| Looking at it was like looking down into a ruined palace, a system of courtyards, chambers, and antechambers that instead of being built into the air had been carved into the earth. |
| Art also abounds in the metro: the Louvre-Rivoli platforms are like the antechambers of the world-famous museum, and artists and designers have turned other stations into wondrous spaces over the years. |
| Evidently they still had a whole labyrinth of corridors and antechambers to negotiate before they reached the forgotten chamber with its prized relic. |
| The main room was a rectangle with various antechambers and vestibules branching off down its length. |
| The four main rooms are identical, consisting of a rectangular plan, a reception area opposite the entrance door and two antechambers. |
| The three-story building is in the form of a quadrangle: the powerful square expanses are united with one another at their corners by wide three-storied galleries in which antechambers and living quarters were located. |
