Original designs in architecture is a 1783 London folio of engraved architectural plans by William Thomas, printed for the author and aimed at architects and patrons of Georgian building. Its plates show elevations, floor plans and a cross-section of country houses and a garden gate in a restrained neoclassical manner, with clean line drawings a designer could borrow for classical facade proportions, pediments and symmetrical plan layouts.
