Having earned his reputation designing domestic buildings, he was soon given scope to expand his practice to the outdoors and to public projects. This second volume contains his extensive contributions to garden design and town planning, as well as the finest examples of his bridges and a selection of monumental civic constructions. These include various university buildings, the Johannesburg Art Gallery, the Washington Embassy and the Viceroy's Palace in New Delhi. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe genius of Lutyens is now universally recognized. In the work featured in this book, we can now see not just the professionalism of a great architect, but also the loving care with which he set down the most minute detail, with the result that this is one of the few books in existence that can be used to provide working drawings. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAlso available: \u003ci\u003eThe Architecture of Sir Edwin Lutyens: Volume 1, Country Houses\u003c\/i\u003e ISBN 9781788842181.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 292\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.42 x 14.33 x 12.05 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 02, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53468856549683,"sku":"9781788842303","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/s3xxpj-vy.myshopify.com\/products\/the-architecture-of-sir-edwin-lutyens-volume-2-gardens-delhi-washington-hardcover","provider":"The Celestial Starlit Phoenix ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
