EDITORS COMMENTS
This photographic print showcases a century of housing evolution in Manchester, England, featuring four distinct examples of domestic buildings that represent various stages of architectural development from 1820 to 1922. The earliest representation is a Georgian terrace house from 1820, characterized by its elegant facade, symmetrical design, and tall, narrow windows. This type of housing was popular during the Georgian era and is often associated with Manchester's historic city center. Moving forward to 1845, we see a Victorian terraced house with larger windows and more ornate detailing. The Victorian era brought about significant changes in housing design, with a focus on creating more open and spacious homes. Advancing further, a house from 1870 is depicted. This terrace house displays a mix of Victorian and Edwardian influences, with bay windows and red brick facades becoming increasingly common. Lastly, a modern semi-detached house from 1922 is featured. This home represents a departure from the cramped terraced houses of the past, with its open layout and separate living areas. The use of modern materials, such as brick and stucco, also became popular during this time. This photographic print offers a unique glimpse into Manchester's rich housing history, highlighting the significant changes that have taken place over the past two centuries. From the cramped terraced houses of the 19th century to the more open and spacious homes of the 20th century, this collection of buildings tells the story of Manchester's architectural evolution.
