Abstract

This detailed source book is really an encyclopedia of house types and floor plan types. It describes and analyzes the elements of manufactured interior architecture current in America from 1870 to 1940. Divided into four sections: elements, support systems, design systems, and building types. It explores the dominant design systems in American homes and public buildings. The over 280 illustrations range from windows, stair work, wallpaper, and heating and ventilation systems to bungalows, lighting, and bathroom fixtures. A valuable source for architects, preservations, buildings, interior designers, and historians.
