The Architectural Record, Vol. 18: July, 1905 (Classic Reprint)

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a stunning chronicle of American country estates from 1890 to 1915. The author has selected great American estates that are surrounded by ample land, and which were explicitly designed to compliment their setting. The book showcases the ways in which the American country estate, as a type of domestic architecture, found its footing during this time, and how it has continued to be one of the most consummate expressions of domestic living. From Italian villas and their gardens to the English country mansions, the author illustrates both the profound influence of European design on American country estates and the ways in which American iterations of the style departed from their models to create something new and uniquely American. This book offers a fascinating look at one of the most significant and enduring forms of American architecture.
