The Studio year book of decorative art, 1925

Charles Geoffrey Holme
4.9/5 (32758 ratings)
Description:Excerpt from The Year Book of Decorative Art, 1914If further proof were required of the healthy condition of this branch of art in Great Britain it may be seen in the appreciation which the work of our architects continues to find outside this country. Not only from the Continent, but from almost all parts of the world commissions have come to British architects, and in this respect Special mention should be made of the individual and artistic work of Mr. Baillie Scott, whose art was never held in higher esteem than it is to-day. Last year we gave several illustrations of a large house designed by him and erected in the neighbourhood of Regent's Park, London. As a frontispiece to this volume we Show a coloured drawing of a house, totally different in Character, designed for a client at Short Hills, New Jersey, who desired to have reproduced some of the qualities Of old En lish half-timber work. How successfully Mr. Baillie Scott has ful led these wishes may be judged from our plate. There was in the district a plentiful supply of Chestnut timber, and this has been extensively utilised. As will be seen by the plan, the main entrance is placed at the Side of the covered entrance to the inner court. From this one enters the reception hall, which is connected with the principal living-rooms by a wide doorway. Beyond, in the main block of the building, are the dining-room and, in the wing which forms the side of the court, the kitchen premises. On the first floor there are eight bedrooms and four bath-rooms, the Space over the covered entrance being used for an oratory. The roofs are covered with English hand-made tiles.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
