Burnham Baroque is an architectural style developed by American architect Daniel Burnham at the end of the 19th and start of the 20th century. It relies heavily on a stripped Classicism with Baroque and Beaux-Arts inflections. It was popular primarily during the first three decades of the 20th century, particularly among designers of railroad stations.

Genesis and character of the style

The term was coined in 1956 by architectural historian Carroll L.V. MeeksШаблон:Sfn in his book The Railroad Station: An Architectural History.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Efn Meeks credits Burham's staff architect, Charles B. Atwood, with the genesis of the design. Consulting with railroad engineer J.F. Wallace, who ensured that the layout and tracks conformed to accepted industrial practice, Atwood designed the temporary railroad station which served the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago, Illinois. Atwood's use of the triumphal arch and colonnade in this structure was widely praised, and Meeks says Burnham strongly embraced the new style after the exposition.Шаблон:Sfn Burnham Baroque became Daniel Burnham's favored architectural idiom.Шаблон:Sfn

But where the City Beautiful movement "slathers" ornamentation over a building, Burnham Baroque uses ornament to accentuate structure.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Efn
