Great design, great art, and music all share some similar traits. Come learn what they are!

Thank you for creating these videos. Great timeless information you put out there for free.

[@BrentHull]

Glad you like them!

This video blew my mind, I never thought architecture went so deep.

[@BrentHull]

Nice. Thanks for watching. That is one of my favorites.

[@tc9148]

It’s always a great and fun morning when Brent releases a new video - makes my day great.

[@BrentHull]

Thanks Tom! Much appreciated.

Brent is a true renaissance man, something I aspire to be. By the way, the innate beauty of these proportions and patterns speaks to me of the ultimate Designer.

[@BrentHull]

Amen! Couldn't have said it better.

Love your enthusiasm.

Thank you.

Dang it. Now I need to go over my 2nd story addition plans and apply the golden ratio to everything. Thanks Brent 😂. But seriously. Thanks

[@BrentHull]

Cool. Let me know how it goes.

[@jacobecorder]

@@BrentHull I did. But the link got deleted. It actually helped. Changed a few dimensions and now we are Golden!

[@richd8537]

I am really enjoying your work. When I see a good old building it is comforting, and now I know why.

[@BrentHull]

Exactly. Me too! Thanks for watching.

Acoustically, the basic design of the Cathedral invites many challenges. Elliptical forms present concave interior surfaces which focus sound energy. This geometry can potentially create “hot spots” of concentrated sound energy and an uneven distribution of sound throughout the seating area. The concrete base reliquary wall and all of the louvers take on a concave curvilinear geometry in plan and section. To minimize the effect of the elliptical reliquary wall, its surface was faceted as much as possible and tapered approximately 10 degrees outward from the 12 ft. wide base to 9 ft. in width at its top. Openings were encouraged for side chapels, confessionals and for purely architectural design reasons. Acoustically this would reduce the amount of concrete in the base wall and minimize the effect of the focusing geometry. As partial height walls were introduced into the plan of the space, the acoustical recommendation was made to use an open style of staggered wood components in lieu of solid wood. Since the geometry was concave, the open lattice type construction would allow sound to be transmitted through the wall and not be focused into the congregational seating area. The building ceilings were designed to bounce back certain frequency’s 👍👍👍. Enjoyed

WOW! Great info. Thanks for sharing.

This is varry true I was looking at fresco paintings for my Rocco wall moldings to plant the interior and make my girlfriends apartment varry Rocco and baroque in the Italian style.

[@BrentHull]

Sounds like a plan. Good luck!

[@robertbamford8266]

It’s interesting to consider how to plan small renovations and repairs ($ constrained) to improve a bland design - what you describe as a functional assembly of parts.

[@BrentHull]

True, even on a limited budget there should be design considerations that unify a space and clarify it's purpose. Thanks for watching.

[@juiceman1887]

Can you start putting links to the books you’re suggesting ?

[@BrentHull]

Sorry, yes, I'll do my best. Its an "hours in the day" problem. Thanks for watching.

[@juiceman1887]

@@BrentHull completely understand, you already provide such great information, I’ve been very interested in these topics. Currently a young framer looking for more in the trade. Looking to read as much info I can and maybe become a builder one day. I screenshot all the books you suggest. Maybe one day you can just provide a big list of must have books on certain areas or just design in general. Thanks!

Hipplewhite. Thanks for watching.
