With this pocket-size edition of Universal Principles of Architecture, discover 100 essential concepts that redefine how we shape the world.

Embark on a bold and thought-provoking journey through architectural theory and practice with this pocket-sized guide to the ideas that define—and disrupt—architecture.

The Pocket Universal Principles of Architecture distills the vast world of design into 100 foundational and visionary concepts that reveal the power, challenges, and transformative role of architecture. From timeless archetypes to speculative futures, this radical survey explores architecture at every scale and stage of the design process.

Organized into five insightful sections—Archetypes, Methods, Conditions, Relationships, and Imaginaries—each presents 20 dynamic principles that inspire new ways of thinking and building.

Discover concepts that span the spectrum of architectural possibility, including:

Figurative Archetypes • – Timeless forms that shape design. Parasitic Architecture • – Bold structures that adapt and evolve. Biomimicry • – Designs that draw from nature’s genius. Inclusive Design • – Spaces that embrace every body and identity. AI Cities • – Technology-driven urban futures. Queer Cartographies • – Mapping diverse, fluid landscapes. Intergalactic Architecture • – Visionary ideas for cosmic habitats.

Through a holistic and inclusive lens, the book bridges design thinking, creative methods, social impact, and environmental responsibility. It examines how the built—and even the destroyed—environments reflect our deepest desires to transform the world and connect with the cosmos.

Authored and illustrated by renowned architects and educators Cruz Garcia and Nathalie Frankowski of WAI Architecture Think Tank, this visually striking guide combines clear, accessible writing with imaginative imagery—featured in prestigious exhibitions at the Centre Pompidou Metz, MoMA New York, Neues Museum Nuremberg, and MAAT Lisbon.

Whether you’re a designer, architect, student, or creative thinker, this intergenerational and transdisciplinary resource will challenge your understanding of what architecture is—and what it can become.

The titles in the Rockport Universal series offer comprehensive and authoritative information and edifying and inspiring visual examples on multidisciplinary subjects for designers, architects, engineers, students, and anyone who is interested in expanding and enriching their design knowledge.
