How a Teenager Designs a French Gothic Cathedral
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 жов 2024
- Designed by Wandrative
- I chose French Gothic to be the first style of the series.
At first glance, it might perhaps look like any other cathedral, but I will have to say that this is my own design. (really)
-This work (The designing and drawing) took about 12 hours (+-30min).
-This architectural style will have two videos; The Building-Designing part (This one), and the City-Drawing part to complete the picture.
(I'm sorry for splitting them into two halves)

-I chose different variations of Medieval Music to match the architectural style. The bells comes from a recording of cathedrals in Germany (ironically).
-Enjoy!

I'm an accounting student but I always have a thing for art and architechture. I think its the details.
Thats quite nice
Fucking awesome video dude! Im also in the process of designing a castle with gothic features. Im glad im not the only 19 year old doing it hahaha. I'd love to design with you, your work inspires me to see the end of my great project.
Hey thank you for the comment, and I hope I could see your works too. This video was from 7 years ago so im not quite your age now, haha. Sorry if my message was late my notifications are stupid.
I recognise the bells of Cologne Cathedral and Salzburg Cathedral!
+Ringer Jake Wow you do?! You are a Genius!!! I mixed them up but how were you able to catch both of them O_O? That is amazing!
+Wandrative I like listening to them. The biggest bell at Cologne Cathedral weighs 24 tonnes. A big one! The biggest bell at Salzburg Cathedral weighs about 14 tonnes. I don't know how I recognised them... Sometimes I surprise myself!
+Wandrative The first floor plan looks like the one of Soissons Cathedral.
+Ringer Jake Really? That's interesting. I believe you know quite a lot about architecture too - particularly Gothic :)
+Wandrative I LOVE Gothic architecture! Especially French Gothic! Amazing!
I love architecture. I love gothic architecture. And this drawing made me feel equally good and equally bad all because it was beyond AMAZING AS HELL
I am very and happy and thankful for your EXQUISITE complement! Please don't feel bad - I waste too much time often and spend days doing nothing (just to show you my bad side). I would love to befriend people like you but sadly I cant find any near me for some reason :(
Have a great new year!
+Is Gothic in particular your favorite style? Or is it something else?
This is so underrated, this needs a billion views and likes
I suppose I'll just have to accept that there are so many people in the world who are far more brilliant than me! I don't think it is anything for me to be ashamed of though!
+Mike Fuller I actually feel and felt the same way in so many other areas too ;) But if you feel that way it means that you are talented to recognise and be interested, and talented to have passion and envy. These elements means to me that you are brilliant in so many different aspects.
+Wandrative Ah! That's a lovely thing to say! Thank You, Wandrative!
Of course not. Just do your thing and enjoy it. You of course would have your strong point just like everybody else. So lets all delve into it mistakes and all. I join Wandrative (an excellent artist) in telling you that you are talented because of your keen passion. Try not to procrastinate because I do that and feel sorry afterwards. I waste too much time watching other artists (Wandrative included) and before I know it night falls and I have to sleep. All the best my friend and God bless.
I tell the same lovely thing to you too. There you are - you have got it double now.

I think these other comments would be justified if if you had done this about 1140 a.d.- before Abbot Suger.
By chance, do you have an Xbox One? I'm designing and building a gothic cathedral in a game that I'm playing in honor of Notre Dame.
جيد
Nice, hopefully we can see more of this architecture being built in the future!
I agree too!
i love drawing. Its just a hobby, i didnt study it or anything and i work in a completely different domain. I start drawing a gothic cathedral and im half way in, its coming alright, but i have to say its hard as hell. This video its great, but it would be nice to be slowed down a little bit, you miss out important details. Nice work though.
Thank you! I hope I could see yours too! I was afraid the general public would feel slightly bored if it was slower.
Notre dame church
I am so glad I stumbled across these! You are so talented! Are you still working on these!? I hope so as you are SO talented. I am almost embarrassed to ask if you have any plans to illustrate American architecture, as so many of our structures are so bland compared to the examples you just gave from around the world. We do have some pretty impressive types of architecture from here in the US though. We were big on "beaux-arts" at the turn of the last century which would be structures like Grand Central Terminal in New York City. Also very "american" would be art deco like whats found at the Chrysler building. You have some serious skill though buddy....so stick only with what challenges and inspires you, what allows you to demonstrate your EXTRAORDINARY talent!
