 LESSON

NEOCLASSICAL ARCHITECTURE

Neoclassical architectural styles started in the mid-18th century. It turned

away from the grandeur of Rococo style and the Late Baroque. In its purest
form, neoclassical architecture was a style principally derived from the
architecture of Classical Greece and Rome and the architectural designs of the
Italian architect Andre Palladio.

TYPES OF NEOCLASSICAL ARCHITECTURE

TEMPLE STYLE

Temple style building design was based on an ancient temple. Many temple
style buildings features a peristyle (a continuous line of columns around a
building), a rare feature of Renaissance architecture.

PALLADIAN STYLE

Palladian buildings were based on Andrea Palladio’s style of villa construction.

Some of the buildings feature a balustrade which is a railing with vertical
supports along the edge of the roof. There are vertical supports within a
balustrade known as “balusters” or “spindles”. It is also a classical method of
crowning a building that has a flat or low lying roof.

Robert Adam (1728-1792) Britain

One of the famous architects in this era is Robert Adam. He was known as the
Palladian architect of the Neoclassical Era. He designed two well-know
American civic buildings - the White House and the United States Capitol. He
had also designed many country houses.

These mansions illustrate that while Palladian architecture shares certain basic
features (derived from the villas of Palladio), it takes diverse forms.

CLASSICAL BLOCK STYLE

The building features a rectangular or square plan, with a flat roof and an
exterior rich in classical details. The exterior features a repeated classical
pattern or series of arches and/or columns. The overall impression of such a
building was a huge, classically-decorated rectangular block.
 Classical block aesthetic was also known as “Beaux-Arts style”, since it was
developed principally by the French Ecole des Beaux-Arts (School of Fine Arts).

Classical block architecture also flourished in the United States, particularly in

New York.

Henri Labrouste – is a famous architect of

classical block style. His masterpiece is the
Library of Sainte-Genevieve.
