Synopsis:
This is the only publication that presents a modern interpretation of the Classical Orders. The new edition of this successful title now includes the proportions in both metric and imperial measurements to make the orders more accessible and to provide a valuable reference for designers. The inclusion of both 100-part and 96-part systems of proportion is underpinned by an essay on James Gibbs - one of the 18th century authors of standardized proportioning systems - and his influence in America. Along with additional plates, this book gives a clear introduction to those not familiar with the classical genre and is an easy to follow guide which assists architects, interior designers and conservators with the quality of their design.

Softcover. glossy violet wraps w/ white printing. 228 pgs w/ bw illustrations. "The recent revival of interest in classical architecture needs to be matched by a high degree of literacy in the use of the orders if it is to be taken seriously. Presenting a modern interpretation of renaissance rules of proportion, the second edition of this successful title now includes both 100-part (metric) and 96-part (imperial) systems of proportioning the orders. These are underpinned by an essay, written by Calder Loth, on James Gibbs, 18th century architect and inventor of a new fractional system of proportions, and his influence on American classical architecture. With the inclusion of additional plates, the book provides a clear introduction and valuable guidance to assist architects and designers with the basic grammar of classical design"--WorldCat.
