"Wprowadzona do tytułu symboliczna alegoria - "Sen architekta" oraz koniunkcja historii i historyzmu mają swe metodologiczne, a także merytoryczne uzasadnienie. Ów ujęty w cudzyslów "The Architect's Dream" to nic innego niż tytuł znanego płótna pędzla Thomasa ,Cole'a namalowanego przezeń w 1840 roku, a przechowywanego obecnie w Museum of Art Toledo w amerykańskim stanie Ohio. Obraz ten, jeszcze w latach sześćdziesiątych XX wieku uznawany był za znamienity przykład eklektyzmu i XIX-wiecznego kiczu, ale traktowany był "jednocześnie jako zabytek i świadek epoki. Gdy ocena sztuki i architektury XIX wieku zaczęła się zmieniać, od skrajnych ocen negatywnych i artystycznego potępienia do ocen bardziej obiektywnych, a nawet entuzjastycznych, zmieniała się rola obrazu Cole'a.

"The title Architectural and Program Diagrams in the series Construction and Design Manual brings together more than 600 pages from a predominantly international avant-garde and offers an overview of the state of the art in architectural representation across a spectrum extending from simple arrow diagrams to sober graphs and highly elaborate, often somewhat surreal collages and computer animations which trigger a wide range of intellectual and emotional responses. Diagrams tell stories. Those able to read them can follow the process bywhich ideas and thoughts take visual shape, find aesthetic form and, if all goes well, become part of the built environment."
No other architect in the history of Western art has had an influence so spontaneous and yet so enduring as Andrea Palladio. Palladianism broke through all cultural stylistic barriers. It spread not only throughout the Neo-Latin nations but held Germany, the Netherlands, Scandinavia and the countries of Eastern Europe in its sway and formed the lineaments of English architecture of the 17th and 18th centuries. Palladio lived in an age which was extremely exciting for the historical development of architecture and his work was an important factor in the evolution from Renaissance to Baroque. This volume offers a thorough introduction to the architecture of Palladio and includes all works which researchers have attributed to him.
