St. Andrew's Church, Glasgow School of Art, First Church of Christ Scientist
Presents three outstanding'public buildings'to demonstrate how Arts & Crafts architects worked within varying environments.
St. Anrew's Church, Roker, is a striking creation - a collaboration of work by architect Edward Prior, artists and craftsmen builders.
Glasgow School of Art, designed by Charles Rennie Mackintosh, is a syntesis of opposites - austere and delicate, dark and light, derivative and innovative.
Bernard Maybeck's First Church of Christ Scientist, Berkeley, California, combines Byzantine, Romanesque, and Gothic elements with American Arts and Crafts idioms.
Describes how each building responds to its context, while retaining its unique character.
