“[It is] tempting to suggest, in [recollection], that our family was a sham. That our house was not a real home at all but the simulacrum of one, a museum. Yet we really were a family, and we really did live in those period rooms.” (Bechdel 17) These words of Alison Bechdel perfectly describe her family. Bechdel may not be widely recognized, however she did introduce the uniqueness of her book to the world as a tragicomic. As the writer and artist of this tragicomic, she only shows what she…

talk about des education and students working with machine) The A and C Movement had a particular interest in the working conditions of the people who produced artefacts. In his book The Arts and Craft Movement, Steven Adams writes “a piece of furniture true to the aims of the Arts and Crafts tradition had not only to be beautiful but also to be the…

locations. Builder Factory Stores are good, but a bit expensive. President Source is huge, but I've never been there. Probuild is huge and the whole country, but I've never been there either. These are best for building materials. For those in the furniture industry, our candy Louis & Company or rugby, and to a lesser extent, forest products supply or…

In the first prison which was Cummings the security system was my overall impression for me. At Wrightsville the furniture was my overall because the way the inmates built and working hard to produce the best furniture. In the Washington prison my overall was the when the security system where so organized. The way the officers talk to us and explained. Voner the most overall impression was when we was able to see the inmates that where on dead road and to see how the live before the get…

fees at the front doors of the Heritage room on the day of the event before entering. As predicted and planned, the Heritage room was the best place to host our event due to its features such as the furniture (TV, chairs, tables, speakers, etc) which enormously helped reduce our expenses since the furniture was technically “free” for us to use. Another benefit of hosting the event in this room is that it’s very well known to the students and staff of R.H. King Academy therefore, it was easy and…

I chose to create a floor plan of Melinda’s bedroom because she was the main character, and I felt that the setting was an important part of the book. Although the author of Speak, Laurie Halse Anderson, didn’t give readers a complete description of what Melinda’s bedroom looked like, I made some mental pictures of what I thought her bedroom and some of the decorations looked like. Melinda was described as a very creative girl who was very artistic. Her best grade on her report card was in art…

painting. Most lean casually to the side or rest their head on a hand. A prominent example of this is the student in the upper left whose head tilts to the left as it sits in his palm while he sits with his legs spread apart with his foot on the furniture. This impassive body language the students demonstrate is echoed throughout the entire background of the piece. It demonstrates a purely…

Skateboarding born in the 50s in California on the seaside coast such as Los Angeles or Hawaii. By their long walks tarred along beaches, the cities become the cradle of skateboarding. Indeed, many phenomena such as the expansion of these towns based on an orthogonal pattern (grid, streamlined mesh of the urban fabric, large squares in front of public buildings) have greatly encouraged this urban sport. We can precise that Los Angeles, postmodern city, has not city center which would deploy a…

the fireplace, a lamp, a table, and a bucket are all utilitarian. While it is important to note what is seen, it is equally important to note what is not seen. There seems to be nothing extraneous in this house, no decorations, no ornamental furniture, or other things associated with embellishment. The stylistic choice to hide or remove things which are found in houses like Mr. Kong’s says much about how these characters view the…

The idea that making something for oneself to use in their day to day life may seem too daunting for the average person. Most people would rather just go out and buy whatever it is they want/need and call it a day. This can save them a lot of time and money but may rob them of the joy of producing something of their own and may cause them to have an inferior product. So is it better to make something or is it more advantageous to save both time and money to buy something that is mass produced?…
