Blog Post 3:

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.
