ArchitectureWeek Description
Architect Owen Jones was a prolific and influential force in the Victorian world of architecture and design. This review of his work, captured through drawings and photographs, fills a gap in the history of design. His signature projects include the interior of Joseph Paxton's magnificent World's Fair Crystal Palace in London, St. James Hall, the Crystal Palace Bazaar, Osler's Glass Shop, and Eynsham Hall at Oxford. He is also author of "Grammar of Ornament," which remains influential to this day. Amazon Customer Average Rating:
