Book Synopsis Robert and James Adam, Architects of the Age of Enlightenment by : Ariyuki Kondo
Book excerpt: During the second half of the eighteenth century British architecture moved away from the dominant school of classicism in favour of a more creative freedom of expression. At the forefront of this change were architect brothers Robert and James Adam. Kondo’s work places them within the context of eighteenth-century intellectual thought.
