About this book
The discussion of house planning describes an architect arranging rooms, doorways, and windows so that wall areas may be divided symmetrically and offer spaces for a few choice pictures. The discussion says house planning begun with clear vision and carried through with taste and delicacy in every detail may often produce harmony as pleasing to people of artistic temperament as a symphony. The section on fundamental design principles identifies adaptation to purpose as the first law to observe in making a good design.
The chair-making instructions specify a woodworker's stock list and describe curved arms that may be fashioned by band sawing. The sawing directions require an allowance for waste when working the stock down to the dimensions in the drawing.
