[PDF] Preventive Conservation for Historic House Museums (American Association for State and Local History) by Jane Merritt; Julie A. Reilly in Arts-Photography

Description

It must be appreciated that no building surface is perfectly flat and that the best that can be expected is the appearance of flatness. Unfortunately; this appearance can easily be destroyed by the effect of glancing light; whether natural or artificial. Illumination and Decoration of Flat Surfaces shows the effect of different light sources on a variety of lining materials and paints so that best results can be achieved.Different types of building surfaces are investigated; including set plaster; fibrous plaster; hardboard and gypsum board with gloss and semi-gloss paint applied. This full-colour edition also discusses new building materials such as cement sheet; polystyrene and various composite panels; as well as new building practices; low embodied energy materials and higher energy efficiency of buildings.Illumination and Decoration of Flat Surfaces is a must-have for people involved in the building industry; both commercial and residential.
