Stonehouse & Stromberg's The Architecture of the British Library at St Pancras

I had to create a special order for The Architecture of the British Library at St Pancras by Stonehouse & Stromberg. They do list it at Amazon but it's around 70 quid. So instead - for the bargain price of £2.50 - I got the university to loan a copy on my behalf. It was actually sent from the British Library itself.

Anyway, aside from liking the idea of a book on loan from the British Library that's about the British Library, it's a really useful resource. It has all the architectural plans alongside some tasteful photography. The layout is nice too but it's the accompanying text which explains more about what the architecture was trying to evoke that might assist in the upcoming design work. There seems to be a philosophy behind the environment that I may be able to incorporate when producing this project's deliverables.
