Bloomsbury Architecture Library is a leading digital resource for the study of architecture, urbanism, and interior design. Its dynamic digital platform offers access to wide-ranging collections of text and image content, from architectural history to cutting-edge design guidance.
Fully-searchable throughout, browsable by theme, or accessible through interactive features such as the visual timeline and world map, the content includes introductory guidance as well as in-depth research – making the Bloomsbury Architecture Library an essential resource for academics and students concerned with the history, theory, and practice of architecture.
The platform is comprised of multiple collections, detailed below.
Bloomsbury Architecture Library consists of two separate collections, the Core Collection and Architecture Design & Practice Online, available for separate purchase. When purchased together, the collections are fully-cross-searchable, allowing users to seamlessly access cultural and contextual content alongside technical and design content – breaking down boundaries between ‘silos’ of knowledge and relating academic theory to studio practice. Further collections are planned for the future.
Explore 5,500 years of the world’s architecture through Sir Banister Fletcher’s Global History of Architecture 21st edition; browse through an interactive visual timeline of global architectural history; or undertake in-depth research through Bloomsbury’s library of architecture ebooks.
