A non park-architecture focused book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
I thought that the authors focus on non-park buildings was a refreshing break from other books. The ability to design the ideas of Walt Disney into the buildings used by the company itself, not just the guests, is a very interesting topic often overlooked by other authors. The architecture found in the parks is also facinating but I feel that this book focuses on the more overlooked buildings. I found the authors views on these buildings interesting and well thought out. The photographs are very impressive and often are of areas that the average guest would not be able to access. Overall, I think that anyone interested in understanding Disney as a company and how they have worked the 'Magic' into every aspect of these buildings will enjoy this book.

"The Aspiring Disney Architect's Bible"
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
Outlining the brains and bases behind the fantastic institution of Disney architecture, "Building a Dream" covers all of the basics, giving credit to the creative geniuses behind the mythical Disney charm. Providing the delightfully exaggerated imagery that we have come to love in full color (when applicable), "Building a Dream" shall remain the true enthusiasts' God-book for quite a while. From the Swan and Dolphin to the Sleeping Beauty castle, this book has what you need.
