Description
"This volume is a testament to Mark Lemmon's ideas of architectural civility, solidity, and classicism - considered retrograde by many architectural historians, though taking on a renewed relevance after the post-modernist revisionism of the 1970s." "Having completed his architectural education at MIT and a tour of duty as a military engineer in Europe during World War I, Lemmon, a Texas native, moved to Dallas and began a distinguished career spanning over forty years from the 1920s to the 1960s. Lemmon's greatest contributions to Texas architecture were his designs for educational and religious institutions. His most important clients were the Dallas Independent School District, Southern Methodist University (for which he designed eighteen Georgian style buildings), the Port Arthur School District, and the University of Texas at Austin. In styles that vary from Romanesque to Moderne, these buildings define their neighborhoods and place their users in a system of civilized architectural allusions that raises the level of urban culture."--BOOK JACKET.
