Mid-Semester Review

  At today's critique I received very important and encouraging feedback to help me further my design.  I felt as though all of the guests were very helpful in giving compliments as well as things to fix.
  When talking to Lauren, I gained ideas to help break up too large of spaces into smaller ones.  keeping with my haiku I can elaborate more on what the idea of a pathway really means, and create that atmosphere through my space.
  Mitch gave me constructive criticism in the sense that he told me not to get rid of windows on the front facade of the building.
  Tim gave me plenty of ideas to help break up the space more through programming and sectioning areas off to make every area have a purpose, which is what I really needed to hear.
  Jerry was one of the most helpful today because I got to explain to him what help I needed in specific areas of the space, and he elaborated more on what I can do to further my design.  He also stressed the idea of balance and how things can be asymmetrical because balance is pleasing to the human eye.
From Dot, I gained more knowledge of High Point and she gave some more background on the mill and where they are with it right now.
Finally, from Eddie Belk, I got tons of ideas to help break up my space more.  He was extremely helpful from a schematic standpoint and he also brought a realistic aspect to how big my rooms need to be and also how to make my entrances grand.
To day was very helpful and hearing from several different people that are completely new to the project that haven't quite formed any connections with it yet, I think was the best way to gain true advice and hear sometimes what you really need to hear.
