About this book

Carrere & Hastings, Architects by Kate Lemos. Hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780926494428.

CARRERE & HASTINGS, ARCHITECTS is the first complete examination and visual record of the firm s exceptional achievements. Written by four eminent architectural historians and praised by the Journal SAH as substantive, authoritative, and elegant, this lavish slipcased set is a definitive work on the two master architects. Volume I features detailed biographies and a history of the firm, along with a thorough record of their urban designs: commercial and civic structures, urbane parks, and distinguished town houses. Volume II concentrates on their country house and landscape work, a field in which they had no peer, as well as their achievements as designers of churches, academic, and institutional buildings, and festive exhibition pavilions for world s fairs. Illustrated with more than 800 duotone photographs, including 7 gatefolds plates, the set includes a catalog of Carrere & Hastings projects, a roster of the firm s members, and a comprehensive bibliography.
