I saw that in the Tokyo railway station, many of the ticket sellers actually use abacuses. |
In turn, the capitals are linked to the overlying dosserets by means of abacuses in a typically Norman form. |
The depth of the space and its lack of natural light were corrected by adding abacuses and unusual walls of light, which have become the project's signature. |
But Chinatown-shopkeeper abacuses line the walls, brass lion's-head door knockers snarl from the backs of chairs, and a kaleidoscope of petaled lampshades has turned half the ceiling into a lotus pond. |
The orchestra rattle abacuses for the sound of pattering tiles, but the dancers just prowl around tables. |
The abacuses all have different widths, obviously in order to connect the various heights of the columns, in order to put all the surfaces for the pointed arches on the same level. |
