Subject(s): Summary: "The hayday of architecture will have arrived when architecture is a theme of common talk. This,however, it can never become until it be brought into relation with those intimate personal arts which in some degree everybody practices and understands. One such art generally goes by he name of manner. How, then, can we link manners to architecture? Obviously this spiritual marriage will be accomplished if the public exercises surveillance over architecture by insisting that the forms of the buildings shall pay deference to the profound aesthetic standards which the. public of itself acknowledges to bear sway in the realm of manners." - From the Preface
