Interesting discussion of the appeal of classical form., April 29, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Classical Architecture: The Poetics of Order (Paperback)
A highly useful if somewhat cursory look at the principals of classical architectural form. As an artist I found it to be very illuminating. Even more important was the author's attempt at developing a modern aesthetic which accounts for the lasting appeal of the classical.
