Hey /lit/ I know this is odd but I'm interested in some books fiction or non-fiction about User Experience Design. Scratch that. Just Design(Architecture, Landscape, Urban etc etc... )
Thanks in advance.

the light of shining dawn; as Eurus fell,
the damp fog lifted.'

while not a book, is the most interesting examination of (islamic and otherwise) garden design that I have ever encountered.
Aside from that, most books I've read about design are coffee table books with lots of pictures that I cannibalize in order to collect pretty pictures for reference, interior design inspiration, and sometimes to just hang up by themselves. Can be found for cheap at thrift shops.
I recommend trolling local thrift stores looking for anything on the topic you're interested in, since that sort of looking in itself might expose you to more sources that could be interesting. Especially if you're in an urban environment or a "trendy" suburban one, thrift stores have a lot of material.
Invisible cities by Italo Calvino is an interesting analogy between the physical spaces we navigate and mental navigation of memory, which could be tangentially interesting to you. The book is mostly descriptions of various fictional cities.
If I may ask, why are you looking for these books? Just personal interest?
Best of luck in whatever it is
