This is a Baroque villa based on Villa Amerika, in Prague (1720). I'm afraid that not all of the ornamentation comes through in the LEGO version.

This is a futuristic capital building I created. (URL) utilizes a number of different classical architectural styles, and some art-deco, but the final look is decidedly futuristic. The central pillar is made from vertically mounted, curved, Paradisa (...) (24 years ago, 23-Nov-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) thanks, that's pretty useful. I friend told me that the transepts should be mote towards the tower, and the door on the southern side. He is correct about the door(s), but about the transepts position . I guess it will stay that way. (...) (...) (24 years ago, 23-Nov-00, to lugnet.build.arch)

Only larger buildings tend to exhibit the cross-like geometry. I like how this one has the mini-transept and (...) (24 years ago, 23-Nov-00, to lugnet.build.arch)

Actually, I've used www.greatbuildings.com, but this is more of a reference rather than a tutorial. Also, they are annoyingly lacking pictures on about 3/4 of their building descriptions! As far as the Bauhaus style, I probably should have been more (...) (24 years ago, 23-Nov-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.build.arch, lugnet.town)

Churches often have some sort of underground rooms. Cathedrals generally have crypts for notable dead people underneath them, or for relics or whatever. Crypts for notable live people are kept elsewhere. Campaniles are generally part of the Italian (...) (24 years ago, 22-Nov-00, to lugnet.build.arch)
