What buildings have six-way vaulted crossings. Cathedrals commonly have four-way vaulted crossings, typically surmounted by a cupola. I want to find structures where six barrel (or similar) vaults intersect in a common point. High security prisons often are built with a starlike floor plan, but they have conventional ceilings and roofs. Please supply examples only with vaulted (e.g. barrel, romanesque, gothic) ceilings. |

Searched for hexagonal dome+ read through some promising articles Try: Italian Baroque Sant Ivo della Sapienza- dome Francesco Borromini Rome, Italy 1642-1650 Cappella della Santa Sindone aka Chapel of the Holy Shroud- dome Guarino Guarini Turin, Italy 1667-1694 There was less information for these two: Concepción Coepopan Chapel, Mexico Shirvanshah Palace I would also suggest looking east- especially at mosques (Sinan is a good architect to look at) as well as Indian architecture. Would you be interested in structures with muqarnas? There are many six and twelve division examples in various mosques. |
