The book I knew Dowling could write

New Classicism had its problems - a somewhat inconsistent group of classical practitioners supported by frequently poor photography and summary text. Well, Dr. Dowling has all that worked out to beautiful effect in this volume. The photography, plans, and sketches are all superb, and what better firm to profile than the prolific and supremely talented Harrison Design Associates. As you might expect if you're familiar with Dowling's work and Atlanta's (and Georgia Tech's) long tradition of breeding the "gentleman architect" for wealthy clients, this is a profile of mostly grand residential designs. But what magnificent designs they are! And to make it even better, Dowling has included an appendix of projects in progress or proposed. You can see from the types of projects Harrison is accepting that they're trying to branch out into institutional design. That would be a treat for all of us. If you can't afford they're work, or you can't get to Georgia to see it with your own eyes, this book is a wonderful substitute for viewing the work of one of the country's great neo-classical design firms.

Fine Classical Tradition

This is a wonderful pictorial of the work Harrison Design Associates, who have been in the forefront of the recent revival of classically designed architecture. The photos are superb and present the projects in an appealing manner.
