Eschewing the clean, precise, empty spaces minimalist themes promote, some homeowners and designers are adopting a resplendent, grand, baroque, look to their spaces. As a reaction against minimalism, this movement could only have one name: maximalism. This new movement is explored through exquisite photography of lush projects drawn from across the world." ; Contents: The beauty of excess -- Les Trois Garçons -- Marianne Fasslet House -- The Glass Dwelling -- MacConnel-Lowe House -- Oz Residence -- Staudenmeyer House -- House for an executive -- Ecological house for the future -- Duggie Fields residence -- Getter House -- Les Harris Studio -- Amauri Jr. House -- Stencil Residence -- Lenny Kravitz House -- Collinance Castle -- Dwelling in South Hill Park -- Estevao House -- Teresa Sepulcre House -- Edelman Dwelling -- Virginia Bates Residence -- Marie Beltrami Hosue -- Somoroff Loft -- Pompeii Apartment ; important design volume defining a new style : Maximalism ; FINE/FINE.

2pp., 12mo. Bifolium. In fair condition, aged and creased, with traces of a grey paper mount on the reverse of the second leaf, which also has a closed tear unobtrusively repaired with archival tape. Addressing his letter to 'Mr Edwin [sic] Draper | Vincent Square | Westminster' he apologises profusely for missing an appointment: 'Before leaving the theatre Saturday evening last, I made a memorandum of the hour appointed to call at your residence to day.' At the time of the writing of the letter, 5p.m., he has 'just been looking for your card and place of residence and find that I should have called at 3 1/2 PM instead of 5 1/2 as I had got it in my head'. He hopes that Draper will not think him 'ungenerous', and assures him that the visit would have given him great pleasure. In 1867, having returned to his Wisconsin farm after serving in the Union army, Bates made a bet with a neighbour that he could not walk through the southern states with the Union flag, owing to the bitterness and Confederate sentiments of the southerners. Having been reported on by Mark Twain, Bates won his bet, as everywhere he went he was greeted with kindness. 1872 saw a similar bet ($1000 to Bates's $100), when he repeated his perambulations in England, then considered to be harbouring Confederate sympathies. Such was the positive response that halfway through the English march he cabled back to America: 'Cancel wager. I regard this mission as something finer than a matter of money.'.
