"[one of] this fall's highly anticipated design titles from
AD100 talent, filled with remarkable spaces and expert advice.
Greenberg...reflects on past residential and commercial projects
around the country..."
--Architectural Digest
"This inspiring Rizzoli monograph displays 14 of Greenberg's most
recent residential projects and seven institutional and commercial
undertakings for blue-chip clients including Harrison Ford, Martha
Stewart and Bergdorf Goodman. This book proves the resiliency with
which the Classical tradition can accommodate ever-changing
contemporary needs."
--Period Homes Magazine
"The past comes alive through Greenberg's historically inspired
buildings. The pages explore the private homes, apartments, and
public buildings that Greenberg and collaborating artisans have
transformed into detailed, timeless masterpieces."
--At Home In Fairfield County Magazine "Allan Greenberg:
Classical Architect is the architect's long-awaited monograph
that showcases the skills that distinguish him from the rest--from
a broad range of works and decorative expression to the thoughtful
doses of detailed ornament and traditionally styled facades he's
known for."
--Editor at Large
Each page is saturated from edge to edge with examples of both
important residential & commercial projects (including original
architectural drawings), with every image transcending a quiet
beauty in line & form. I can safely say that not only will this
text serve as a source of pure visual joy, but one that I will
forever refer to for inspiration and application of classical
design elements & details, a style standard that Mr. Greenberg has
championed...I highly recommend adding this comprehensive
masterpiece to your literary collection.
--Duchess Fare An ample showcase of traditionalist ranges
and styles, livened throughout by elegant experiment. The selection
of photographs is excellent, and Greenberg's essays and explanatory
texts are uniformly illuminating.
