Gravetye Manor House & Gardens

Below are images from our June 30, 2010 visit to Gravetye Manor.  Karen and I had a nice lunch and enjoyed the house and gardens.  Though nice, the gardens were not as well maintained as the nearby gardens of Town Place we visited earlier that morning.

  • The Elizabethan manor house dates to 1598.
  • Once owned by William Robinson, the celebrated Arts & Crafts horticulturalist and gardener.
  • Is currently a hotel operated by Relais & Châteaux.

The Dallas Architectural Club, 1920

I stumbled upon a scanned copy of the Yearbook of the Dallas Architectural Club (1920), which was a catalog of their first exhibition February 11-18, 1922.  I wanted to share the image above by local Dallas architect Ralph Bryan.  I thought this was an inspirational rendering worth posting.

 

The image above is a rendering by noted local Dallas architect Anton Korn.
