A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

This historical study traces the architectural styles of UK banks from the 18th century to the present day, demonstrating how architects adopted ideas from Venice and Elizabethan Britain to give banking buildings respectability and continuity. The author describes the evolution of design through neo-Tudor, the Gothic revival, neo-Classical and neo-Georgian styles, and provides a full catalogue of the most significant bank buildings mentioned in the text. Concluding the book, the author predicts future trends of banking design, explaining how the call for customer friendliness and the arrival of new technology have made their own impact on architectural styles.

Description de la librairie

Formerly known as Journobooks, our original speciality was books about journalism, journalists, newspapers, magazines and other media (hence the old name) and we still have a great stock of hard-to-find books in that field. Over time we have added a wide variety of other collectible gems some of which we sell on behalf of the charity Friends of Morston Church (reg.1099831). Our goal is to offer the best value for money on Abebooks, ie. the lowest price for the condition of the book. We love buying and selling books, so will try to make your buying experience as easy and pleasant as possible.
