Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the state of English architecture in the mid to late 19th century, critiquing prevailing building practices and highlighting their failures. It provides a historical context for the decline of craftsmanship in the building trades, and the rise of self-proclaimed "architects" with dubious design skills. The book emphasizes the need for a return to genuine craftsmanship and artistic expression in architecture, arguing that the current system produces buildings that are devoid of character and soul. It delves into the complexities of the relationship between architects, builders, and the public, and challenges the notion that beauty and functionality are mutually exclusive. The author decries the dominance of imitation and superficiality in contemporary architecture, advocating instead for buildings that are both aesthetically pleasing and structurally sound. By exposing the flaws in the architectural profession and promoting a renewed appreciation for skilled craftsmanship, this book offers valuable insights for architects, builders, and anyone interested in the future of architecture. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9780282885038_0
