Voysey and Lutyens

 

Don't really belong together, but the period of english architecture encompassed by the careers of these two very different architects seems to me to be the flowering and synthesis of late Victorian eclecticism.

 

Good architects of this period seem able to operate convincingly from a deep understanding of many architectural languages, and yet remain unbound by them, able to invent highly personal, yet easily assimilable partis: rooted in the histories of many architectures, yet contemporary: highly inventive; often surprising, yet fundamentally connected.
