The Tower of Babylon

A project transcribing the Tower of Babylon from Text into a 3D Model
 
I looked at books detailed Islamic Architecture and pattern, direction and symbolism as primary sources of inspiration. As well as sources for transcribing the tower
 
The book chosen as a source to describe the Tower of Babylon is the Encyclopaedia of Religion and Ethics by James Hastings
Interpreted from text of the Encyclopaedia of Religion and Ethics by James Hastings into floor plans for the Tower and Courtyards. 
Influences for the aesthetic design of the buildings, taken from various books.
