The Architecture of Craig Hamilton at Old Parkland, Dallas

These three volumes describe and illustrate the trilogy of projects that Craig Hamilton has designed at Old Parkland, Dallas, an office campus developed by Crow Holdings. The architecture and sculpture, together with the spaces between buildings, aim to create a working environment inspired by the humanist ideas of the Renaissance. Hamilton’s work there comprises an office building and a belltower or Campanile on the existing West Campus, together with the entirely new East Campus which occupies a complete city block and comprises of extensive new office accommodation, an orangery restaurant and a small theatre. All three projects are rich in architectural and sculptural symbolism. Each of the three volumes in this series is devoted to one of these projects. The extra-large format allows the architecture to be studied in detail, along with the sculptures of Professor Alexander Stoddart, Sculptor in Ordinary to HM The King in Scotland, who worked collaboratively with Hamilton throughout and whose contribution was central to the project as a whole. 

Hamilton’s hand drawings provide the best means of understanding the detail and iconography of these works, and a large number are illustrated in the three volumes. Specifically commissioned photographs by Paul Highnam show the finished buildings in their context. The text by Professor Clive Aslet introduces Hamilton and analyses the architectural form and syntax in detail. Hamilton’s understanding and deep respect for both the wider western and American classical traditions of architecture have been a source of inspiration for the work that has been undertaken at Old Parkland.
