More than 500 period photographs explore the Spanish Revival
movement (1915-1940) in architecture. Original Spanish and
Mediterranean buildings inspired partrons on "the grand tour" in
Europe to build for themselves these sturdy homes in the 20th
century that reflect a strong Mediterranean heritage. Tiled roofs
and floors, arched windows and passageways, and stone walls and
floors characterize the style. Exquisite details are explored, both
inside and out, from residential, commercial, and public projects.
Sections in the book focus on exterior details including outdoor
rooms and staircases, verandahs, patios, and courtyards, pools,
fountains, chimneys, and garden gates. Inside, revel in beamed
ceilings, fireplaces, tile details, lighting and flooring. In
addition to dozens of private residences, this book tours retail
and commercial spaces, churches, schools, libraries, theaters, and
private clubs. Work by celebrated architects who helped pioneer the
Spanish Revival movement is featured, including George Washington
Smith, Wallace Neff, Gordon Kauffman, Morgan, Walls and Clements,
and many others. Also, some architectural renderings and floor
plans are included. Architects, designers, and remodelers will find
inspiration for today's structures on every page.
