the BOOKSHOP at

Not too shabby! As a PhD student of architecture, I was pretty much smitten with their extensive collection in all texts space related. An entire wall is dedicated to monographs of particular architects from Ando to Zumthor and everything in between.
Then there are sections on self-​built architecture, landscape architecture, urbanism, theory, structures and materials, regional/​national architecture, and so on. Also there are some issues of international journals (like Japan Architect) that go beyond just «The West» as canon. So that’s nifty.
This is also a good place to pick up lit that is being published by the Bartlett or other local architecture producers.
Everything is very well organized and there’s a «RIBA recommends» section as well if you are lost and would like some guidance. It’d be nice to see an even broader selection of theory/​academic texts by top and emerging scholars in the field, but that’s just being demanding.

This RIBA bookshop has a huge collection of books on Interior design and Furnishing. Great of Interior designers and everyone doing refurbishments to house, bars, restaurant, hip hotels etc. There are a variety of genres and styles that you can choose from. It is also a good place to browse around for inspiration as it is fairly quite. The are more books on interiors in comparison with the other RIBA Bookshop in Great Portland Place. Worth a visit!
