Neoclassical Architecture

Neoclassical Architectrue meaning "new" classical is a form of architecture starting in the mid 18th century. This form of architecture is a newer version of Greek and Roman architecture focusing on walls, pillars, and domes. A key characteristic of Neoclassical Architecture is that this form focused on the separate parts of a building and how each section has its own personal feel and contribution to the entire structure. Neoclassical Architecture is still around in this century as well.
In Britain a number of architects are active in the neoclassical style. Two new university Libraries, Quinlan Terry's Maitland Robinson Library at Downing College and ADAM Architecture's Sackler Library illustrate that the approach taken can range from the traditional, in the former case, to the unconventional, in the latter case. The majority of new neoclassical buildings in Britain are private houses. Firms like Francis Johnson & Partners specialise in new country houses. (www.wikipedia.org)
