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.

Description:
- This reprographic copy shows a design for plaster ornament consisting of a frieze of lightbulbs with electrical cords and swags. - This work is part of an incomplete group of possibly working reprographic copies for Electric House, Battersea Borough, designed by the borough architect, Henry Hyams. The group also includes some reprographic copies which may have been used for publication purposes. - The style of many of these drawings and reprographic copies by Henry Hyams (DR1988:0332 - DR1988:0414) suggests that they were possibly for periodical illustrations. Hyams contributed articles to the periodicals 'The Builder' and 'The Architect'. Two objects in the CCA collections can be directly linked to an article published prior to 1926 in 'The Architect'; a reprographic copy (DR1988:0357) and a drawing (DR1988:0364) (Who's Who in Architecture, 161).

Description:
Triumphal arch flanked by two pairs of fluted Doric columns that have capitals ornamented with grotesques. The arch leads to a coffered barrel vault and grotesques covering both sides of the interior walls. The entablature is also Doric, with metopes featuring bovine skulls and alternating circular ornaments. In the attic story is a quadrilateral cartouche with a Latin inscription that reads “MVLTA RENAS CENTVR QVE NVNCCECIDERE.” On either side of the cartouche are arabesques with anthropomorphic feet and vases/urns that are also decorated with grotesque ornamentation. Above is a series of three scalloped niches. The central niche uses a highly ornamental Corinthian order below a triangular pediment.

DR1990:0047:001-020
Description:
The etchings in this set include designs for various parts of architectural orders including column bases, capitals, and entablatures. There is some overlap with prints in Du Cerceau’s 'Détails d’ordres antiques' (notably elements on Plates 007 and 011), however most of the etchings include novel elements drawn from the type of ornament in use in works produced by the First School of Fontainebleau such as armor, musical instruments, and fruit. In purportedly representing architectural elements drawn from antiquity, Du Cerceau introduces a high level of variation and innovation. Some of these details are whimsical, for example a small detail of a dog on the entablature of Plate 002. Each plate is organized to accommodate the greatest number of variations possible. For example, Plate 12 includes two friezes, one with a series of musical instruments and the other with instruments of war – suggesting that the designs could be adapted to suit each patron’s particular interests.

DR1974:0002:033:001-032
Description:
- This album contains preliminary and design development drawings - plans, sections and elevations - as well as rough cost estimates and specifications for several domestic commissions. The principal projects are both for M. Busche: an hôtel, possibly a double residence or apartment house (DR1974:0002:033:001 - DR1974:0002:033:017), and a housing project with apartment houses, row houses, and a porter's residence (DR1974:0002:033:018 - DR1974:0002:033:026). There are three alternative designs for the hôtel: two four-storey buildings, one with a courtyard and the other with a garden, and a five-storey building with a courtyard. Drawings for an apartment house for Louis-Jacques-François Boulnois include three elevations, a partial sketch plan and two plans (DR1974:0002:033:028 - DR1974:0002:022:032). These drawings are apparently for several projects, several buildings for a single project, or variant schemes for one project. All of the designs are rendered in an austere classical manner with minimal ornament.
DR1974:0002:033:001-032
Description:
- This album contains preliminary and design development drawings - plans, sections and elevations - as well as rough cost estimates and specifications for several domestic commissions. The principal projects are both for M. Busche: an hôtel, possibly a double residence or apartment house (DR1974:0002:033:001 - DR1974:0002:033:017), and a housing project with apartment houses, row houses, and a porter's residence (DR1974:0002:033:018 - DR1974:0002:033:026). There are three alternative designs for the hôtel: two four-storey buildings, one with a courtyard and the other with a garden, and a five-storey building with a courtyard. Drawings for an apartment house for Louis-Jacques-François Boulnois include three elevations, a partial sketch plan and two plans (DR1974:0002:033:028 - DR1974:0002:022:032). These drawings are apparently for several projects, several buildings for a single project, or variant schemes for one project. All of the designs are rendered in an austere classical manner with minimal ornament.
