Architecture: Inigo Jones and Robert Adam

Study note

In the 17th century, Inigo Jones drew on classical architecture to design the Queen's House at Greenwich and the Banqueting House in Whitehall. In the 18th century, the Scottish architect Robert Adam influenced architecture in the UK, Europe and America, and his ideas inspired buildings such as the Royal Crescent in Bath.

Memory tip: Inigo Jones (17th c., Banqueting House); Robert Adam (18th c., Scottish, Royal Crescent in Bath).
