While studying architecture history at the University of Minnesota,  I often wished that I had a simple visual tool to keep track of architectural elements between different cultures, styles, and dates.  This project takes a vector of Humayun's Tomb in Delhi, India, generally considered the first building of Mughal architecture, and breaks it down into the basic architectural elements that are related to Mughal Architecture.  These are the elements that one would not know if they hadn't studied Mughal Architecture.  When starting a class in a new field, many students don't know the terminology used in lectures.  This tool would prove very convenient for the lost students.

If there is a problem with the embedded project, this link will take you to the project.
