Here are Sample page images from this CD < p=""> The Dutch Colonial House It’s origin, design, modern plan and construction with photographs of old examples and American adaptations of the style By A Embury 1913. Contents Introduction The Genesis of the style Materials The treatment of the roof Doors and windows Plan The treatment of the principal rooms Furniture and decoration This is a wonderful book, perhaps a remembrance of simple times past or perhaps a progenitor of times to come and the restoration of comfortable country living that is the coming trend. Another of the country house library series, it shows off the beauty of Dutch Colonials with all the enthusiasm of someone who truly loves them and loves style, grace, and architecture. Human needs have not changed much over millennia and eventually, for each environment, folks realize that the same basic design requirements are there to make a comfortable domicile and residential experience for folks. Here we find a book full of design ideas and hints and discussion of the half timber home genre, a kind of structure of strength and grace to fit well with a gentle kind country life, warmth, and a sensuous living experience. Written and illustrated with drawings and pictures back in 1913, it is even more relevant and useful today than when it was published, it educates us not only on the details of style and construction, but on the history and evolution of Dutch Colonial Architecture. Wonderful add. Today many of the tradecraft bodies of knowledge have faded and here we find them available for restoration or new construction or design work, easily accessible. While Dutch Colonial Styles and construction is neither old world or new, it does give us a context of the transition time in architecture from old formal styles to a new more practical living experience designed for a more modern time of developing industrialization, yet till respecting the comfortable brick and warmth of the past designs and styles. From examples all over the country we find robust and honest discussion of the context to American Style and versions as well and great discussion of both the style issues and the practical issues of such designs and technology solutions. Wonderful clear descriptions, illustrations, discussion, and photographs make all crystal clear. Whether you are a home-owner, an architect, engineer, historian, or just love great design and architecture for the art and beauty, this book will become a favorite rapidly. This one is a bit more aesthetic than technical but great for the many pictures and great descriptions of rooms and their function and treatment of this style. Even a bit on period and style furniture that was common in these homes. Great read, very useful reference for style and ideas or restoration and for history.
