Critics Review
‘In How To Build A Space Station, Morrison has crafted a fascinating look at how architecture and design have been applied to space travel and how they will be even more influential in the future. If, as someone quipped, we should send a poet into space to appreciate its beauty, then Morrison makes the case that we ought to send an architect up there if we have any hope to settle space’ Dr Alfredo Carpineti
‘How to Build a Space Station is full of fascinating insights into the history and future of space travel and the permanent habitats that will inevitably follow - with unexpected links to the worlds of architecture and the environment. Altogether an entertaining and compulsive read’ Lord Foster, Founder of Foster + Partners
‘For many people, How To Build a Space Station will be the most compelling book about architecture they will ever read.’ Daily Mail
