This book was released on 2018-07-16 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE Essay which gained the Architectural Association Essay Prize for the Session 1902-3, on "The Life, Work and Influence of Robert Adam and His Brothers," by Mr. John Swarbrick, after appearing in the pages of Architectural Association Notes, has been reprinted in pamphlet form, of which a copy has been sent to us. Though in general we should not devote a separate article to the review of a pamphlet, Mr. Swarbrick's careful and well-written monograph on the subject, for which he deserves all credit, affords an opportunity for a consideration of a career which formed an important chapter in the history of modern English architecture, and to which there is nothing analogous in the modern developments of Renaissance architecture in any other country. To weigh correctly the reputation enjoyed by the Brothers Adam, and to assign them their position among the architects of the XVIIIth century, is not, as Mr. Swarbrick confesses, an entirely easy matter. He has nevertheless attempted a short estimate of their influence, although the greater part of his essay is occupied with a comprehensive review of their work and career, compiled, as the appendix shows, from a great variety of sources. The task is difficult, it is further explained, in consequence of the diverse character of their undertakings. This, in a sense, is so. And it is perhaps only by considering their works as a whole, as the Adams themselves treated them, that we are likely to arrive at a result.... --The Builder, Volume 87

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Robert Adam His Brothers: Their Lives, Work Influence on English Architecture, Decoration and Furniture Some years have elapsed since I was invited to become the author Of this book. Then I was filled with admiration for some Of the finest works Of the brothers; for long I had been generally familiar with their best known undertakings and with the collection of engravings of their work. Published in the eighteenth Century and at the beginning of the nineteenth, but these had hitherto failed to convey to me an adequate conception of their remarkable ability as designers. It was not until I saw the actual works. That have been preserved with care in many of the great houses Of this country, that I became able to properly appreciate the value Of their work. And to ascertain the true position of the brothers among the architects and art workers Of their day. In addition to visiting the works Of the brothers in London and the vicinity, I have familiarised myself with examples in the more distant parts Of the provinces, as well as in both Scotland and Ireland. I have also been able, whilst upon the Continent, to pay Visits to most of the places at which both Robert and James Adam Stayed, when engaged abroad upon study and research; and in these and Similar ways I have sought to do what in me lay to render this book more useful and of greater interest.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hendrik Petrus Berlage, the Dutch architect and architectural philosopher, created a series of buildings and a body of writings from 1886 to 1909 that were among the first efforts to probe the problems and possibilities of modernism. Although his Amsterdam Stock Exchange, with its rational mastery of materials and space, has long been celebrated for its seminal influence on the architecture of the 20th century, Berlage's writings are highlighted here. Bringing together Berlage's most important texts, among them "Thoughts on Style in Architecture", "Architecture's Place in Modern Aesthetics", and "Art and Society", this volume presents a chapter in the history of European modernism. In his introduction, Iain Boyd Whyte demonstrates that the substantial contribution of Berlage's designs to modern architecture cannot be fully appreciated without an understanding of the aesthetic principles first laid out in his writings.
