THE ORDERS
Five hand-cast plaster tablets documenting the classical orders of architecture — the foundational grammar of the well-made interior, rendered at the highest standard of American craft.
Measuring 18 inches wide by 24 inches tall, each tablet documents one of the five classical orders: Tuscan, Doric, Ionic, Corinthian and Composite, and presents the cornice, capital and the start of the column shaft of its order, complete with entablature, frieze and ornamental detail. The collection is inspired by Vignola’s The Five Orders of Architecture (1562).
The Complete Set of Five
One complete grammar of classical architecture — hand-cast in plaster by the finest architectural atelier in North America and designed to hang in the rooms, offices, and studios of anyone who takes the built world seriously.
