[Pairing Down]

Meditation/celebration
Throughout the whole week we have been working on window projects. These project have had to show dualities in which the main things were Meditation and Celebration. The project we are currently working on now consist of redesigning an interior space for 2 rooms. This two rooms were put together and the wall that connected them was taken out. In this space we are to show an area of meditation as well as an area of celebration. When thinking of these two works two things come to mind. Meditation creates an image in my mind of darkness, relaxation, and comfort; and Celebration being an area full of color and spirit.

Light/Shadow
Talking further about our studio project and building on from the light habitat we have to keep in mind where light and shadow hit. This is something that we are to always keep in mind when working on projects, whether it is on a model or in a drawing. In a drawing it is important to look where the light is hitting the object so that then you can recreate the shadow on paper. Shadows always give a drawing a more realistic look. When making a model it is important to keep in mind where the light hits that way whatever you are planning on designing in the interior wont affect the placement of it.

Transpose/Juxtapose

Literal/Abstract
When designing, it is always important to be abstract. This week we revisited the work of Paula Carr. He we noticed how she illustrated different areas that went from something original that you might be used to seeing to something completely different that comes from freethinking. Something that is abstract is really rare to see so this creates an even bigger impact on the people who see it.
