International Practice for Architects

"If you've ever questioned whether your firm should pursue work overseas or wondered if a small or medium-sized firm could successfully pursue international work and what do you do to start, International Practice for Architects was written for you. The 374-page book focuses on the many rewards and issues facing North American-based architects, planners, landscape architects, interior designers and other design professionals in more than a dozen disciplines when practicing overseas. The author shares his personal experiences from a career that spans 38 years and has involved projects in more than 30 countries, as well as insights from other leading design principals to provide readers with a comprehensive introduction to international practice."

"Known for several construction and drafting texts, architect Liebing here offers a book that is more about process than detailing. Intended for everyone involved in a building project, this volume offers a thorough overview - taking a design concept from paper to inhabitable building." (Choice; 1/09)
