This is a diagram of some of the buildings on UNCG's campus and how they  give power and order to each other  and the space, through their orientation . The Curry building and the Music Building are at the north and south,and are "kinda" on axis with each other.  With the help of other buildings they help frame an area and in turn give importance to that area. The Dining hall also seens to piont to he residence halls giving them importance or power.  The small the enclosed area (residence halls) next to the bigger area creates order and scale.

This is the west entrance of the  Elliot University Center. The room is circular as you can see by the curve in the walls as they meet the ceiling.  This circular room just exudes power. The windows help bring alot of light in while making the ceilings feel a little higher. This brings an element of scale into the equation.

The Collonade outside of Ferguson.  It is an example of groups.

This is an example of stacks and the columns outside are of the Doric order and represent people.

The clock tower represents stacks and circles.  There is a circle surrounding the clock tower to show its importance.

Blog Post 1/ RR: Orion Group: Gobekli Tepe, Turkey

Gobekli Tepe was called by archeologist Klaus Schmidt, humanity's first "cathedral on a hill."  This site predated Stonehenge by 6,000 years. At one time it was thought to be a burial site, but no human remains have been found. It is now believed to have been a ritual center and/or gathering space.  This Temple was constructed out of monolithic limestones and have relief carvings of animals and symbols that told a story. Before this site was excavated it appeared on a map as a hill, because its last inhabitants carefully filled it with earth.  Some people speculate that this could ave been to help it withstand the earthquakes that were frequent in this area.  Because of this thoughtfulness Gobekli Tepe has stood the test of time.  Current only five prent of the site as been excavated.

My drawing is an illustrative drawing in plan view of a landscape. The drawing describes me as a designer because all I know as of now is landscape design.  I also happen to love landscape design, because of all the free forms you are able to create with living things ( the plants).
