Excerpt from The Practical Book of Architecture The aim of Part I, A Practical Guide to Styles, is to give, as part of a liberal education, a thorough working knowledge of architecture and architectural styles, so far as is necessary for the use of the general reader, and to give it in so succinct and practical a way that it may easily be assimilated. Part II, A Practical Guide to Building, adds to the 'above knowledge information of a more practical kind for those who are about to have erected for them houses or other buildings, either in the city or the country, at either large or small expense, or who may be connected in any way with Advisory Boards for the erection of buildings of a more public character. The chapter on arrangements with architect and contractors treats of a subject never before presented to the lay reader in a direct manner, and a glance at the Table of Contents will show how helpful this portion of the work will prove.

Excerpt from The Practical Book of Architecture Regardless of the extent to which any special subject may be treated for general reading, there must always be certain terms of a more or less technical nature, an understanding of which is essential even on the part of the general reader. It is the intention, therefore, of the following seven pages to illustrate certain of the most common architectural terms. It is obvious that, in limited compass, it would be impossible to illustrate all special architectural terms, nor would it be necessary for the purpose of this book to do so. This brief "Illustrated Terminology," then, is designed to acquaint the reader with the names of certain commonly seen architectural features, familiarity with which should be regarded as a part of everyone's education. In some cases the reader will be enabled to learn the architectural name for an often-noticed feature - will learn, for example, that the wall-space between two arches is called a "spandril." In other cases the reader will be enabled to identify some architectural feature the name but not the nature of which is known - will learn for example, by consulting the "Illustrated Technology," what is a "pediment."

Excerpt from The Practical Book of Garden Architecture The preparation of this book has resulted from years of delightful study of art and architecture in connection with a regular college course, and the art course at the Philadelphia School of Design; from an early developed love for outdoor life; and from an intimate study of beautiful home surroundings in the form of garden architecture during extensive travels in various European countries and throughout the United States. Over twenty of the chapters have been written especially for this book, and, with over a hundred of the illustrations, have never appeared in magazines or other publications. Thanks are due to "American Homes and Gardens," "Suburban Life," and "House Beautiful," for the release of certain of my articles and photographs which form portions of ten chapters. Thanks are due also to "Country Life in America" and "House and Garden" for help and inspiration in the study of various water features, engine power, wall treatments, etc. Suggestions and guide-clippings from these magazines have led to the best results in visiting famous gardens for illustrating interesting types of garden embellishment.

Integrate poetics into real-world spaces by bringing theory down to earth Practical Poetics in Architecture takes poetics out of the theory class and into the design studio, showing architects how the atmospheric and experiential qualities of built structures can be intentionally considered and planned. With an emphasis on analysing and explaining the sensibility of poetics at work in designing and constructing architecture, this book features projects from architects around the world that demonstrate the principles of poetics come to life. The rich illustration of two hundred colour images, including analytical diagrams, plans, sections, and photos, make this insightful guide a highly visual foray into a topic that has thus far remained more theoretical than practical. The text is matter-of-fact and concrete, yet remains richly connected to its forbears and the writings of William Lethaby, Gaston Bachelard, and Steen Eiler Rasmussen. The perspective is contemporary in its examples and its connections to the evolving science of perception. An established seminar topic in theory classes around the world, poetics tends to rely heavily on classic philosophic texts — until now. Practical Poetics in Architecture brings theory down to earth to show architects how to invoke poetics when designing real projects. Integrate poetics principles into real-world designs Consider atmosphere in terms of form, space, and acoustics Study actual projects that bring poetics into real spaces Take cues from analytical diagrams of projects accounting for context Poetics — the accumulated experience of place, space, and culture — has become more critical in recent years as the atmospheric and experiential qualities of built spaces have become more elusive in the virtual age. Practical Poetics in Architecture provides real guidance for real projects, and brings poetics out of the mind and onto the plans.
