Critics Review

”…a must-read for all designers associated with the built environment and should surely be on the library shelves of every architecture, urban design and interior design school…the intricate drawings provided by LTL are sure to inspire all those who have the privilege of cracking the spine of this amazing reference.” - Spacing“It has been a while since I devoured a book on architecture with as much pleasure…. I love a good section and I love this book. It might be perverse and old fashioned, but the section opens a world in architecture in which I gladly, with this book as my Baedeker Guide, go wandering.” - Aaron Betsky, Architect Magazine“As history shows, section has always been considered as a representational method first, and its input on architectural discourse is still largely undermined. Manual of Section successfully attempts to reintroduce sections within theoretical discourses; a new reference book for architects.” - ArchDaily
