Domestic Commissions
Reference number:
CI001.S2.D2
Description:
Hubert and Charles Rohault de Fleury received domestic commissions for both urban housing -hôtel particuliers and apartment houses- and rural dwellings -châteaux, country houses and estates. Hubert also executed designs for furniture and garden pavilions. Hubert' work is characterized by restrained classical exteriors and luxurious Empire style interiors; both Charles' exteriors and interiors, especially those for Hôtels Sauvage and Soltykoff, reflect the exuberance of the Second Empire. The CCA albums include drawings from all stages of the design process but with an emphasis on design development drawings. Hubert's albums contain cost calculations and estimates, notes and letters. In general, the drawings by Charles are from a more developed phase of design than Hubert's; Hubert's commissions are more varied than Charles'. Charles' Hôtel Soltykoff (1854)(DR1974:0002:003:001-105) is exemplary of the Second Empire not only in its architectural language, programme and interior decoration, but also its use of mixed stone and iron construction. The album for Hôtel Soltykoff is one of the most comprehensive in the CCA collection. The drawings incorporate several phases of the design process from conceptual ideas to post-construction revisions. Numerous drawings for the structure and exterior ornamentation are included as well as drawings for the embellishment of the interior spaces. The interior drawings are especially interesting for evidence they provide of the palette of colours and ornamental motifs utilized in the Second Empire. Several prints (plates XIX - XXIII) in 'Oeuvre de C. Rohault de Fleury, architecte', which include general plans and elevations (few of which are included in the Hôtel Solytkoff album), are a useful complement to more specific drawings in the album. The Hôtel Sauvage (ca. 1862) album (DR1974:0002:006:001-024) - a set of 24 contract drawings- consists exclusively general plans, sections and elevations. This group of drawings give a good overall sense of both the interior and exterior. Hôtel Sauvage, like Hôtel Soltykoff is also typical of the Second Empire in style and programme. Château de Marcoussis (ca. 1861), for which a group of drawings were acquired in 1986, diverges somewhat in character from the other examples of Charles' domestic works represented in the CCA collection (DR1986:0379 - DR1986:0413). While most of the other houses are strictly classical in planning and design, for Château de Marcoussis, Charles adopted a more romantic asymmetrical château style design. The domestic commissions (1838-1856) in album, DR1974:0002:002:001-094, roughly fall into two categories. The first category consists of single residences - both town and country. The regimentation of plans and façades in the hôtel particular and country houses manifests the continued influence of Durand, yet Charles was also clearly affected by the Second Empire propensity for elaborate façade treatments with decoratively-shaped windows, complex mouldings and extensive rustication. The second category consists of urban apartment building with stores or occasionally offices on the ground floor, apartments, generally two per floor, above and often servants' rooms in the attic. These buildings are articulated in a restrained manner with mouldings, decorative ironwork and some stone ornament.

