The Architecture of George Pace - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Primarily a detailed and illustrated account of the built and written works of the 20th-century architect, George G.Pace, this book is also a study of the fundamentals of church architecture, in terms of new buildings, restoration and furnishings. The full range of his work is covered from building new churches to conserving ancient cathedrals, from designing wrought-iron fittings and lettering in stone to instructing embroideresses on new vestments. Many of George Pace's ideas raise issues at the heart of today's debate on the direction of modern architecture and design. The author, Peter Pace, son of George Pace, is himself an architect specializing in the conservation of churches and other ancient buildings. He is secretary to the York Georgian Society, Member of the York Civic Trust Council, and Trustee of the Yorkshire Buildings Preservation Trust.
