OVER THE YEARS the Institute of Classical Architecture & Art in collaboration with Classical Excursions has sponsored extraordinary and inspiring classical architectural tours held throughout England, Scotland and Ireland. Turning to the UK’s world-renowned capital, we invite you to join us for several exceptional days touring Private London, May 22 – 27, 2019. The great and diverse city with lasting imperial connotations, as well as a major financial and trade center developed over centuries, is the background for a wealth of superb traditional architecture and design. With this in mind, the tour will take in an array of important sites, from opulent city residences to creative designer flats. Having led two highly successful architectural tours for ICAA, Clive Aslet, renowned architectural historian, author of twenty books, journalist and former editor-in-chief of Country Life magazine, will carry on with the six-day London tour. Special events including private dinners will take place at such sites as the fabulous Sir John Soane’s Museum; spectacular Syon House; House of St. Barnabas Club, a building dating from the 1740s with its fine example of English Rococo-style plasterwork, and the Camden home of architect John and Erica Simpson. Overnight accommodations have been arranged at the historic, newly refurbished, five-star Dukes Hotel located on St. James Square in the heart of elegant Mayfair.

Driehaus Prize Laureate James S. Ackerman posthumously presented the Henry Hope Reed Award Robert Adam, an architect known for his scholarship as well as his practice, has been named the recipient of the 2017 Richard H. Driehaus Prize at the University of Notre Dame. Adam, the 15th Driehaus Prize laureate, will be awarded the $200,000 prize and a bronze miniature of the Choregic Monument of Lysikrates during a ceremony on March 25 (Saturday) in Chicago. In conjunction with the Driehaus Prize, the $50,000 Henry Hope Reed Award, given annually to an individual working outside the practice of architecture who has supported the cultivation of the traditional city, its architecture and art, will be presented posthumously to architectural historian James S. Ackerman. Additionally, on the occasion of the 15th anniversary of the Driehaus Prize, the jury has elected to honor the Congress for the New Urbanism (CNU) with a special award for contributions to the public realm. “Throughout his career, Robert Adam has engaged the critical issues of our time, challenging contemporary attitudes toward architecture and urban design. He has written extensively on the tensions between globalism and regionalism as we shape our built environment,” said Michael Lykoudis, Driehaus Prize jury chair and Francis and Kathleen Rooney Dean of Notre Dame’s School of Architecture. “Sustainability is at the foundation of his work, achieved through urbanism and architecture that is respectful of local climate, culture and building customs.” Adam received his architectural education at Westminster University and was a Rome Scholar in 1972–73.

  • 1 Twickenham Rediscovered
    TWICKENHAM REDISCOVERED – TRANSFORMING TWICKENHAM NEW HEART FOR TWICKENHAM A RESPONSE TO RECENT PUBLIC CONSULTATION July, 2017 INTRODUCTION As a resident of the Borough since 1948, as a resident of Twickenham since 1983, as a chartered architect working in Twickenham, and as life-member of the Twickenham Society, I set out below my response to the recent public consultation ‘Twickenham Rediscovered – Transforming Twickenham - New Heart for Twickenham’, referring to the material displayed in the Clarendon Hall at York House, Twickenham in June and July; to the 17-page, A.3-format document available at the exhibition; and to the separate, one-page ‘Twickenham Rediscovered: Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)’ document. I have also had the opportunity of a useful conversation with the Project Manager, Darren Jacob at the Clarendon Hall. In part, these comments draw upon my observations of December, 2015 responding to the Council’s consultation on the original proposals for the Twickenham Riverside site prepared by Quinlan and Francis Terry Architects, and my observations of December, 2016 responding to the Council’s consultation on the revised proposals for the site prepared by Francis Terry and Associates*. Many of my earlier comments in relation to those previous proposals remain relevant in relation to the latest proposals. However, in submitting these comments, I have had regard to the changes effected to the original and subsequent proposals shown in the latest proposals prepared by Francis Terry and Associates. Once again, the Council’s carrying-out further public consultation on emerging proposals for the future development of a key and long-unresolved part of Twickenham’s riverside adjacent to Water Lane and The Embankment is to be keenly welcomed.

