FRIENDS WITH AN OLD BOOK

Pages_I Quattro Libri - Archived

Posted on 11/17/202009/13/2021

For the Task “Pages” I’ve chosen the folios 61 to 66 of the book “I Quattro Libri Dell’ Architettura” written by Antonio Palladio because the staircase drawings are outstanding throughout the book due to the very modern approach on visualizing the design of different staircase iterations. The modern touch on the drawings which distinguishes them from the rest can be found in the way the much more graphic illustrations of the elevation and ground plan are drawn. The focus is sett on the general design of the stairs an less on proportion and construction. Also the lack of ornaments in the drawings is in the context of the rest of the book extraordinary.
