The books were a way for Repton to describe his landscape design plans for their property. More than one hundred of the estimated four hundred Red Books created by Repton are still extant. The books acquired their name from their distinctive binding in red Morocco leather. The Morgan Library & Museum in New York City holds the Red Books for Ferney Hall in Shropshire, commissioned by Samuel Phipps in 1789, and Hatchlands Park in Surrey, commissioned by William Brightwell Sumner in 1800. The Red Books for Shrublands Hall in Suffolk from 1788 and Brondesbury Park in Middlesex in 1790, are in the collection of Dumbarton Oaks in Georgetown (Washington, D.C.). == References == - [[Professional Practice/Codes & Standards/National Building Code of India/Part 08 - Building Services/Section 3 - Air Conditioning]] - [[Professional Practice/Codes & Standards/National Building Code of India/Part 06 - Structural Design/Section 3B - Bamboo]] - [[Environmental Design/Design Psychology]] - [[Digital Architecture/ePractice/Computational Design]] - [[Professional Practice/Codes & Standards/National Building Code of India/Part 09 - Plumbing Services/Section 3 - Solid Waste Management]] - [[History and Theory/Temple Architecture/Stone Temples of India]] - [[Environmental Design/Water Conservation]] - [[Professional Practice/Codes & Standards/National Building Code of India/Part 06 - Structural Design/Section 8 - Glass and Glazing]] - [[Building Construction/Specifications and Detailing/Waterproofing Details]] - [[Building Construction/Construction & Materials/Building Material]]
