项目要求：分析庭院的转角语言
task: to study the corners of the two courtyards

分析：
圣母平安堂与乌尔比诺公爵宫的庭院中，转角的处理提出两种不同的空间逻辑。在圣母平安堂的庭院中，壁柱在转角处相遇既而穿过，仅留一小笔壁柱角作为暗示；如此可视作中庭立面在转角处的继续延伸。在乌尔比诺公爵宫的庭院中，相交汇的庭院立面各由完整的壁柱收尾；这暗示了立面在转角点的终止。

analysis:
In the courtyard of Santa Maria della Pace, arches from two sides meet with each other without the intersection of pilasters. This creates a gesture of of the grids going beyond the corner. In Palazzo Ducale of Urbino, the corner piers are joined by an additional pair of pilasters, defining the turn of the corner. This suggests the reading of two facade “planes” coming to a point of termination.
