Description

Part of a series that places buildings within their historical context, this text considers three Arts and Crafts buildings: Hill House, Helensburgh in Scotland; The Homestead, Frinton-on-Sea in Essex; and Gamble House in Pasadena, California. It includes specially produced technical drawings that explain how the buildings were detailed and put together. The text explains that by studying the three buildings together the reader can determine the architectural similarities and shared influences along with the larger historical and geographical context.
