This is the first floor of what the Seattle Public Library looks like in the form of a site plan. This is an architectural diagram ith emphasis on shaded spaces on what we consider a datum. A datum is simply the frequent repetition of a feature within a diagram, and in this case, there are a frequent amount of similar structures that resemble book cases. This was taken after the third reconstruction in 2002 of the library. I selected this as mt artifact because of my interest in architecture and design. This is like a little puzzle piece of how I wil be analyzing places in my future career as an architect.
Through taking architecture courses this semester, I have learned a lot more than I would if I had avoided taking the heavier courses first. I learned that I wanted a developed background that can act as a great connection in the design world so I am pursuing my B.A in History of Art right now with a projected graduation of spring 2020. Then off to design school for another bachelors in interior design and then to grad school for architecture. I want a well rounded education that I found I can cultivate with an art history background. Art history offers me exactly that and i am grateful to have experienced these revelations now rather than later.
