Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With a fondness for classical antiquities and neoclassical design, the connoisseur Thomas Hope (1769-1831) sought to influence Georgian taste by promoting informed interior decoration, displaying his own considerable art collection, and writing with insight on aesthetic topics. This two-volume work, originally published posthumously in 1835, traces the evolution of Western architecture since antiquity. Hope was a keen traveller, and the examples he cites are drawn from buildings that he studied on journeys through Europe and beyond, notably in those countries bordering the Mediterranean. Volume 2 contains the precise line drawings that accompanied the first edition, showcasing many western European and ecclesiastical buildings and details. The work's analytical index, which appeared in 1836, is illustrated with wood engravings of features mentioned in the text and has been incorporated in this reissue.

REMARKS UPON ARCHITECTURE SINCE THE TIME OF MICHAEL ANGELO, IN EUROPE. We have left off in the history of the revived antique architecture in Italy with Michael Angelo, the first who resumed the colossal style--the single huge order, embracing all the stories of a building. We have shown that, in other respects, far from approaching the pure antique nearer than his predecessors, Bramante and Sangallo, had done, he only deviated from it farther; and though, in other parts of Italy, there started up now and then an architect, who, like Palladio, sought to stem the torrent of bad taste, and to construct edifices in a better manner, their example had but little weight when opposed by that of Michael Angelo. After having thrown off the legitimate The following estimate of the merits of Palladio may be interesting: --"Vicenza was the native place of the great Palladio, the elegant front of whose little mansion is still shown. Many superb facades, concealed in the narrowest streets and most uncouth corners, still bear the marks of his sublime genius. His most admired productions are the Olympic Theatre, the Rotunda, or country house of Count Gabrielli, and the front of the Town-hall. It is singular, that while Rome, where existed the finest and most numerous remains of ancient architecture, should have educated the modern architects, such as Fontana, Borromini, Bernini, / skackles of that style which belonged to their age, their religion, &c., the Italians were little disposed long to suffer the restraints of that of a different age, religion, country, with which they had nothing in common, and which they had adopted without call or motive. They had always, in every art, in painting, in poety, in narrative, even in sculpture and...

Download or read book Writing About Architecture written by Alexandra Lange and published by Chronicle Books. This book was released on 2012-02-29 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extraordinary architecture addresses so much more than mere practical considerations. It inspires and provokes while creating a seamless experience of the physical world for its users. It is the rare writer that can frame the discussion of a building in a way that allows the reader to see it with new eyes. Writing About Architecture is a handbook on writing effectively and critically about buildings and cities. Each chapter opens with a reprint of a significant essay written by a renowned architecture critic, followed by a close reading and discussion of the writer's strategies. Lange offers her own analysis using contemporary examples as well as a checklist of questions at the end of each chapter to help guide the writer. This important addition to the Architecture Briefs series is based on the author's design writing courses at New York University and the School of Visual Arts. Lange also writes a popular online column for Design Observer and has written for Dwell, Metropolis, New York magazine, and The New York Times. Writing About Architecture includes analysis of critical writings by Ada Louise Huxtable, Lewis Mumford, Herbert Muschamp, Michael Sorkin, Charles Moore, Frederick Law Olmsted, and Jane Jacobs. Architects covered include Marcel Breuer, Diller Scofidio + Renfro, Field Operations, Norman Foster, Frank Gehry, Frederick Law Olmsted, SOM, Louis Sullivan, and Frank Lloyd Wright.
