A propos du motif

In Lyon we find 3 gothic rose windows very flower like, with a common base layout: 6 large petals blooming around a centre.


The idea of this series of courses is to use basic elements of gothic geometry and to see how the same elements (trefoils, quatrefoils, six-foils) can be put together differently in a same structure and give varied results.


Also by offering a simplified and advanced version of each rose I hope to show how in gothic geometry things are rarely as simple and logical as they first seem.


Often elements are adjusted to give more flow to the curve, then working on several levels of grid overlapping and what looks like a regular trefoil is not necessarily one!

Advanced Versions

It is strongly recommended to have some geometry (with ruler and compass) experience before going for those versions.

We will use all the thickness levels, which are sometimes essential to get a final result close to the original window (drawing several levels of thickness requires a good precision with ruler and compass).

The construction be as close as possible to the original design.
