Manual for emerging architects – 2nd edition

More on this project

This book’s content is especially developed for emerging architects and other planners. It will guide you through 5 main pillars how to do architecture, establish a practice and stay in business.

manual for architects

The wonderland manual is not an architecture book in the classical sense. It is not about architecture, but about the profession of architecture. It is a handbook filled with facts and figures as well as tips and reports on the experiences of architects from all over Europe, making it an ideal companion for architects at the start of their careers.

It offers support for young architects who want to position themselves on the market. But it is also a good opportunity for architects who have been self-employed for some time to question their own approach and learn about other ways of doing things.
