Reseña del editor
Excerpt from The Architect and Engineer, Vol. 93: April, 1928
Not only are there visible evidences of a growing appreciation of good domestic ar chitecture, but there also is an apparent increase in what one may call the open mindedness, even the inquisitiveness, of the public concerning the architect and his work. The word architect has been popularized in editorial and advertising matter within recent years in a way that was seldom heard of ten years or more ago. The introduction of the terms period and style, while somewhat reprehensible in a sense, has done a great deal to bring about this open-mindedness and this questioning.