+Julian Swierczek I Thank you so much for your extraordinary compliment Julian :D!! THANK YOU! This is incredibly flattering :DI am very honored to have someone interested in the things that I am doing. Yes, I am trying to do more of these drawings hopefully when I don't have too much school work to do, but I would love be completely dedicated. :D When it comes to American architecture, I am definitely interested in Art Deco along with some revivalist movements. These were actually the things that I was mostly interested in when I was eight years younger. :P I like it how in the 1920-30s, skyscrapers were designed into complex styles like these unlike many other modern skyscrapers that look like rectangles (Obviously some buildings look better and more complex but I think you'd know what I mean.) Unfortunately(?), I am currently living in Canada, so the surrounding architecture around me is much more 'bland' compared to the buildings that stand in the city that you live (presumably New York). :P I would love to visit New York one day and see all the buildings you've mentioned: ironically I've been to many places and cities in the 'old world', but never visited America. I can not control the length of this comment being so thankful for your interest :D ! I must finish my words though. What I am trying to do with the drawings is to go around the world in a Easterly direction. So I did: France >Netherland->Western India->Burma so the next one would be in Eastern Asia then I might move to Central America. It might take a long time but I really am considering Art Deco, but I might do it in the second lap around the globe :P I really thank you SO MUCH for your appreciation TRUELY.
+Wandrative I don't live in New York but rather close to Washington DC. I grew up in Chicago though so understand what you mean about the buildings. If you look up Chicago's "Tribune Tower" or "Wrigley Building" I think you'll find good examples of what you're talking about. But as you said, s'cool is more important so do that first! Haha
Also, where did you come up with the floorplan of the cathedral! It looks as though it could be genuine! Again, you've got serious talent buddy, thanks for sharing it!
Julian Swierczek Reading through my previous comment, I figured that it would have been hard to understand :P I'm sorry about that. In fact, I should start proofreading longer comments from this point on.
The Cathedral IS genuine!! Haha. But the façade looks quite similar to the Reims Cathedral... - I wanted to design a building specific to the culture and time period (So this makes it look similar to all the other French Cathedrals out there... Kinda). You have good eyes - I don't think most people can figure this out by just observing the floor plan!
Thanks
For some reason, I missed the part you said about wanting to move "in an eastern direction." Sounds great buddy, like I said, you've got the talent so anything you do will be fascinating to see.
For some reason, I've always loved architecture, but also floorplans. churches, museums, houses...all of them. So it seemed to me that you created the cathedral yourself which is so amazingly detailed and in depth of you. Not just drawing a fancy church, but DESIGNING it from the ground up. I don't know why this is so interesting to me, but again, keep it up!
If you're in Canada, I don't want to ask where, but obviously wherever it is, the US isn't too far away! ;) Everyone needs to see New York, Washington and Chicago in their lifetime but Boston is cool too....there's a bunch of neat stuff to see. If you ever have questions, don't hesitate! Thanks again for sharing your talent!
Also, your message was very understandable/ easy to read, so no worries!
Julian Swierczek (
Man ripped off Notre-Dame de Reims' façade, more like a concretion of French Gothic buildings than an original design.
Nice drawing nonetheless.
Well, I was 16-17, so not really a man. The side structure is actually different from any other, but I should have focused it more on the side more then the façade.
This looks like Reims sooo bad :D
Yeah this first video of mine derives alot from Reims, unfortunately I decided to focus this drawing on the frontal facade but the side structure is very different. The two towers are very alike Reims but their parameters are different. Ive subscribed to you.
could I commission you to do a tattoo design?
Thanks for the suggestion! I would always love it if anyone blesses me with any commissions :)
This guy isnt an architect. Hes actual fucking architecture in a video.
Gosh... your comment is a piece of art! :D
@@Wandrative thankssssss
Beautiful! It looks like an amalgam of Reims, Amiens, and Paris. I see design elements of all three. 😊
Beautiful, fantastic...,!
YEAH! It looks similar to Notre Dame! But, this is so nice!
Wish i could go inside
You think the same as I
Thanks for the great inspiration :)
Thank you for feeling for that way!
That would be nice! But I'm not sure if any company wants to build nice buildings these days.
The Drawing is really amazing. But why design? He doesn t made something new, thats a classical cathedral (Notre Dame)🤷🏻♂️
Other then the frontal façade, the Cathedral is designed according to the traditonal French Gothic style. But it does not look anything like the Notre Dame (de Paris). Rather, it looks very similar to the Reims Cathedral. (although you might have been implying that one).
I love the south transept. I've always wished that the apsidal transept would have caught on and remained in use into the High and Late Gothic periods. It adds something deeply powerful to the Gothic churches where it was used, Soissons especially. Bravo Wandrative.
Being a loyal enthusiast of English Gothic, though, I must add that there is something to be said for terminating the transepts and choir in a flat wall. I'm glad English architecture took that route (though I'm also paradoxically glad that French architecture kept the apsidal chevet). For justification stand in the choirs of Wells, Lincoln, and Bristol, and research the east fronts of Howden Minster (where the choir is now in ruins) and Old St Paul's (which of course no longer exists).
That is a nice bit of information I newly learned about! I didn't know that the English terminated it in a flat wall.
I WANNA CRY, IT'S SO NICE :((((
thank you I wanna cry too
Wow I love the way you draw! However, I think the front of the cathedral looks too massive with the two big towers.
+77drby Thanks :) I guess it does! But I think it also looks big because the viewpoint is closer to the front of the cathedral? ;)
Notre Dame de Paris has two big towers and that is no doubt my favorite cathedral
ela çox gözəl
this was a thriller!
great work! love it :)
+Tazeen Raza Hi!! I couldn't reply to you for a while to show my thanks - somehow the reply button did not show up on your comment :( But now it works, and I thank you very much!
