Cooper Union Architecture Archive : Student Project : Analysis: Chartres Cathedral [ARCH_131_AgnetaNicholas

Abstract

My analysis proposal was to investigate the mystery of the short bay at the first bay in the nave, as a function of the geometry of the labyrinth set in stone at the center of the nave, and its relationship to the rose window.
