This comprehensive overview of the architectural careers of Charles and Henry Greene is the crowning achievement of Randell Makinson's career as the foremost authority on their works. Makinson organizes the projects of Greene and Greene into recognizable periods and styles, beginning in 1894 in Pasadena, rising to their masterworks crested from 1907-1909, and culminating in their separate but cooperative careers in the teens, with Charles practicing in Carmel and Henry remaining in Pasadena. It is the yin and yang that the brothers brought to each project which is cause for that undeniable spirit pervading each of their joint works, says Makinson. The Greene brothers' sensual blending of architecture, landscape, interiors, furnishings, and the decorative arts is the hallmark of their Craftsman style. New color photography throughout highlights their furniture and lighting designs, as well as their classic bungalow-style exteriors. The book also includes some important archival images and plans. This is a must-have addition to every architectural library.
