Nature of Ornament: Rhythm and Metamorphosis in Architecture
Language: English
Published by W. W. Norton & Company October 2000, 2000
ISBN 10: 0393730360 ISBN 13: 9780393730364
Hardcover. Condition: New. The purpose of ornament-to articulate a realm of the imagination-is as important as it is misunderstood. Kent Bloomer, an outstanding sculptor and ornamenter whose work adorns the Harold Washington Library, Chicago, Reagan National Airport, Washington, DC, and other buildings, maintains that ornament is neither pure 'art' in the contemporary sense of the word nor mere decoration, but rather a category unto itself, with its own unique language. He describes the key elements of ornament, rhythm and metamorphosis, and shows their application in such figures as the foliated scroll. Illustrated with the author's evocative line drawings and photographs of ornament from ancient Greece to the modern cityscape, the book is a hymn to the riches of architectural ornament. A treasure trove of ideas and encouragement for architects looking for alternatives to the severity of modernism and graceless postmodernism. wrapped in complimentary Brodart dust jacket protector. BEAUTIFUL COPY!!!

Turner Brooks: Work
Language: English
Published by Princeton Architectural Press, New York, New York, U.S.A., 1994
ISBN 10: 1568980310 ISBN 13: 9781568980317
Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 139 pp. with B/W and full-colour illustrations. Only the slightest signs of wear. "Architect Turner Brooks has quietly built a practice in rural New England that is comprised primarily of residential projects. By combining vernacular elements and traditional materials with his unique view of the relationship of buildings to the landscape, he has created a body of work that contains some of the most interesting small-scale single-family houses being built today. 'I see my buildings as compact bodies-taut, stretched, swelling?objects with a strong sense of directionality, isolated on the landscape which they inhabit easily, but from which they are read as distinctly separate. They are often built on the scruffy abandoned edges of this great agricultural landscape-they hover slightly and are placed on the landscape without any presumptions or ambitions of transforming it. They are simply there, containers that outside their own tight wrappers, assume no accommodation to or from their surroundings.' The houses themselves, crouching animal-like in their surroundings, form a sort of architectural bestiary. Among the projects featured in Turner Brooks: Work are built works: McLane House, Starksboro, Vermont; Peek House, Monkton, Vermont; Gates Center, College of the Atlantic, Bar Harbor, Maine; Lombard/Miller House, Westby, Wisconsin; and unbuilt projects: Lobsterman houses, and Provincetown Eugene O'Neill Theater, Massachusetts. Heavily illustrated in color and black-and-white, this monograph brings to light the work of one of the most interesting American architects working today.".
