Designs from this era reflect the technical knowledge and aesthetic principles of their time. The preservation of Mylne's design records, including Design 23, provides evidence of his working methods and the commissions undertaken during his early career. Original drawings and documentation remain the primary historical sources for understanding the intentions and specifications of designs from this period.
