Author: Arthur Stratton

ISBN:
Category : Architectural design
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
"This book aims to initiate all who are concerned with the design of buildings into first principles of arrangement, irrespective of style, period or fashion, and its scope is deliberately focussed on the most elementary of known forms. The culminating periods of Greek and Roman architecture have here been drawn upon as well as the whole range of matured Renaissance architecture in Europe, and the book has been compiled not only from actual buildings but also from the wider field of projected designs. In the illustrations, all the buildings and motifs are presented in their simplest aspect, free from confusing detail, so that the main lines of the various schemes can be understood at a glance and the different forms compared."--BOOK JACKET.

Classical Architecture
Author: Curl James Stevens
Publisher: W. W. Norton & Company
ISBN: 9780393731194
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 238
Book Description
This well-illustrated book describes the fundamental principles and various aspects of classical architecture, including a detailed, illustrated glossary that is almost a dictionary of classical architecture in itself. Professor James Stevens Curl discusses in clear, straightforward language the origins of classical architecture in Greek and Roman antiquity and outlines its continuous development, through its various manifestations during the Renaissance, its transformations in Baroque and Rococo phases, its reemergence in eighteenth-, nineteenth-, and twentieth-century Neoclassicism, and its survival into the modern era. The text and illustrations celebrate the richness of the classical architectural vocabulary, grammar, and language, and demonstrate the enormous range of themes and motifs found in the subject. All those who wish to look at buildings old and new with an informed eye will find in this book a rich fund of material, and the basis for an understanding of a fecund source of architectural design that has been at the heart of western culture for over two and a half millennia.
