Picture Taken At Sonoma State University

Sound Of Silence.”

This secluded beautiful place is what I chose for my good design portion of my assignment because of the whole enchanted vibe it gives us. The above picture I took is a secluded place that I think is a good place to relax your mind. The fact that the place is surrounded by trees and already looks relaxing from looking at the picture, you can see that it is a good design for people who want be alone and clear their mind. This location is right by the Stevenson building along the grass, it is a little hidden within trees, so not that people would notice it. After passing through this area and saw this design, I just thought to myself how it would be nice for me to relax and listen to music, thinking that I am the only one in this world.

This second blog post is similar to the first blog post, except it is for a bad design I saw in campus. Right off the bat when looking at it, it seems like the design already looks off and out of place. Having a long sink then two regular size sinks, that one long one looks like it should not be there. Story time, when I first saw this sink, I tried to use it but then I could not reach it. Well, I didn’t want to reach over too much, just to wash my hands. I placed myself on that curvature part, but yet still a weird design sink. So, i just ended up using the regular size sink. Not to sure who would be using this sink, but it would make more sense to have three regular size sinks next to each other.

Another reason would be the location of this sink, right when you walk into the bathroom this long sink is placed right in front as you are walking to the stalls. Also, if you can tell in the picture, there are no mirrors where the sinks are. The mirror is placed near the wall towards the door. It would also make sense if the mirror is where you wash your hands. All in all, I believe that this whole bathroom layout is just a bad design and should be remodeled.
