Knowledge of different languages opens a door to the world of other peoples. But there are languages that all of humanity speaks. These are languages of culture. Our audiobook introduces one of them—the language of architecture. Listeners are in for a treat, because from now on, walking through a city (no matter if it’s Moscow, Kemerovo, or Paris), they will perceive it like an open-air picture gallery. They will learn to distinguish and understand the characteristic “hashtags” captured by artists, engineers, architects, and urban planners from past years.
