Form and Design in Classic Architecture: Dover Books on Architecture

Autor Arthur Stratton
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 mai 2004
Most people recognize at a glance the extraordinarily graceful proportions of classical-style buildings such as London's Syon House and Athenaeum Club and the Banqueting Hall at Whitehall. Few, however, appreciate the underlying geometrical principles that lend these buildings their elegant unity of expression. "Form and Design in Classic Architecture" explains in simple, direct terms and with numerous photographic plates and line illustrations the ways in which the relationship of exterior and interior elements creates that unity and sense of completeness.
Dozens of edifices by Inigo Jones, the Adam Brothers, Sir Christopher Wren, and other renowned architects appear here, in images accompanied by detailed analyses. The author presents a chapter-by-chapter view of buildings in a variety of shapes, with separate treatments of vestibules, corridors, domed and vaulted ceilings, pavilions, loggias, interior and exterior staircases, porticoes, and colonnades.
The informative, readable text and handsome illustrations as well as the sheer beauty of the buildings themselves make this volume appealing, not only to architects and architectural historians but also to anyone with even a casual interest in architecture and design."
