plans of an orangerie, a church and a military barrack

This selection of three illustrations shows that many different building types are portraied in this book. You can find plans of town and country houses, as well as plans of churches and barracks.
The buildings are showing a strong symmetry, especially the orangerie . The barrack is in contrast to the other two buildings because it has many floors and has no ornaments; it looks more minimalistic. It surprises me that they put that much effort into the design of a barrack, even though it’s a military building, which I associate with a sad and a cold place. All of these three buildings are probably on a big property.
Even though the orangerie has only one floor, it has a big starway.
In this book there is only little text which describes the plans a little bit more detailed.
