Description

Robert Adam's London Produced in Conjunction with an Exhibition of the Same Title at Sir John Soane's Museum. This book explores the designs of Robert Adam, one of the most influential architects of the 18th century, who was based in London for over half his life. The publication highlights lesser-known buildings alongside more familiar ones, showcasing Adam's innovative work throughout the city. Each project featured is plotted on Horwood's map of London (1792-99), allowing readers to trace Adam's designs as they navigate the city and imagine what might have been if more of his plans had come to fruition.