  • Neoclassical Architecture 1 Neoclassical Architecture
    Neoclassical architecture 1 Neoclassical architecture Neoclassical architecture was an architectural style produced by the neoclassical movement that began in the mid-18th century, both as a reaction against the Rococo style of anti-tectonic naturalistic ornament, and an outgrowth of some classicizing features of Late Baroque. In its purest form it is a style principally derived from the architecture of Classical Greece and the architecture of Italian Andrea Palladio. The Cathedral of Vilnius (1783), by Laurynas Gucevičius Origins Siegfried Giedion, whose first book (1922) had the suggestive title Late Baroque and Romantic Classicism, asserted later[1] "The Louis XVI style formed in shape and structure the end of late baroque tendencies, with classicism serving as its framework." In the sense that neoclassicism in architecture is evocative and picturesque, a recreation of a distant, lost world, it is, as Giedion suggests, framed within the Romantic sensibility. Intellectually Neoclassicism was symptomatic of a desire to return to the perceived "purity" of the arts of Rome, the more vague perception ("ideal") of Ancient Greek arts and, to a lesser extent, sixteenth-century Renaissance Classicism, the source for academic Late Baroque. Many neoclassical architects were influenced by the drawings and projects of Étienne-Louis Boullée and Claude Nicolas Ledoux. The many graphite drawings of Boullée and his students depict architecture that emulates the eternality of the universe. There are links between Boullée's ideas and Edmund Burke's conception of the sublime. Pulteney Bridge, Bath, England, by Robert Adam Ledoux addressed the concept of architectural character, maintaining that a building should immediately communicate its function to the viewer.

  • The Future of Classicism by Clive Aslet
    Features June 2018 The future of classicism by Clive Aslet On the state and prospect of classical architecture. lassicism is a broad river that has run through Western architecture for two-and-a-half C millennia. A generation ago it seemed that the stream had reduced to a trickle. Only a small phalanx of recondite architects really understood the classical language of architecture; they were generally employed by private patrons whose social as well as architectural ideas were not at the cutting edge. And yet now, if not quite in full spate, the river has recaptured a degree of vigor. The flow has quickened, the banks are beginning to brim. What has happened, and what does the future hold? Since this represents a revival, a word should be said on this subject at the outset. Revivals are a constant—indeed inevitable—theme of classical architecture, to the point of being almost a defining feature. Even Greek architecture, later regarded as the fons et origo of the classical system, evolved out of—and harked back to—an ancient tradition, now lost. It may have been deliberately archaic, using past forms beyond their natural sell-by date. To engineers, post-and-lintel construction, which forms the basis of all Greek architecture, is inferior to the arch, which can be built cheaper, using smaller pieces of stone. And yet the Greeks cannot have used it in ignorance of the arch; arches were being used elsewhere in the ancient world and travelers must have seen them. Trabeation had a meaning for the Greeks, perhaps rooted in earlier phases of their culture.

Müller, the owner of an art gallery in Germany, planned to host think-tanks at a remote location in Tenerife. His plan was to foster the preservation of European culture, one that for Müller sets standards for proper manners and good behaviour through art and cultural activities. The artistic and architectural setting mediated and cultivated these standards, the demise of which caused the crisis Müller saw in the world. For Krier the project was affiliated with the Rational Architecture exhibition of 1973 and the Reconstruction of the European City Movement. The reception of the Atlantis project is coloured by three factors. First, from the beginning of the 1970s to the early 1990s, Krier went from being included in a select group of AA School teachers, to becoming an outsider of that same group and its intellectual sphere. Second, the client for the project wanted to be a pioneer in the cultural sector and use its larger socio-political influence for ideological purposes.

  • Nuovo Classicismo: L'architettura Come Senso Di Appartenenza
    Nuovo classicismo: l’architettura come senso di appartenenza Nuovo classicismo: l’architettura come senso di appartenenzadi Giuseppe Baiocchi e Liliane Jessica Tami del 28/02/2019 L’architettura post-moderna detiene oramai, dagli anni sessanta del Novecento, un primato incontrastato sia all’interno delle Accademie Universitarie, sia nel primato delle costruzioni. Nonostante tale indirizzo dottrinale sia molto marcato, timidamente, con quieta grandezza e sobria eleganza, diversi architetti hanno riscoperto le forme e le armonie dell’architettura classica e revivalista.I più importanti teorici del nuovo stile architettonico, denominato Neourbanesimo e Nuovo Classicismo, sono Pier Carlo Bontempi (1954), Quinlan Terry (1937) e Léon Krier (1946), quest’ultimo architetto di fiducia del principe di Galles Charles Philip Arthur George Mountbatten-Windsor (1948). Nella foto da sinistra a destra: Pier Carlo Bontempi (Fornovo di Taro, 1954) è un architetto italiano, esponente del Neourbanesimo e del Nuovo classicismo. Egli pone una particolare enfasi in merito al contesto urbano e alla continuità con le tradizioni architettoniche; John Quinlan Terry CBE (24 luglio 1937 a Hampstead) è un architetto britannico. È stato educato alla Bryanston School e alla Architectural Association . Era un allievo dell’architetto Raymond Erith , con il quale ha formato la partnership Erith & Terry; Léon Krier (7 aprile 1946) è un architetto lussemburghese , teorico dell’architettura e urbanista , il primo e più importante critico del Modernismo architettonico e fautore di New Traditional Architecture e New Urbanism . In un’epoca svuotata dall’elemento del sacro, dal modesto studio dei luoghi e da una approssimativa progettazione in moduli, il gusto irrazionale è arrivato ad erigere il brutalismo e il parametrismo.
