When presented in fine line drawings by a trained and observant artist-historian, architectual elements are among the finest sources of pure design inspiration.
Here are the detailed facades and interiors of numerous rowhouses still standing in Boston, New York City, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington, D.C., ranging from the late 1700s to the mid 1900s.
Styles represented include Georgian, Federal, Greek Revival, Early and High Victorian, Edwardian, Beaux Arts, Vernacular and a number of fascinating composites and adaptations -- a feast for anyone interested in design, architecture or the social history of urban living in the United States.