Hubert' work is characterized by restrained classical exteriors and luxurious Empire style interiors; both Charles' exteriors and interiors, especially those for Hôtels Sauvage and Soltykoff, reflect the exuberance of the Second Empire. The CCA albums include drawings from all stages of the design process but with an emphasis on design development drawings. Hubert's albums contain cost calculations and estimates, notes and letters. In general, the drawings by Charles are from a more developed phase of design than Hubert's; Hubert's commissions are more varied than Charles'. The austere classicism of Hubert's domestic work reflects the prevailing taste of the day and reveals the strong influence of his teacher, Jean Nicholas Louis Durand. The compostional effect of the houses' façades relies on the shape and rhythm of the fenestration and the geometric division by string courses and occasionally, pilasters. Columns are used infrequently as is decorative stonework. The plans are symmetrical and modular. This approach to design is especially evident in the series of proposals for a country house for comte Treilhard (DR1974:0002:034:001-082) and in a group of unidentified designs for houses (DR1974:0002:035:001-034), all of which illustrate an emphasis on plan in the design process and a distinct approach to the composition of the elevations, both derived from Durand. Hubert's domestic work was also influenced by Palladio (see especially DR1974:0002:038:001-029). The interiors and furniture designed by Hubert are typical of the Empire style (1). The drawings in the CCA collection illustrate the materials, palette and ornamental motifs of the period. The garden structures in Hubert's albums are more fanciful than his houses and are either Rustic, Chinoiserie or classical in style (2). His garden designs follow the contemporary French trend for "jardins anglais" with winding paths and naturalistic placement of the vegetation, sometimes in combination with more formal French gardens (3). One of the most comprehensively documented domestic project by Hubert is the Rohault de Fleury House (12-14 rue d'Aguesseau; 1824). The CCA collection contains an interesting series of preliminary drawings for alternate proposals for this house, a number of highly finished wash drawings (including the interior decorative scheme) for the final scheme (DR1974:0002:011:001-08) and several earlier (ca. 1806) proposals (DR1974:0002:035:001-034). The Domaine de la Vallée album (DR1974:0002:025:001-059) is notable for the range of subject matter included as well as for the insights into the character of a working country estate in the nineteenth century. The proposed modifications encompassed both functional (a bridge, a levee, granaries and stables) and aesthetic improvements, such as ornamental garden temples. The renovation of the house also exhibits both functional and aesthetic improvements. (1) Examples of Hubert's interiors and furniture can be found in albums, DR1974:0002:007:001-068, DR1974:0002:011:001-089, DR1974:0002:025:001-059, DR1974:0002:030:001-065 and DR1974:0002:035:001-034. (2) The best examples of his pavilions are found in album, DR1974:0002:038:001-029 with other examples in albums, DR1974:0002:025:001-059, DR1974:0002:030:001-065 and DR1974:0002:035:001-034.

Description:
- This album consists mainly of elevations, sections and plans for a number of domestic commissions by Charles Rohault de Fleury: a house in Cologne, a hothouse for M. Faquet-Lemaitre, two [?] apartment houses and three private houses in Paris, a house for Mme de Lescure, Royan, and the Administration générale des omnibus office building, Paris. Both the drawings for the house in Cologne and the three variant projects for a hothouse are probably presentation drawings. There are contract drawings, probably the architect's copies, for apartment houses for M. Piet and M. Le Comte, and houses for M. Moreau Chaslon, Mme la comtesse de Lubersac, Mme de Lescure and M. Waresquiel. A sheet of cost calculations attached to a preliminary site plan, are probably for M. Waresquiel's house. The first plan for Mme la comtesse de Lubersac's house (DR1974:0002:002:084), and the plans for M. Waresquiel's house are annotated with the functions of the rooms. The architect's copies of the drawings for the country house in Royan, given to the client by the architect, include drawings of the foundations and framework, larger scale elevational and sectional details of the architectural elements, profiles and joinery details. The function within the design process of the prints for the commercial building for the Administration Générale de Omnibus is unclear. The principal elevation (DR1974:0002:002:020) is rendered in watercolour, suggesting it may be a presentation print. The other prints for this building exhibit the same degree of finish as the contract drawings in this album, but the absence of the client's and contractor's signatures and the revision attached to DR1974:0002:002:022 suggests they may be part of the design development stage of the project. Also included in the album is a sheet of preliminary sketches for a tomb for Daguerre (not the photographer) and two small unbound sheets of sketches for unidentified projects (DR1974:0002:002:048 and DR1974:0002:002:028).

Description:
- This album consists mainly of elevations, sections and plans for a number of domestic commissions by Charles Rohault de Fleury: a house in Cologne, a hothouse for M. Faquet-Lemaitre, two [?] apartment houses and three private houses in Paris, a house for Mme de Lescure, Royan, and the Administration générale des omnibus office building, Paris. Both the drawings for the house in Cologne and the three variant projects for a hothouse are probably presentation drawings. There are contract drawings, probably the architect's copies, for apartment houses for M. Piet and M. Le Comte, and houses for M. Moreau Chaslon, Mme la comtesse de Lubersac, Mme de Lescure and M. Waresquiel. A sheet of cost calculations attached to a preliminary site plan, are probably for M. Waresquiel's house.
