Reviews

Written in a clear, readable style, refreshingly free of jargon, Architecture in Play uses a number of prominent construction toys in Europe and the United States as examples of an interconnectedness between such toys and mainstream architectural thought. Tamar Zinguer’s book broadens our understanding of the larger contextual field of architectural discourse.""
