Description
London: Published by Josiah Taylor ...., [1831]. First Edition. Later issue.. Original publisher's grey, paste paper boards.. Good; some spotting throughout; some abrasion to the joints.. Large 4to, 10 pp. + 30 black and white lithographic plates. The author's first book and the first book that was entirely devoted to designs for suburban dwellings. In the late 1820s the outskirts of London underwent rapid development planned by John Nash. Regents Park, St John's Wood, Paddington, Bayswater and the resort towns of Cheltenham, Tunbridge Wells etc. were the objects of Trendall's book. It is the first treatise entirely devoted to this "new" architecture that had only been treated sporadically. He also noted the need for designs of a, " ... more detailed and simple nature", hence the inclusion of instructions regarding windows (casement and sash), cornice (interior and exterior) construction, roof trusses, and moldings. Costs were included for each of the nine dwellings detailed in the 30 plates. In this issue the title page has had the mis-spellings corrected and the imprint changed from Trendall to Josiah Taylor. Trendall self-published (each plate has a legend as being published by him) this treatise and sold off sheets to enhance his sales. Archer, Literature of British Domestic Architecture, #334.1 - with a variant imprint and not noting the issue point; Colvin, pp. 836-837; see Stern, Paradise Planned.
