The Layout Of The Cinerama Dome

The Dome of the Rock is constructed with a wood structure encased with marble and stone mosaics. The octagonal plan has a large central space which is separated with two surrounding ambulatories. Supporting the tall cylindrical dome is four masonry piers and twelve Corinthian columns. With tie beams separating columns from their capitals, is twenty-four Corinthian columns and piers in an alternating pattern mimicking the central circle support. The interior of this space is embellished lavishly with veined marble, gilded glass, and coloured stone. On lower half of the arcades are fitted marble with intricate patterns as above is decorative with mosaics of trees, plants, fruits, jewels (such as breast plates and necklaces), chalices and crowns. The gold gilded wood dome is decorated with red and gold floral

Another building that was constructed for the fair was the Agricultural Building. “In keeping with the custom of its famous designers, the building was in classical style with the noteworthy feature of a sixty-four foot wide entrance flanked by mammoth Corinthian columns fifty feet high and five in diameter.” (Burg 128) In the middle of the building there was a large dome; the Romans were the first to create and use domes. Both Greek and Roman ideas were incorporated into this building.

Furthermore, even with the disadvantage of their lack of trees, the Egyptians found a way around it to instead piecing together small pieces of wood. It goes to show that while most other parts of the world were still in the Stone Age, the Egyptians were way ahead of their time creating furnitures, building palaces, and writing on papyrus. The Egyptians were great artists of their time and their furniture remains as one of the few things that is left and that can be appreciated and

The dome is made of gold and glass in order to contrast with the granite and make the building more stimulating. It nearly imitates the Hagia Sophia’s dome from Byzantine architecture from the outside. The Hagia Sophia was constructed from 532-537 CE and it still today remains as one of the most prominent works of art ever. It is one of the benchmark creations for all other churches and large architectural buildings in the world, and it revolutionized architecture. So, C.J. and R.J. Hall designed the dome very similar to that of the Hagia Sophia’s in order to show that it is a unique, important building in Providence. Although, the inside design of the dome of the Old West Bank differs from that of the Hagia Sophia. There are different geometries within the dome and pendentives. The pendentive is the triangular shaped space between numerous arches and the dome. In the Old West Bank, the same rectangular geometry is in the dome as well as the pendentive. In contrast, the Hagia Sophia’s dome and pendentive have different patterns and artwork. The structure of the two buildings is the same, but the design on the inside is changed in the Old West Bank. This is probably done in order to not create too many different visuals, since it is just a bank, and since it is a much smaller

Standing in front of the Athletic Center looking left to right, the many sharp angles that make up the exterior walls are more than eviden/t. The subtle, light tan color of the top-half of building touches the brick lower-half like the way water meets oil. The windows are painted on the top-half of the building to add some shimmer as the sun blazes through. The brick half is a razor-edged wave turning corners sharper than a Nascar driver during the Sprint Cup Series. Block, brick, and cast stone make up the exterior walls of the Center. The process includes “laying brick with mortar, painting and application of ceramic products” (Condeixa et al, 2015, table 2). The entryway is a curved tower held up by four brick pillars. The center of the entryway is adorned with a glass medallion; engraved in the glass is the Spartan logo like two lovers names engraved in their favorite tree as a beautiful reminder of what is and what used to be. Keeping guard at either side of the entrance are two Spartan soldiers, they welcome students and fellow Spartan lovers through the shadowy cave that leads to the six glass doors. However, they are always equipped with sword and shield in hand ready to take on anybody that dares to challenge or threaten their arena. Day and night they protect the Athletic Center, ensuring that its true purpose is never stolen: the love of sports and of

It was very neat and the rock walls were made out of limestone and granite. In some places, there was copper that was hammered into the walls that made into pretty designs. For safety reasons, we had to walk through a metal detector machine that checked us if we had anything on us that could harm anybody. The dome walk was very scary, but awesome. We went up 266 stairs to get to the top of the Capital. When we got to the top of the dome, it was windy, but you could see about 30 miles. Going down was the scariest part of the dome walk. It felt like you were going to fall straight down. On the way up and down, you could see this winch. They use the winch to lower down the chandelier to clean it and do maintenance on it if it had a like light burnt

This fire station build in 1993 has a form that resemblance Ringwood Library with a reverse curved roof acting in lieu of a dome to render the building monumental (Annex J). This time it was marked with a series of tubular skylights and vents which serves as a dome lanterns. Cream colour brick wall covers the façade of this building as a shell of a core of local red brick and concrete columns architecture internally which was a legacy of Melbourne’s everyday warehouse and factory architecture of the 1920s. The design had 2 constraints that Corrigan had to consider. Firstly the garage, reception area and dormitory had to be squeeze side by side within a tight space along Albert Street. Second the building was a replaced of an earlier fire station by Seabrook and Fildes whom was Melbourne’s leading early modernist and it was also near to two Modern cinemas.

The Pico Union Project building is located near the corner of Valencia and 12th streets. The enormous 15,000-square-foot building embodies a Greek revival architecture with elements such as pedimented gables, tall smooth white columns, and bold yet simple moldings. Formal stairs lead to the large wooden double doors. The vestibule is covered with mosaic tiled floor featuring the six pointed star of David. The dynamic sanctuary features splendid smashed-in stained glass windows, a stage, pews and a booming pipe organ with more than 700 pipes. Adjacent to the sanctuary is a kitchen and upstairs offices. The Jewish elements and architectural features of the building have been well maintained. The Stars of David appears in stained-glass windows and above the interior chandelier. A rose window appears in the former choir loft, which is now a seated balcony with original wooden seats. The barely detectable inscription reading “5669” in a cornerstone at the bottom of the building’s exterior. This signifies the year the building was built according to Hebrew calendar. Having previously served first as a Jewish congregation, then as a Welsh Presbyterian Church, the then as a multi-purpose Jewish space, the building radiates with years of multi-faith worship. The building’s beautiful, and inclusive style give the congregants of the Women’s Mosque of America a

The auditorium plays a dual function, connecting the first floor to the second floor galleries, and it also works as an event area. The seats are connected to the stairs creating bleachers in between, with an open staircase pushed to the left of the wall. In this way visitors are able to engage in the space by not only going up the staircase. This exposed area provides different types of events, from a presentation or performance, to screenings projecting into the front of the auditorium, to more intimate gatherings like groups and clubs. These more intimate spaces are due to the mechanized walls that act a as a curtain to section off the auditorium. In this manner the spaces of the auditorium adapt to the circumstances and the purpose of each different event, making the visitor feel like it’s in control of the

The Freedom Tower also known as “One World Trade Center” is the tallest skyscraper in the western hemisphere, and the fifth tallest skyscraper in our planet earth. The building structure consists of 104 stories can also be described as the North Tower of the original World Trade Center. The Building location is 285 Fulton Street, Manhattan New York, United States 10007, as depicted in the map below Figure 1.

From the observation tower the horizontal building’s three parallel bands can be seen that extend into the lush landscape. The architects’ concept was to immerse the museum in nature by creating a set of three bracketed pavilions under one roof surrounded by gardens. The roof can be seen as

The inner dome would support the outer brick dome, and nine sandstone rings would further support it, similar to a barrel (Brown). There is no denying that the Duomo is an ingenious
