Villa and Cottage Architecture: Select Examples of Country and Suburban Residences Recently Erected; With a Full Descriptive Notice of Each Building (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of domestic architecture in the latter half of the 19th century. The author, a keen observer of his time, presents a collection of recently erected country and suburban residences, each meticulously documented with detailed plans, elevations, and descriptions. The book delves into the technical aspects of building, exploring different materials, construction techniques, and the latest innovations in design. Through these examples, the author showcases the evolution of domestic architecture during this period, a time when Victorian ideals of comfort and beauty were being redefined in the built environment. The book goes beyond mere aesthetics, however, revealing the practical considerations that guided the design and construction of these homes, including their functionality, cost, and suitability for their specific locations. The book offers a unique window into the values, priorities, and architectural aspirations of the era, providing a rich resource for anyone interested in the history of domestic architecture.
