| summary |
The idea of harmonic ratios in Renaissance architecture has been a highly debated subject in the realm of architectural theory and criticism. Palladio’s Villa Capra has been used extensively as an example to test these ideas. This paper describes four mathematical mappings of space to sound and color to bring forward these relationships and provides a brief account of their computer implementation with game engines technology. The modeling of these spaces along with their corresponding sounds and colors suggests a whole new range of interpretations of Palladio’s work as well as new and diverse performances of Palladian spaces. |
