These drawings attempt to synthesize how a linear basilica form might stem from a square volume. The first drawing is intentionally church-like, but I find the two derivations below to be more interesting – the first with apses at either end, and accessed from the short axis; the second with the stair tower volumes repeated, more of a town-hall.
Hi Nick!
I like your ideas. I like your drawings….but where’s the drawing of er cuppolone?
Just teasing:)~
Be assuaged, Susan, many cupolas await! Thanks for taking a gander at ‘frame’.
