The AJ Buildings Library is a digital database that showcases more than 1,900 exemplar projects, most from the last 20 years but including major projects back to 1900.
This is a core resource for the School of Architecture, Planning and Landscape.
You can search for projects by age, cost, architect, building type, footprint, location, and a combination of these.
We like it as each project featured includes full project data (more than 20 items of information) and comprehensive architectural photographs and drawings (plans, elevation, section) – all provided at high resolution.
