| Description: |
Text by Augusto Romano Burelli, Paola Gennaro. |
| Synopsis: |
The 15th-century architect Sinan was a master mosque builder who employedperfect proportions to create astonishing lightness in architecture - especially in hisgravity-defying cupolas. Sinan is renowned for having borrowed Roman and Byzantine techniques in order to create something new in mosque design-centralised organisms of absolute space, unhindered by pillars or columns. This beautifully illustrated volume, which features stunning reconstructed architectural renderings and diagrams, is the first to fully analyse Sinan's method-presumably derived from early projection techniques. |
