Point commentary.

By reading my peers points I have come to understand how the alternative and the reflection units can be interpreted in different ways as well as getting the main point across. As a result I have developed a better understanding of the material at hand.



The alternative unit basically means that the people are taking what has already been built and altering it to create something new by breaking the rules and thinking outside the box. This idea brings many past ideas into the present creating a series of revival styles. These ideas were based off of the foundations which is why they continue to expand and move forward and these past ideas, even though sometimes they are not really noticeable, are seen all over in todays society.


Design is moving forward and I have some to understand that the reflection unit is about the series of revolutions, whether political or social, have led to ideas that started turning the wheels of progression and from there design was starting to change. Design languages began to compete with one another and there was a struggle to understand and discover what “modern” truly was. In order to explore what modern was people looked for influences from other counties And the east begins to influence design in the west. As a result I have come to understand that revolution is always present and always will be and that is why the term “modern” can never truly be defined.

The image I chose I believe can relate to both points. I believe that it is breaking the rules and stepping outside the box because it is different to see s till image that produces the illusion of movement as well as the fact that it reflects the wheels that are turning.
