マッキム・ミード&ホワイトの建築作品における幾何学構成 : モーガン・ライブラリー平面の分析および正方形に基づく構成の分類

抄録

The objects of this study are to clarify the morphological character of Mckim, Mead & White's works through the analysis on the plan of Morgan Library in New York, and then to classify their geometrical compositions based on squares. Through this study, it is made clear that with regard to Morgan Library, the configuration of the plan is designed based on composition of square and grid, and that their geometrical compositions can be classified into four types: inclusion-type, addition-type, ovelap-type, and conjuction-type. Characteristics of each type are also discussed.
