More About the Author
Product Description
Review
'The Architecture in Detail series is without question one of the most beautifully illustrated and well-documented collections of monographs on individual buildings produced anywhere in the World.'
Product Description
The "Architecture in Detail" series comprises books that focus on individual buildings noted for their exceptional character, innovative design or technical virtuosity. Each volume contains a text by a respected author, a sequence of colour and black-and-white photographs and a set of technical drawings and working details. One of the great works of Arts and Crafts architecture, the Glasgow School of Art is a synthesis of opposites: austere and delicate, dark and light, derivative yet innovative. While the towering outer wall seems to echo the Scottish baronial tradition and the exterior impression is one of imposing grandeur, the interior is a lively and complex set of spaces.

Having visited the Glasgow School of Art, but not being able at the time to see the entire building, as the school was functioning. I found this publication in its presentation and the excellent
photographs etc, very complimentary, in filling the gap in my appreciation of C R Mackintosh's work.
