This course takes an integrated approach to design of the built environ- ment, beginning with ancient egypt, continuing through the Renaissance, and ending in the late 8th century with english neoclassicism, French empire, and the American Federal-period styles. In slide-illustrated lectures the instructor discusses the major designs of leading architects and arti- sans, and explores the significance of function, form, and ornament in relation to social and economic conditions.
