Skynyrd over the final credits was EVERYTHING, lol! Personal style query: Which 18th Century Architectural variation on Neo Classicism is your favorite? French or Italian Baroque? Palladianism? Pure Georgian? English Baroque? Colonial and Federalist? Love to read more details (me, I'm TOTALLY all about the Georgian in its most red brick, Hanoverian elegance....). Always a joy to watch your work, can't wait for the upcoming ones!
Thanks again for watching. I like all architecture styles... except rococo, but I can still respect it when well-done which means over the top gross. So for me, all those variations can result in a great building.
Did you catch my Palladio video? ua-cam.com/video/K8nA5-EWo28/v-deo.html
@@architecturecodex9818 Oh, absolutely, it's a fave, of course! I will advocate that Rococo Style works best for my sensibilities in large public rooms (all those glorious Monastic Libraries of the mid 18th century, c'mon, right???), and the French version in living spaces is actually rather delicate and quite delightful...until of course, it deteriorates into the kitschiness of oh, say, THE BREAKERS (not a fan) or MARBLE HOUSE (definitely not a fan, lol) or the recent Le Style du Grand Orange Monstre, who occupied the White House for a spell...but, we won't discuss Mar a Lago, now, will we? After all, we're Gentlemen here........!!!.... BTW, would love to get an assessment video from you comparing the various Newport GIlded Age Mansions, just a thought, especially The Elms, which I DO totally love. Looking forward to the next one!
@@williamsmith5549 actually scripting a video on two Trump Towers and will comment on the interior design. Let's see if I can do it without causing a riot.
Very droll.
I think I can take that as a compliment or an insult but I am not sure if it is directed at the building, the video or me. ;-) Thanks for watching and commenting.
