Public space

designated spaces that are limited to people of a certain type or standard. Certain geographical spaces only host certain types of events and ideas, however, space has become smaller in physical culture due to the interdependence and interconnectivity (Friedman 2016). Physical space, is a different entity. The areas where athletes perform are very specialized to provide ideal conditions for their respective sport. At first women were not even allowed in these specialized physical spaces. The…

subjective, so in any other realm, art and science are often in opposition, however Architecture fuses the two together to form “productive space with the tangible realities of gravity, material properties, and assembly sequences” (Schwartz 2016, 24) and tectonics establishes methods for this to be possible. Light is invited inside a structure to give it a sense of space, life, emotion, and a connection to the outside, and gives the appearance of light, floating structures. Fig.1 shows a…

in-between, and every kind of definition has an in-between space. Especially if the definitions are two opposites, then the in-between space is more rich”. Indeed, this kind of “in-between space” doesn’t only exist between nature and architecture or between inside and outside, but also, it exists as a narrative space for the Dominican-American writer Julia Alvarez. In this paper, I would like to elaborate on the term, the “in-between space”, which was brought up by Kelli Lyon Johnson in her…

woman kept her eyes trained on her cell-phone, scrolling through an endless feed of videos and tweeted thoughts. The man in the business suit held his body straight at the front of the small space, eyes trained on the door, waiting impatiently. The second woman, who had situated herself at the back of the space, leaned against the wall, trying to make herself as small as possible. She kept her eyes on the ground and her arms pinned at her sides. The teen stood right in front of the buttons,…

exterior • How this transition of two spaces is achieved by the human senses? (Visual marking of spaces – inside/outside) • How the building does merges with the surrounding environment? What textures are created from this? (Example: Todaiji Temple – exterior penetrating into the interior, Horiuchi House – Life pass through the outside and vice versa) CHAPTER 3 : Embracing aesthetics of the space • How materiality can transform positively or negatively a space? • How building materials blend…

circumstances in the public view. As our culture became more tolerant, LGBT communities began to come out, and "gay lesbian bars'” emerged and were considered 'safe spaces' whereby those of the same gender could dance, kiss, and engage flirtatious play without fear of retribution. Thus the term "safe space" was coined. However, like all loose change, the coined term has fallen into a new meaning. We witness now, the rise of "intellectual safe space". Intellectual safe spaces burden any free…

be comfortable while each particular space is occupied. Intimate space extends 18 inches in every direction, personal space extends from 1 ½ to 4 feet away and social space extends from 4 to 12 feet. Beyond 12 feet is public space, which is open to all. The smallest zone extends 18 inches from the body in every direction and is referred to as the intimate space. This space is reserved for family, close friends and pets. Anyone else entering this intimate space causes discomfort. As a…

“Project Classroom Makeover”, “the imagination is engaged in making connections in all of those forms , as it is in anything we experienced” (Davidson 55). Imagination plays a key role in the human’s ability to associate with other people’s constructed spaces, whether it is through watching, listening or even reading it; it allows people to connect with seemingly unrelatable content. They can only do so, however, by latching onto relevant components as a base where their own imaginations can…

“Ain’t I a Woman?” by Sojourner Truth used rhetorical strategies very effectively. Truth used rhetorical strategies effectively because her tone, text structure, figurative language, and the rhetorical devices she used let the audience know what she was feeling and why she was fighting for was she was fighting for. Truth used many rhetorical strategies in her speech but pathos, logos, ethos, allusion, juxtaposition, and pinpointing really made her argument valid and strong. Sojourner Truth’s…

been in a more public setting. He somewhat shows some awareness that his actions were wrong as he does mention that he would not have placed the pasta back in its dispenser had he been in a more formal setting, such as an actual buffet. Mr. Tawney is aware that there are social norms to abide by. While social norms may not always make the most sense, I think that it is reasonable to abide by these “unspoken rules,” that the public has seemed to unanimously agree on abiding by, in public. At…
