James Nash is best known as the creator of the great Regency terraces of houses around the edges of Regent's Park in London. Like many of the great house builders featured by Tumbla, Nash's influence and built works extend far beyond house building. His works include the layout and surrounding buildings of Trafalgar Square, the main building of Buckingham Palace ( but not its later classical facade) along with garden layouts for Regent's And St James Park.
However, for us it is his creation of the white stucco villa, as seen around Regent's Park and Carlton Teracemin London that marks his influence.
