How To Use Your PockeT Book Have you ever noticed what language you use when explaining architecture? Do you normally find yourself using too many abstract words to convey a simple idea? If you do, welcome to the world of architects! This pocket book aims to guide and entertain architecture students through the challenges of the abstract vocabulary that is acquired as you develop in the field. Going through the whole alphabet, you will find five sections per letter, which are as follows: • Dictionary: definition of an abstract word that is highly used when explaining architecture; • Scenario: a situation or sentence where you can employ the previous word; • Game: different word puzzles for your entertainment; • Doodle: a space for you to freely sketch your ideas; • Quote: inspirational quote about various topics concerned with architecture. If you’re preparing for a crit or about to sit through a tutorial, or even at home stressed that your AutoCAD has crashed your computer, never forget your pocket book! Relax and take some time to enjoy and learn! Have fun!
