Groups, Stacks, and Circles

 












These four photos were all taken inside of the EUC. The top two were taken in the back and the other two were taken in the front. The ceiling and the pattern on the floor are pretty much identical. By them choosing repetition of this layout it just shows that it is important.
Also the EUC could be considered "the heart of campus" because so many people pass through here everyday going to class or getting their books or even just to eat. So by the shapes in the space being circles it makes sort of a focal point and allows it to feel as a gathering space.

These three buildings also known as the Forney building, the Faculty Center, and the Alumni House all represent three different displays of columns. When I look at columns I think of the symbol of people because each column has a base, a shaft, and a capita.

This is a photo taken out side of the music building. I think this photo is a good representation of groups stacks and circles. The rocks represent the groups, the brick on the back of the pond represent the stacks, and the pond represents the circle.  By using all the different symbols I feel that it helps create this comfortable essence about it that draws people to it. Which kind of brings up an interesting thing that happened when I took this picture there was a couple standing at it getting engaged. Which comes to show that the symbols all working together creates a beautiful scenery.

I just wanted to add this to my blog because of how all the other statues were considered off limits. Except for when I was walking around campus I stumbled across this stone behind the health center that had the spartan head on it :)
