Gower House was the first chance Chambers had to design a metropolitan house for a member of the nobility. The combination of ingenious planning and restrained elegance made his reputation in London, and led directly to further commissions for Melbourne House in London and Dundas House in Edinburgh. The elevation and all five plans represent early stages in the design of Gower House, i.e. c.1765. See 'Sir William Chambers' catalogue edited by Michael Snodin for more detail.
