Book Status:
The book has undergone the first author editing. It is currently in the stage of preparation for layout and final proofreading.

🔍 Work Objective:

To obtain a professional external perspective and bring the text to a final readable, structurally coherent, and stylistically polished state before printing.

✅ Main Tasks:

Light substantive editing of the entire text:
- check how logically and clearly the narrative is structured;
- pay attention to the coherence between chapters, especially in transitions from personal stories to the expert part;
- maintain the author's style and "live" voice, but remove any overload if present.
Simplifying expert blocks:
- the book is built on alternating stories and explanations from the perspective of architectural psychology;
- expert inserts are sometimes cumbersome — we want to make them simpler, more accessible for a wider audience, possibly through imagery, metaphors, or rhythmic delivery.
Strengthening the ending:
- currently, the ending of the book is perceived as "flat" — a more vivid, inspiring, or emotionally strong conclusion is needed;
- we would appreciate suggestions on how to enhance the conclusion both logically and emotionally.
Composition:
- table of contents — layout-friendly and readable;
- book annotation — for the back cover/promotion;
Final proofreading after layout:
- check the layout for typographical and spelling errors;
- proofreading before sending the book to print.

🕓 Deadlines:

Ideal start: as soon as possible.
Layout is planned in the next 1–2 weeks, final proofreading — immediately after.
We are ready to discuss an individual work pace.
