Arthur Stratton · Series II. Circular and Rectangular Forms United
Plate XIII. Circular and Rectangular Forms United
Plate XIII. — This shows circular and rectangular plan forms united in a building of three principal parts with connecting links. Such a building suggests a motive for orangeries, public shelters in parks or on the esplanades of watering places. The scheme also lends itself to the requirements of a sculpture gallery in the open or a memorial containing mural tablets.
Public-domain text (1925), transcribed from the archive.org OCR of the first edition and cleaned for reading: line-end hyphens rejoined, running heads, page numbers and the captions of the text figures removed, and obvious misreadings corrected. Stratton’s hundred plates are not reproduced, nor their engraved captions or the index to the illustrations; each Series is divided at his commentary on each plate, and the chapter titles follow the plate headings. The live figures are this book’s own.