Good morning, i saw yours draw, in particular that about your fancy cathédral, congratulaations!!!!
Stunning!!!!
Are you used as musical background the Cologne cathedral's peal?
I think that sound could be the Sankt Pertersglocke and other bells about cologne cthedral.
Bonjour, j'avais vu vos dessins, en particulièr en concernant la votre cathédrale fictive.
Félicitations.
Avez-vous utilisé la sonnerie partiale des cloches de la cathédrale de Cologne?
Je crois d'avoi reconnu le Bourdon Saint Pierre ou Sankt Peterglocke ainsi autres cloches de cette cathédrale allemande.
Hello! Im sorry to get back at you after such a long time!
Yes! Some of the bells I have used is from the Cologne cathedral. You have good ears!
@@Wandrative congratulation for your draws!
I love the details! Im an Architecture student, myself. This is amazing.
Thank You! I'm so sorry to just find this comment now.
Amazing man ! 👍
bravo !! magnifique dessin !!
how can the draft or drawing that you drew in
the beginning relate to the product you showed in the end
of this video?
I can't see a connection between them.
Please help me because a adore this kind of
architectural style :-). :-) :-)
+Amadeus Akreveus Hello :)It's a floorplan! The blackened parts are the pillars and walls, while the thin lines represent windows, doors, and all the arches that would be present on the celling. The left side is the façade and the curly things on the right represent the five chapels. I'm not sure if this helps so please ask me more if it doesn't. :)
amazing
I really have to thank you! :)
I wish i could create works of art like this
That is such a nice thing to say!
You are so talented!!!
How nice :) Thanks!
Well done.
Thank you
Can I have that lol
Norse Faction XD Thank You I just HAVE to love your comment :) :) :)
@@Wandrative you... you... you didn't even answer his question...
Wowww 🙏🏼 this ist beautiful
Thank you Karina! You give me happiness :)
lol
We share the same passion.
Its is very nice to see that. What do you usually like to create?
@@Wandrative I'm currently working on a drawing of the South facade of the Notre Dame in Paris. I do this for orientation, because I can make anything that I can draw. In a few days I leave the Netherlands to participate in the rebuilding of the Notre Dame as a carpenter/jack of all trades.
Ominous Omg! I envy you!!
You get to participate on the Notre Dame reconstruction? You must be an excellent carpenter.
Ominous I really have to live in the old world...
Ominous I am guessing that the work will concentrate on the roof complex since its carpentry?
Please tell me more
외국인인척ㄴㄴ
Amazing work! Looks like the Reims Cathedral mixed with Strasbourg Cathedral
Hi Davi! You are right! I did contrive most of the architectural froms of the facade from the Reims. The Strasbourg Cathedral I didnt think of, but after your reference I see where you are coming from.
Brilliant! You are a true artist!
+Paulo Henrique Rosa Hello. I couldn't reply to this comment and show my thanks for a while because for some reason this comment lockes the reply button :( I thank you so much for the support! :)
This is awesome!
Masterclass work mate!
Thank you Sirius!!! :D
Sooo nice to read your compliment Ahaha :)
When you say design do you mean create from scratch or just make your own art of what already exists as this looks a lot like Notre Dame in France?
Other then the frontal façade, the Cathedral is designed according to the traditonal French Gothic style. But it does not look anything like the Notre Dame (de Paris). Rather, it looks very similar to the Reims Cathedral. (although you might have been implying that one)
Amazing!!!
Thank you!
I would say you have copied Notre Dam de Rheims!
The facade of the two towers looks very similar to the Rheims cathedral, yes. Good eye!
However, the middle section is quite different from the Rheims (vastly different within the boundaries of French High Gothic design), and the rest of the cathedral has a completely different layout and design. (the sides, hind, and central tower)
I should have drawn it sideways to make these claims more odvious, so its my fault.
wish I could do this.
Aww Aaron
Is this the Notre Dame fire reference?
Terrible tragedy really. But my drawing is more stylistically oriented to the Reims Cathedral.
Any good at Tartarian architecture dude
What would that be?
why do these magnificent Buildings Always have to involve religion... cant they just be used for .. administrative functions or something? ;/
Back then, big art projects were funded by the church and religion, so it makes sense that these impressive builds relate to religion in some way or another.
ok, but religion itself makes no sense
+rajarr70 Well, there are Palaces, City Halls, and many other great government buildings. But I guess religious buildings are always the best. It is usually the best because you are dedicating it to divinity - so it must be close to perfection. And I don't think so much rootless hatred toward religion is necessary for you or anyone else.
rajarr70 Well, although I identify myself as secular, I believe religion had a lot of great impact on mankind. It brought people together, and established rules and regulations. It made civilizations behave, and achieve goals in life, and to expand.
I think that if we didn't have religion, we probably would be savage.
@@rajarr70 your point?
