I remember that when the guidebook Products for Architects appeared, I thought that apparently the time had come that we needed to be guided through the ever-growing market for materials and technologies by some well-informed guide. Not so long ago, it was clear who was doing what: facades, glazing, radiators, cladding, ceramics... There were few manufacturers, materials and suppliers, everyone knew each other, there were people circulating around the studios with catalogs (although you had to reach some of them yourself, because they didn't quite understand that information had to be communicated in a thoughtful way). Soon there were special sections - on the pages, in the catalogs: "for the architect". It sounded a little ambiguous - that supposedly some special information is needed for us... But that's how it should be. The AiB Guide is an important database, a collection of professional information that is difficult to do without.

I fully recommend the publication Products for the Architect as a valuable design aid. Both versions of "Products" - printed and electronic are clear, convenient to use and are a rich source of knowledge about building materials and products.

I also highly appreciate the new layout of "AiB". - The format is very impressive, the graphics are great, and most importantly - the issue is much thicker, so one can interact with your magazine longer, which is a pleasure in itself.

In conclusion - I sincerely congratulate you and wish you further successful publishing ventures!

Invariably, for many years the successive annuals of the publication Products for Architects are a valuable aid in the design work of our office. Due to the limited capacity of the publication, only the basic and most relevant information about products and manufacturers is included. And this is the biggest advantage. Thanks to this, we have the fastest overview of available materials, without unnecessary information and tedious opening of subsequent pages of manufacturers or distributors on the Internet. When detailed data, parameters, technologies are needed then, of course, one can use the information on official sites. However, Products for Architects is the primary source of information when searching for specific manufacturers or representatives, such a hint as to who and where offers the solutions you are looking for. Due to the attached photos of realizations, they can also be a source of inspiration. The online version works on a similar basis and proves useful, for example, in situations where we can offer a quick overview of available solutions in a particular architectural field when talking to a client outside the office. We can confidently recommend the Products for Architects publication, as experience has taught us that it significantly reduces the time it takes to find suppliers of the products or systems you are looking for.

Products for Archite cts is a great idea especially since it is branded by Architecture and Business. The online version in particular appealed to me. It's a cool virtual "place" where manufacturers, materials and construction technologies necessary, both in building and interior design, are presented in a very accessible and thematically sorted way. Gathering in one place so much useful information certainly makes work easier, but also allows you to "broaden your horizons" and learn about new products. An additional advantage is the constant updating and expansion of this collection.

Highly recommended!

VISION

Publishing Products for Architects is a bric a brac for executive projects. Facilitating our daily work, because it contains already selected solutions, it can be helpful not only to architects, but also to investors. Clearly catalogued materials, products and technologies used in construction create a logical lexicon of solutions, presenting designers with possible choices in an accessible way.

In the age of the omnipotent Internet, which, after all, requires time to wade through the often tedious and ramified investment, a catalog with a selection of selected solutions acquires the status of a personal letter from a friend; a dedicated book, where the publisher's brand is a guarantee of quality. From this point of view, the Architecture and Business Products Guide for Architects has the potential to be a handy aid of first use. Divided into easy-to-read subject sections - factual and topical, you might say nouns and verbs - it makes it easy to get to the information you need quickly and simply. Suggestions and advice are accompanied by examples of application, often prominent and well-known, which can motivate one's own personal attempts and, of course, better, exemplifications. On this anniversary occasion, one wishes not so much to expand the volume as to maintain the continued accuracy and clarity of the selection.

architect, Kurylowicz & Associates

A rich library of possible materials and solutions is an important element of any architectural studio. In a world of almost unlimited choices, a place where we can quickly and easily find the solutions we are interested in is worth its weight in gold. Sensibly arranged contacts to manufacturers with briefly described specialization are an excellent start to further search for what interests us. Products for Architects performs its role very well - it is a rich, logical and sensibly arranged catalog of manufacturers. They help us in our daily work saving precious time.

The Architect's Product Yearbook will come in handy for every architect at work. It is available in a handy, aesthetically pleasing printed version and an online version. The catalog lists selected building materials and technological solutions used in architectural design (including small architecture and interior design) and also in construction, along with inspiring examples of their use in Polish and foreign projects. Recommended.

architect, Ingarden & Ewý

Products for Architects and Offer for Archite cts in the form of inserts to individual issues of A&B, as well as in book form, are a compendium of both material knowledge and an overview of products and technology related to construction and the entire investment process. Architects are people with visual memory and with such a graphic form they primarily like to interact, so in our opinion it is considered a useful aid that we often reach for in our studio since 2007. The edition is characterized by a very clear form with high graphic culture. In the era of reaching for sources from the Internet, architects appreciate the precision of the transmission of information contained in the paper version, which, moreover, eliminates other content that is not of interest, which we can encounter on the interent sites, where also foreign advertisements make it more and more difficult to get to the product sought efficiently.

