issues presented in the painting; art intellectuals and laymen alike adopted antithetical opinions on the conflict between skill and subject matter within paintings such as Millet’s The Gleaners, Caillebotte’s The Floor Scrapers and On the Bridge of Europe, and Renoir’s Dance at the Moulin de la Galette.

feels the impact of Austrian architect, Adolf Loos. Loos was a man of intense opinions and a reflecting portfolio. The blunt forms of his buildings were in tune with the tones of his writings and opinions on architecture.

He was also known for his theories and ideas such as the "Five Points of Architecture," the "Modulor," "The Open Hand," and the "Dom-ino House" which was a prototype open floor plan structure that…

I used permaculture principles when designing the pond throughout the process, as I was trying to design a pond that was sustainable, and multi purposeful (beyond that of aesthetic value.) When deciding the placement of the pond, I took into account the surrounding environment to find an area where it would have the least amount of impact on the microclimates.
