DR1987:0529 R/V
Description:
- This unused sheet was probably prepared for a drawing for Wayfarers' Chapel, Palos Verdes, California. The verso of the sheet includes four discrete grids whose units each represent an equilateral parallelgram measuring 4'8" along the side and 8'0 31/32" in length. These measurements are described by Lloyd Wright in the architect's statement as the grid unit for Wayfarers' Chapel (DR1987:0869:011:009).
