help you get around some tricky detailing issues and all the details are on a CD so you can adapt and improve.
Wouldn't live without the set!

Detail in Contemporary Architecture takes the reader on a journey of pure concrete bliss. Combined with a CD ROM and design details, it helps any designer, architect, client to improve their understanding of what the complexity involved in something as basic a material as concrete.

Some very nice concrete projects on show here and nicely up to date. Some of the detailing is questionable as to whether the projects are actually built that simply but definitely one of the better books in this series. I would recommend this book.

I love concrete architecture, and this book gives you many fine examples, which include sketches, details and insitu photos. Was a great buy and arrived sooner than I expected (I think)! I love it!
