Control of the architectural space in the ruins of Saint Mary of Cazorla church
Journal Title: UcoArte. Revista de Teoría e Historia del Arte - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
For the design of buildings, and also for build they later, the architects of the Renaissance used workflows and control systems based on the knowledge of geometry and mathematics. Their targets were focused on reach technical and formal outputs that joint the architecture to proportions and harmonies according with the general feeling of men in those new times. Architecture is not the result of chance or decisions taken lightly, but rather on the contrary each part is related to the others and to the whole of the building, using for this technical concepts and, metrical systems and spatial and formal controls. All together encode the classical modes used in architectural creation. The review of the architectural treaties and its “assembly instructions” make possible to obtain conclusions we can repeat systematically in several building of Renaissance with same typology. Looking at this we can therefore verify certain aspects that for our study case in Cazorla, complete the nonexistent data that would culminate in completing the unfinished space of this building.
