Condition: Very Good. 49 EDWARDIAN ARCHITECTURAL PLATES - LUTYENS, VOYSEY, SHAW & OTHERS. A nearly complete collection of the plate suite from Maurice B. Adams's Modern Cottage Architecture, presenting examples of contemporary English domestic architecture by many of the leading architects working at the turn of the twentieth century. Plates I-XLIX are present consecutively, including designs by Edwin Lutyens, C. F. A. Voysey, R. Norman Shaw, W. Eden Nesfield, Ernest Newton, Aston Webb, Reginald Blomfield, Leonard Stokes, E. Guy Dawber, and Maurice B. Adams. The designs encompass individual cottages, grouped workers' housing, lodges and other small-scale domestic buildings, generally combining architectural perspectives with floor plans, elevations or sections. The original 1904 first edition contained 29 pages of text followed by fifty separately numbered plates; the present collection retains the first forty-nine plates but not the text or final Plate L. CONDITION - Very Good overall as a disbound plate collection. Plates evenly age-toned with occasional light spotting or handling marks. Roughness and small chips along some outer and former binding edges, with several plates showing somewhat larger marginal chips or short tears. Printed areas remain clean and unaffected; defects are confined to the generous blank margins and would generally fall outside a normal mat opening. PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS: FORTY-NINE LARGE-FORMAT PLATES, PRINTED RECTO ONLY. +++ Forty-nine loose architectural plates, numbered consecutively I-XLIX, approximately 9 × 12.5 inches, printed on one side only. +++ Each plate presents one or more examples of English domestic architecture, most combining an architectural perspective with accompanying floor plans, elevations, or sections. +++ The plates were originally issued together following the textual portion of the book rather than interspersed through it. The complete first edition called for fifty plates and measured approximately 33 cm tall. Among the particularly notable sheets are: Plate I: Cottages, Knebworth - E. L. Lutyens; Plate III: Group of Three Workmen's Cottages, Port Sunlight - Maurice B. Adams; Plate VII: Pair of Proposed Cottages, Madresfield Court, Malvern - C. F. A. Voysey; Plate VIII: Six Cottages at Elmesthorpe - C. F. A.

Norman Shaw; Plate XIX: Broadlands Entrance Lodge - W. Eden Nesfield; Plate XXIV: Lodge, Caythorpe Court, Lincolnshire - Reginald Blomfield; Plate XXXVII: Lodge, Oakfield, Mortimer - Leonard Stokes; The Voysey Society specifically records Plates VII and VIII as significant published examples of Voysey's work. HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE: A SURVEY OF ENGLISH DOMESTIC ARCHITECTURE AT THE TURN OF THE CENTURY. Published in 1904, Modern Cottage Architecture presented a broad survey of contemporary English domestic design, bringing together work by many of the architects shaping the development of the English house and cottage at the beginning of the twentieth century. The inclusion of Adams's workers' cottages at Port Sunlight broadens the collection beyond private domestic architecture to purpose-built housing within one of Britain's influential model industrial communities. As a nearly intact plate suite, the collection preserves both architectural perspectives and plans, documenting exterior design alongside the practical organization of domestic space.
