Seller's Description:
Used-Very Good in Very Good jacket. Virtually no other form of American architecture is as widespread or as popular as the Spanish Revival style. From bungalows and mansions to gas stations and government buildings, its influence-and its fans-can be found everywhere. Yet there has never been a single comprehensive survey of this diverse category of design. In 'Red Tile Style, ' Arrol Gellner describes the rich history and fertile permutations of Spanish Revival architecture. Packed with more than 250 lush color photographs taken by Douglas Keister, this handsome volume ranges from the style's origins in the Spanish colonial churches of the Southwest to its emergence as a commercial form in late-nineteenth-century railroad stations to the nationwide explosion in popularity sparked by the 1915 Panama-California Exposition in San Diego. Learned, lucid, and pleasing to the eye, Red Tile Style explores the far-reaching Spanish Revival influence in today's architecture in all its variations and adaptations. For the serious student and architecture fan alike, this book is truly a landmark. Packed with more than 250 lush color photos taken by Douglas Keister, this handsome volume explores one of America's most popular architectural styles--Spanish Revival. Dust jacket lightly rubbed. Bottom edges of covers with light wear; otherwise, very nice, clean, tight copy free of any marks. Wrapped in complimentary Brodart dust jacket protector.
I have had this book for about five years and still discover something new each time I look at it. The book is filled with wonderful pictures of small homes, mansions, public buildings and architectural details that make up the world of 'Red Tile Style'. The variety of content, both written and photographed is amazing. The book is a treasure for readers interested in California Spanish Colonial architecture and I highly recommend it.
