One of the places I studied at, the AA School of Architecture in London's Bedfors Square, has a treasure of an Architectural Book-shop in its basement. This was my, almost daily, source of inspiration during my studies. The school's library was great, but there's something about posessing a book, allowing you to treat it as your own, the book becoming a small refelction (extension) of ones own know-how. Plus, as a quite 'messy' reader (I use dog-ears instead of book-marks, and make extensive notes in the margins) library books usually only perform as preambles for books that I eventually wish to own myself. Even today, over a decade since I graduated, I still visit this place every time I visit London. The ambiance and fragrance of the AA bookstore (which used to be called the Triange Bookstore during my time at the AA) is still addictive... <br />Unfortunately I can't think of anything comparable in Kuwait...Thomas Modeenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14242434089652955470noreply@blogger.com
