- Architectural Ornamentalism : Detailing in the Craft Tradition / by Kemp, Jim.(CARDINAL)180548; Perron, Robert,photographer.(CARDINAL)755322;
Includes bibliographical references (page 169) and index."This groundbreaking book presents a comprehensive look at a new direction in home design: the incorporation of hand-crafted detailing into the very structure of domestic spaces. Doors, windows, gates, stairs, floors, walls, and ceilings all become decorative elements of detailing in the hands of a new breed of artisans. Working in the classic craft media of wood, glass, fiber, metal, and ceramics and masonry, these craftspeople pay respect to tradition with their skilled workmanship, while personalizing environments with details that have a contemporary sensibility - and adding to the intrinsic value of the houses. Architectural Ornamentalism begins with a close look at two outstanding examples of houses filled with thoroughly integrated detailing to give an overview of the uses of various types of ornamentalism. Next, five key chapters - each featuring a different medium - illustrate individual details. More than sixty artisans and one hundred projects are showcased, offering professionals and homeowners a wealth of inspiring models. Among the innovative projects presented is a wood staircase that turns into a slide, a stained glass window that is an abstract interpretation of a family tree, an elegant punched-metal front door, a historically inspired floor-cloth that appears to be real terra cotta tiles, and a classically influenced ceramic doorway that is decorated with contemporary geometric forms. Full-color photographs show the details in their actual settings, illustrating the many options available for tailoring living spaces to reflect personal aesthetics. The comprehensive text gives illuminating information on how the detail is incorporated into the room, how its design is approached by the craftsperson, how it is made, and what materials are used. So that readers can implement similar projects in their clients' or their own homes, Architectural Ornamentalism features a section that tells how to locate suitable craftspeople; explains fee schedules, contracts, and the responsibilities of both artisan and clients; and gives advice from professionals about how to assess the quality of crafted pieces. Also included is a complete sources list of craftspeople, supplemented with the names and addresses of architectural salvage yards and manufacturers of new details, as well as museums and publications that specialize in architectural crafts. Architectural Ornamentalism is more than a showcase of contemporary details. It is an authoritative overview of architectural crafts today, and a fresh, new look at a loved and honored tradition." --- Subjects: Architecture; Decoration and ornament, Architectural; Interior architecture; Architecture; Decoration and ornament, Architectural; Bauornament;
