Wayfarers' Chapel, Palos Verdes, California: Elevation for a sign developed within an equilateral parallelogram

between 1953 and 1958

- This drawing for an hexagonal-shaped sign for Wayfarers' Chapel, Palos Verdes, California, is developed within the equilateral parallelogram grid unit of the chapel. The grid unit is inscribed on several orthographic drawings (DR1987:0530) and is described by Lloyd Wright in the architect's statement (DR1987:0869:011:009). This sign could either be for the entrance gate sign or the roadside sign shown on other drawings (eg. DR1987:0625).
