Sage Chapel at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, is the campus's central place of worship, and this design drawing records the building as it was conceived before construction. Cornell's founders, Henry Williams Sage and Ezra Cornell, gave the university a distinctive mix of ideals, and the chapel was built to serve the whole campus regardless of denomination. Drawings like this one show how the architects planned the Gothic Revival forms, the spacing of windows, and the placement of the stained glass that gives the interior its character. Look closely at the proportions and the decorative detailing, which reveal the design choices made long before the stone went up.
