ARCHITECTURE SLIDE 6
Here we see a train station which uses a cone as a roof ornament to distinguish the building. Notice the use of arches to decorate a building that is really only a rectangular prism.

The dormer windows on the roof add interest and complement the cone well. Dormers in the front are oblique triangular pyramids. The dormers on the sides and front top are triangular prisms topped with obliquely truncated triangular prisms. We have a very simple "footprint" here. The top elevation will reveal a rectangle only.

Slides: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23 , 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45 , 46, 47, 48, 49, 50 , 51
