Snow Work for the Lower 6

Happy New Year to you all!

 Make sure you have finished the work set during the holidays.

1. Look up the following buildings, print off an image and identify the architectural characteristics of each (some will be new and you may need to look them up) and comment on their composition (20 marks for each):
   1. The Houses of Parliament by Pugin; 19^th century Gothic Revival
   2. The Oxford Museum of Natural History; 19^th century Gothic Revival
   3. The Red House by William Morris; late 19^th century Arts and Crafts Movement

It will help you to do a little research on the Gothic Revival and Arts and Crafts Movement before you start.

Please do not rush this, do the research and take your time. Please e-mail completed work to me at: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
