Synopsis

This book explores the relationship between conservation of property, life, health and safety, and the aesthetic sense in architecture. It examines how the police power of the state can be used to enforce building codes and other regulations that protect the public, while the educational power of the state can be used to promote aesthetic values in architecture. The author discusses the historical development of architectural regulation, the different types of architectural regulations, and the challenges of enforcing them. The book concludes by arguing that architectural regulation is essential to protect the public interest and to promote the development of high-quality architecture.
