[SOLVED] Albertis San Andrea and Labroustes Bibliotheque Ste. Genevieve
Consider a comparison of: Albertis San Andrea in Mantua and Labroustes Bibliotheque Ste. Genevieve in Paris. You must answer the following questions in minimum of 1200 words: 1) How is each facade preparing (or not) the approaching user for the interior procession through the building? Describe the procession through the building and explain how there are cues as to its nature on the façade and in the building massing and organization. 2) How is a common element (the barrel vault) either used, or implied, in each building and what are the structural implication of this? 3) Each architect thought that his studies into ancient Greek or Roman buildings helped establish the form of the new building (i.e. for San Andrea it was Albertis erroneous idea about the ideal Roman Temple, for the Bibliotheque it was Labroustes study of the so-called Basilica at Paestum). What features may have resulted from these studies, respectively? (Hint: there are at least two per building). PLEASE USE: “Buildings Across Time: An Introduction to World Architecture” as a source, and up to any 3 other valid internet sources.
