Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rural Residences Consisting of a Series of Designs for Cottages, Decorated Cottages, Small Villas, and Other Ornamental Buildings: Accompanied by Hints on Situation, Construction, Arrangement and Decoration, in the Theory Practice of Rural Architecture; Interspersed With Some Observations on Landscape Gardening If it be true that the Arts are relished in proportion as they are understood, and encouraged, as they become familiar; it is surely the duty as well as the interest of every professor freely to communicate the principles of his art, and to make its practice generally intelligible. For these purposes the following designs for rural buildings, accompanied by some practical observations, were presented to the public in the "Repository of Arts," under the title of Architectural Hints, during the successive months of the years 1816 and 1817. - The proprietor of that work having received such applications for the series of designs in a separated form, as induces him to re-publish them; further observations have been added to supply, in part, the many deficiencies which necessarily occurred from so desultory a manner of publication.
