Visual dictionary of architectural terms

Unlike other dictionaries, the reader will find exhaustive information on each term (definition, historical and functional description, etymology, translation into English and French), easily identifiable thanks to the drawings and photographs that represent them, enabling many of the fundamental elements and aspects of architecture to be understood. In addition, anyone wishing to delve deeper into each entry will find a semantic field of words that are defined in a glossary at the end. Its accessibility and exhaustiveness make this dictionary a basic tool for students and professionals related to the field of architecture and art, as well as for anyone interested in learning, understanding and enjoying architecture. This new edition of the "Visual Dictionary of Architectural Terms" expands the previous version by more than a thousand new words.
