Includes historical works and/or for works aimed at architects or design professionals. For similar works aimed at nonprofessionals, use HOUSE & HOME. Place works concerning the technical or trade aspects of construction, in "TECHNOLOGY & ENGINEERING". Place works in “ARCHITECTURE” that discuss the architectural design of an interior space and place in “DESIGN” works that discuss the placement/arrangement of objects within an interior space.

Does this include art-history books about architecture, such as Paul Frankl's Gothic Architecture or Nicola Coldstream's Medieval Architecture?

See, I don't automatically think of "art history" as "history and practice" -- though maybe that's just me.

I think you're meant to see that as "history" and "practice" - not "history and practice".
So, assuming that architectural history belongs here, where do we put the gazillions of books about the history of art AND architecture?

I would have thought that these could perfectly well sit under ART. Generally they are not written for architects and many non-specialists are not too taxed by architecture bunking up with art anyway.

From the point of those interested in art it would probably not be a problem. But somebody interested in the history of architecture would have to check both places.
p.s.: historical works and/or for works aimed at architects or design professionals - so not just works written for architects.

Otherwise, if you're looking for something that's as much about one as it is the other, you'd have to check both places.

Yeah, I know, it's just unsatisfactory...
Guess, it's just because I happen to have a lot of books like that. I just don't get "architecture" vs. "art" as top level directories - it wouldn't work for me.
But we've been through that in the earlier threads. Though I think I made a good case, apparently the powers that be don't see it my way. As long as I'm not expected to change my own library accordingly I'll live... ;-)
