Excerpt: ...minute and delicate, and the whole effect, so to speak, entirely ladylike. The dining-room and drawing-room would thus bo in contrast. As to aspect, this must avoid equally the wet west, the bleak east, the afternoon sultriness of the south-west, the shadow of the opposite quarter, and so on, the south-east becoming thus the nearest approach to perfection, cheerful and pleasant early in the day, shaded from the level sunshine of the evening, and exposed only to the mildest winds; south being sultry, and west taking little else than the evening glare and the rain. The principles of side windows, as laid down for a dining-room, would still apply with end windows in addition for large rooms. Prospect would be always worthy of serious consideration, although best to be dealt with by end windows (if compromise of aspect be required), which may be south-west or even west if necessary, east or north-east; the eastward views having the especial advantage of presenting the landscape in the afternoon and evening, well-lighted pictorially, and the southward views for full daylight effects being placed at a disadvantage. The use of the bay window might now be still more advocated, the most serviceable form being not three but five sides of a regular octagon, whereby it is always possible, by closing three sides against the sun, to have two uncovered. Further remarks were made in explanation of the particular principles of plan governing a sitting-room so as to produce a comfortable fireside by the judicious relations of fireplace, light, and entrance, a result often found to be extremely difficult of accomplishment, especially in a small room, unless it be nearly square. The question of doors of intercommunication generally was also touched upon, ..

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Grammar of House Planning: Hints on Arranging and Modifying Plans of Cottages, Street-Houses, Farm-Houses, Villas, Mansions, and Out-Buildings This work is designed to meet a desideratum which has been long and much felt in practical literature. It purposes to place before the reader a wide variety of plans, ranging from that adapted to the simplest cottage and street house, up to the more pretentious country villa and town mansion. The design or scope of the work comprehends, however, not merely the giving of a series of plans, or suggestions for plans, but also occasional alternative arrangements adapted to one and the same plan; showing how, by altering not only the relative position of the apartments, but parts of the apartments themselves, as position of doors, windows, and fireplaces, certain disadvantages in the one plan may be obviated, and more convenient and more economical arrangements obtained in the other. This antithetical or contrastive mode of treatment, the reader will at once perceive, possesses advantages of a thoroughly practical nature; but which, obvious as they appear when alluded to, have not yet - the editor believes - formed a systematic feature in any work treating on House Arrangement. In addition to plans of houses of various grades, designs for Out-buildings and Stables are also given. These will be useful as affording hints to those who contemplate keeping, at their Country Houses or Suburban Villas, a small herd of dairy cattle, or a stud of horses. To serve in some measure as practical hints to the Student of Architecture, and to House Proprietors, as affording suggestions for the style of decoration they would like to adopt, a series of examples are given comprising Doors, Windows, Chimneys, &c.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theories of the domestic stemming from the 19th century have focused on the home as a refuge and place of repose for the family, a nurturing environment for children and a safe place for visitors. Under this conception, domestic space is positioned as nurturing and private, a refuge and place of retreat which gave rise to theories of 'home as haven'. While, arguably, some social conditions might suggest this is the case, Domesticity Under Siege exposes a different world, one in which the boundaries of nurturing domesticity collide with both outside and inside agents. Whether these agents are external military forces, psychological trauma or familial violence, they re-position meta-narratives of domesticity, not through identity politics or specialized subgroup experience, but relative to the actions of the world around an inhabited domain. That is, when home is constituted as a private realm, a place where individuals or groups can reside in 'safety and comfort', it is argued as a place in which the individual exercises control or power. However, there are many occasions when forces act upon the home and threaten aspects of safety and comfort, often through such things as ruination, violence, mortality, and infestation. Organised around four thematic sections, 'Microbes, Animals and Insects', 'Human Agents', Wars and Disasters as Agents' and 'Hauntings, Eeriness and the Uncanny', chapters provide a range of approaches to the home which challenge notions of 'haven' and reflect major causes that have played an important role in undermining the modern home. Examples and case studies explore the domestic screen, hoarding, hauntings, violence and imprisonment in the home, wartime interior art, the Hanover Merzbau and Wolfgang Staudte's 1946 film Die Mörder sind unter uns ('The Murderers are Among Us').
