Description
Often described as Prince Charles' favourite architect, Quinlan Terry is at home in every traditional style, from Classical Greek to Roman, Gothic to Renaissance, and Baroque to Neo-classical. With intense new interest in classical design, there is a high demand for a compilation of Terry's work, a volume that showcases the ideas and creations of one of the world's most daring traditionalist designers. At the pinnacle of his career this year's winner of the Driehaus Prize, classical architecture's highest honour Quinlan Terry is one of the most celebrated practitioners of the form and also perhaps the most radical. Radical Classicism contains hundreds of lavish colour illustrations and thirty of Terry's designs, including state rooms at 10 Downing Street, a library and residential building at Cambridge University, a cathedral in Essex, and posh houses all over the place. There is a lot of variation, and special mention should be made of the mysterious Barclay brothers' undeniably impressive, if spectacularly repulsive, castellan lair on their private Channel Island - "the largest house built in Britain for at least two centuries." Quite.
