This is the only publication that presents a modern interpretation
of the Classical Orders. The new edition of this successful title
now includes the proportions in both metric and imperial
measurements to make the orders more accessible and to provide a
valuable reference for designers. The inclusion of both 100-part

James Gibbs - one of the 18th century authors of standardized
proportioning systems - and his influence in America. Along with
additional plates, this book gives a clear introduction to those
not familiar with the classical genre and is an easy to follow
guide which assists architects, interior designers and conservators
with the quality of their design. 1. The only detailed contemporary
guide to the classical orders available 2. Presents the
proportioning system in both metric and imperial for ease of
understanding 3. An easily accessible introduction to the subject
