Architecture
Report
Due: January 29
You are to prepare a short archaeological description
of one side of a building (on campus or elsewhere) that contains
significant elements from classical architecture.
Before you do this
report, you should make sure you have learned and studied the basic
terminology of classical architecture. You can do this here on the
class website.
Then you should select a standing building in your
vicinity that has significant elements of classical architecture.
You should then prepare a written description of
one side of that building. You should say what and where the building is and provide a written
description of the various architectural elements, from the top down,
using proper architectural terminology and paying special attention to the
classical elements. The
written description should be no more than 2 pages typed, although 1 page
is fine. This should be
accompanied by a drawing (elevation) of this side of the building,
approximately to scale, showing all the major features.
The assignment will be graded on accuracy, not on the beauty of the
drawing! The drawing should be scanned and sent with your
description, or (if necessary) it can be sent by fax (614-292-2282).
This assignment must be be submitted by 9:30AM, Monday, January 29 to the 
site.
