As Sanford Kwinter once said, "Concepts are the architecture of hope." In the modern world, conceptual architecture has only become possible due to modern man's increasing tendency towards individualisation. Concepts, in contrast to theories, do not demand absoluteness or intellectual consensus, but rather allow for a playful and singular approach to designing and building. The works featured in Conceptual Architecture possess sensual and atmospheric qualities that can be attributed to a delicate handling of materials and details.

The book is divided into seven sections: Public, Residential, Corporate, Educational, Mixed-use, Religious and Business.
