The ArchDaily Guide to Good Architecture is a thoughtful yet approachable read that looks at how good design can shape everyday life. What I enjoyed most is how it mixes practical advice with real-world examples, showing that architecture isn’t just about flashy buildings but about creating spaces that actually work for people. It’s written in a way that feels accessible without oversimplifying, which makes it both inspiring and useful.