I would like to recommend the new edition of the annual Products for Architects, which is a practical tool in the design process. Architects, designers and investors can find all the materials and products they are looking for in an accessible way. The printed version of the catalog has a very accessible layout, making it a pleasure to use. For those who prefer the online version, a new portal has been prepared.

architect, Macieków Pracownia Projektowa

The Products for Architects catalog is another block containing extensive information on a variety of building materials to be used by architects during design. This catalog, which contains textual characteristics of the product, also enriched with photos of the products, provides for each product presented a contact with the manufacturer or supplier. Very useful, well structured thematically. I recommend especially to young architects and also to students.

Both the paper and electronic versions are useful tools in our daily project activities and we often reach for them. From the graphical side and the clarity of the included material and therefore practical, the material is very good.

Congratulations and best regards

Working on implementation projects requires frequent access to information about commercially available building products and materials. The obvious source is the Internet, manufacturers' websites and industry portals. Sometimes, however, it is more convenient to reach for a collected compendium, where handy data is published in one place. For this reason, it is useful to carry an up-to-date yearbook of Products for Architects.

It comes in handy!

A&B, is an excellent magazine that needs no recommendation. In the pre-internet days it was a window to the great world of architectural art. If a Polish project appeared, it was a kind of "quality certificate" for the work and its author. Although recently there have been more and more Polish projects in A&B, and the magazine is becoming a forum for confronting domestic and world architecture, it still "keeps class". Taking the A&B Catalog Products for Architects in hand, you can be sure of adequate quality. And indeed - the editorial form, and above all the clear layout and clear division into chapters making it easier to find products, are worthy of recommendation. Reputable companies advertise in the Catalog, because for them this publication, is also a "quality certificate". There is no detailed technical information, because these can be found on the companies' corporate websites, but instead there are photos of selected products and reference objects. It's just a pity that the catalog addressed to architects lacks the names of the authors of these objects.

Products for Architects is a short, thematically organized, guide to the latest products and technologies from the broader construction market. Conveniently, this first, initial selection is done by someone for me - and it is well known that for me, time is a huge value.

I returned to Products for Architects after years. It is a logical complement, removing from our studio, often outdated and space-consuming catalogs and pattern books. In contrast, Products for Archite cts is constantly updated.

On the plus side, I was surprised by the readability and handiness of the printed version. I use.

FAAB

We recommend the Products for Architects catalog published annually. We gladly use it in the design process. It is excellently structured thematically and substantively. It contains basic and most important information about products and manufacturers. Both the paper and electronic versions greatly facilitate daily operations. We are pleased to recommend this publication to others.

MAŁECCY design office

Products for Architects is an organized set of basic products, materials and technologies used in construction. Personally, I am pleased with its compact form, allowing one to quickly find what one is looking for. At a time when electronic versions are displacing traditional paper versions, any such professional publication is valuable. In publications of this type, the most important thing for me is a good selection of manufacturers, allowing to avoid the sometimes tedious search on the Internet, and this so far does not disappoint ...

architect, RS+ Robert Skitek

Recommended. Prepared, selected, properly arranged. It is used in an easy, readable and pleasant way. For me, a great convenience and convenience, an alternative to the ubiquitous jumble and chaos of information.

architect, KWK Promes

Seemingly unattractive today, the paper form of Products for Architects is its greatest advantage. A book you can pick up is a much better tool than the Internet. It frees us from the tedious digging through redundant content on the web by giving instead a concise product compendium. PdA lists selected manufacturers in a clear breakdown by category, an essence that answers the basic needs in the architect's daily work. Products for Architects is a handy essential for every studio.

We have known and used the Products for Architects catalog published annually by Architecture and Business for several years. We regard the compilation of information about technologies and building materials published in this catalog as a useful compendium of knowledge about products available on the market.

When looking for the right materials to use in our projects, we need clear information about their basic prices and examples of their applications. Secondarily, when we want to learn more about a particular product, we always directly try to contact the manufacturer's technical representative. Therefore, it is also important for us to know who is the "first contact person" for a given product. All this information (product description, photos of sample realizations and contact information) can be found right in the Products for Architects catalog.

Looking forward to the next edition of Products for Architects, we are already pleased to recommend this useful publication to others.

I send greetings

architect, HORIZONE studio

Like any architect, I often need new materials and fixtures. And when I need, I search. I sit down on a Sunday afternoon in my studio and "gouge". Away from the kids, the spouse, the employees and the ringing phone. Silence, tea and the blue glow of the screen. I search, meander, explore, fumble. Sometimes I find. I spend sweet moments stroking the stretches of contract carpets with my eyes, selecting garage doors and plaster colors....

Architect Products, unfortunately, spoiled everything. Everything at once in one place. You open the catalog and there you have it. My wife found out. She no longer believes the long search in the jungle of digital information. I no longer pull the wool over her eyes with stories about how difficult it is, how much junk is on the market, and how hard it is to find reliable information on the "internets." She knows that I can now find everything during working hours, during the week, before eight o'clock and on the shelf for that matter.

From the palm of my hand, without effort and hours of dawdling. What a life!

Products for Architects is a thematically systematized catalog, the most necessary building products. The catalog in a graphically clear form allows you to quickly find the necessary solution saving space in the studio and our time for searching. In addition, the electronic version with direct links to manufacturers greatly improves the work on the project.
