Architectural Orders - Capitals

Proportions, modules and details of classical architecture

Collection of dwg drawings dedicated to classical architectural orders and capitals, including proportional schemes, complete columns, entablatures and carefully drawn construction details.
The files represent the fundamental orders of classical architecture – Doric, Ionic, Corinthian, Tuscan, and Composite – analyzed in their constituent elements and the dimensional relationships that regulate their form and proportions.

Born in theAncient Greece and encoded in Roman timesFor centuries, architectural orders have represented a truly universal language of construction, based on geometric rules, modules, and harmonious ratios. From Greek temple architecture to the treatises of Vitruvius, to Renaissance and Neoclassical reinterpretations, these systems have profoundly influenced the history of Western architecture.

The collection offers drawings useful for both theoretical study and practical application: detailed capitals, columns with smooth or fluted shafts, bases, cornices, and entablatures are represented with technical clarity, making the material suitable for design, architectural restoration, and teaching.
A tool designed for students, professionals, and enthusiasts who wish to understand and use classical language through technical drawing.
