Abstract

This study deals with an analogy between architecture and music by taking the unit of measurement in the Italian Renaissance method. The aim of this study is to consider how the unit of measurement correlates with various parts that compose architectural and musical works. Concerning the unit of measurement, 'modulus' in architecture is analogous to 'tactus' in music. Vignola and Diruta measure all parts of architectural and musical works with these units of measurement. Therefore, all measurements are indicated by numbers.
