Quadralectics Architecture - Marten Kuilman (2011). Pp. 616 - 617: An overview of the follies of America was given by Gwyn HEADLEY (1996). The Gazetteer of the book contains over two hundred (219) examples of architectural follies, although it seems that the definitions used by the author are fairly wide. For instance, the octagonal house was seen as a typical American extravaganza. The subject will get some extra attention here, because the concept is familiar in the sequence of tetradic ground plans (see p. 307, fig. 242). Over thousand octagonal constructions makes this type of buildings a characteristic feature for the new America. The octagonal style was propagated in a book by Orson Squire Fowler (1809 - 1887), a social reformer, who lived about hundred years ahead of his time. He reached fame in the (now) pseudo-science of phrenology (a kind of psychology based on the shape of the head), developed by the German physician Franz Joseph Gall around 1800. Many books, such as ‘Self Culture and Perfection of Character’ (1843) and ‘Hereditary Descent, its Laws and Facts applied to Human Improvement’ (1843) were written long before Darwin’s ‘Origin of Species’ (1859). Fowler’s ‘Sexual Science’ (1870) and ‘Creative and Sexual Science, or Manhood, Womanhood, and their Interrelations’ (1875) predated the work of Freud. Fowler also turned to architecture and published (in 1848) ‘A Home For All or The Gravel Wall and Octagonal Mode of Building New, Cheap, Convenient, Superior and Adapted to Rich and Poor’ (as called in the 1853 edition). His ideas were followed by Philip Armour in 1860 when he built an octagonal house at Irvington-on-Hudson, a few miles from Fishkill (fig. 503). The subsequent owner, Phillip Stiner, enlarged the building and added a multicolored dome with cupola. The Armour-Stiner House is restored by Joseph Pelli. Its ‘arrested carousel’ is a tribute to octagonal living and forms an early testimony of a ‘Fourth Quadrant’ spirit in America.
