Description
|
|
|
|
To design a building, a theater, a government office, or a simple residence requires both technical and aesthetic sensibilities to capture the elusive balance of what is useful, comfortable, and pleasing, posits this book. The collection of constructions here, illustrated in fine engraved drawings, ranges from pre-Christian basilicas to buildings dating from the early 19th century, including such jewels of architecture as the cathedrals of St. Peter and Chartres; the Paris Opera House; the Capitol in Washington, D.C.; and the Taj Mahal. The introduction and captions are in English, French, German, and Russian.
