A Work of Beauty: The Architecture and Landscape of Rashtrapati Bhavan

Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Hardcover. Zustand: New. 270pp.The Rashtrapati Bhavan is part of the narrative of international architecture and town-planning, which entered a new phase at the beginning of the 20th century. It is the last of many ?places? built in Delhi over centuries. It is also the last of the palatial residences built by the British in India. The designing of the Viceroy?s House marked a crucial moment in the balance between Indian and British builders, an issue touching the question of style and substance, as well as of the relation between western and indigenous skills. Edwin Lutyens stood away from the suggestions that he was offered, and delineated a structure balanced against designed open spaces, which has until now defied definition. Its setting in symmetrical estate conveyed a sense of a Garden City adapted to the north Indian climate.The same symmetry and verdure continued beyond, to the city extending from the Ridge to the river, with its own ecological harmony. The building, the estate and the city should be seen as a whole. an intervention in the history of India?s monuments and towns. New Delhi was first and last completely planned city in British India.
