EXAMPLE Ashleigh E. Jubinski Arch 205 S2 November 12, 2017 Professor Bridge Baltimore Basilica Study HISTORY: The Baltimore Basilica was constructed from 1806 until 1821. It was known as the first great metropolitan cathedral, which was constructed after the adoption of the U.S Constitution. There were two people who aided in molding the cathedral into what it is today. The first person was John Carroll, who was the first bishop and the cousin of Charles Carroll, one of the people who signed The Declaration of Independence. The second person was Benjamin Henry Latrobe, the “Father of American Architecture” and the architect of the capitol (for Thomas Jefferson). The church leaders, “wanted to build a cathedral to celebrate their newly acquired right to publicly worship”. The Style of the cathedral was, “the popular Gothic Revival and adopted the neoclassical (romantic classicism) architecture of the new federal city in Washington”. Bishop Carroll, he “wanted an architectural symbol for the Catholic Church in this new republic that was uniquely considered ‘American’” (Americas First Cathedral). MASS/SIZE/SCALE: To put it in perspective, “When the Cathedral was first constructed, the only building that could compete with it in size, scale, and architectural sophistication was the United States Capitol” (Americas First Cathedral). The Basilica was massive for its time, but compared to many modern buildings, it is average, but still large for a religious structure. SHAPE: The Exteriors main facade is a “classical Greek portico with Ionic columns arranged in double hexastyle pattern, immediately behind which rise a pair of cylindrical towers” and its interior is, “…occupied by a massive dome at the crossing of the Latin cross plan, creating a centralizing effect which contrasts the exterior impression of a linear or oblong building” (Wikipedia). PROPORTION: It is comparative to the U.S Capitol RHYTHM/REPETITION: There is both rhythm and repetition throughout the Cathedral due to it being symmetrical. The Exterior has the columns and cupola, while the interior has the windows, arches, the pews, which create the repetition from within. The axis from the entrance to the altar along with the secondary axis established by the other walkways sets up a rhythm. This rhythm is used in part with the pews. LIGHT: The light enters from all around the Basilica, but it may be found in the dome, which has, “24 half-visible skylights” (Wikipedia). This light acts as a more natural source, which enables there to be less money and energy used towards lighting the Basilica. The natural light creates an emotion and experience compared to the more artificial source. ARTICULATION: The dome articulates various forms of geometry painted or carved within it. The dome also articulates its own sense of hierarchy even without the designs on it. STRUCTURE: The plan unites two distinct elements: a longitudinal axis and a domed space. The domed space allows for light to enter. MATERIAL: The exterior walls are said to be constructed of silver-gray gneiss quarried from the Ellicott City Granodiorite. COMPARISON: The Cathedral of Notre Dame is Gothic style architecture and compares to the Basilica due to its high ceilings and ability to let light in. Both have a central axis defined by the main walkway to the altar and they both focus on a more spatial form of architecture, which enables there to be a lot of people in and out. The Chartres Cathedral is also depicted the same way with high ceilings and flying buttresses.

GILMAN HALL

History
Gilman Hall was constructed from 1916 to 1917 to oblige an extended College of
Chemistry under the authority of Gilbert N. Lewis. Outlined by John Galen Howard, the building
gave research and training offices to workforce and understudies gaining practical experience in
physical, inorganic and atomic science. It was named for Daniel Coit Gilman, leader of the
University of California from 1872 to 1875.
Additionally, until the point when 1973 Gilman Hall was known as Chemistry Hall.
Constructed In 1913, Gilman Hall was one of the biggest structures in the mid-west, lodging
110,000 square feet of useable floor space. Like the English Office Building, Gilman has not been

tormented by any flames. Another intriguing actuality about Gilman Hall is that the floors are
worked with black-top; the black-top is substantially milder than cement and ISU did this realizing
most understudies spend at any rate a large portion of the day standing and strolling. There is space
for 2000-2500 understudy ...
