The Old Sacristy, located in the Basilica of San Lorenzo in Florence, Italy, is a seminal architectural work by Filippo Brunelleschi, completed in the 1420s. This structure is considered one of the earliest examples of Renaissance architecture and marks a departure from the Gothic style prevalent during that period. The Old Sacristy was commissioned by the Medici family, one of the most influential patrons of the arts in Renaissance Florence.

Brunelleschi's design of the Old Sacristy is noted for its geometric harmony and the use of proportion, features that were inspired by the classical architecture of ancient Rome. The sacristy is essentially a cube topped by a hemispherical dome, with a layout that incorporates a short transept and apsidal chapels. The use of pietra serena, a gray Tuscan sandstone, for the architectural details against the white walls creates a striking contrast that emphasizes the mathematical precision of the design.

The Old Sacristy not only served a religious function but also acted as a mausoleum for prominent members of the Medici family. The interior is adorned with sculptural works by Donatello, including a series of medallions depicting the Evangelists and a lunette over the entrance depicting St. Lawrence, reflecting the integration of architecture and sculpture characteristic of the Renaissance. The Old Sacristy stands as a testament to Brunelleschi's innovative approach to space, form, and perspective, setting the stage for the development of Renaissance architecture.
