Late Review: Tacoma Art Museum Review

Wednesday, May 15th, 2013. Grace and I took our journey to the Tacoma Art Museum where they’re showcasing  ”Beyond Books: The Independent Art of Eric Carle”. Eric Carle is known for writing children’s books such as “ Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?”, “Have You Seen My Cat?” and most famously “The Very Hungry Caterpillar”, including those books he has written over 70 books.

First entering the museum it had a crisp, clean, cut feel to it, what really caught me and Grace’s attention at first was the huge display of giant colorful marbles in the center of the walk way as you advance to see other paintings and such. We first we were introduced to Eric Carle’s works which were books, giant paintings, even cut out characters from his books, all Eric’s paintings are extremely colorful and a little over whelming, having you think “I wonder how long it took to paint this thing?”. As we made our way up stairs we had the chance to see others artists works from paintings to sketches, etc. It’s very nice to see a variety of work from people all over the world, expressions, emotions, passion it seemed fill the place.

I had a fun time at the museum, I only wish that it had more to show as we made our way to the top it was just workshops, and stores. Either than that I enjoy my visit to the museum and recommend to my fellow classmates.

The Lamp

There is only one use for a lamp. It lights the room up. Everything I have designed thus far needs to follow certain rules. The couch has to be large and comfortable. The reclining chair has to be able to recline. The coffee table has to have a flat surface to place things on. These objects have a certain look to them. If you really wanted to change how they are you would need to completely revolutionize it’s design. The lamp however, doesn’t have this. A lamp can look like anything, it can be anything, as long as it produces light you can call it a lamp. Lamps can be made out of anything. It is something that usually leans towards a more aesthetic approach when you are designing it.

People have been using sources of light ever since we discovered fire. Since humans cannot see very well at night we have been using light as a way to protect ourselves and go places that we never would have dreamed of. Being able to manipulate light has changed how humans live. We can stay up well past nightfall and as a result we have more time to learn and discover. The sun is no longer a source of life but a huge lamp.

So for this design I am actually going to focus on aesthetics. I said I would do this on the coffee table but I soon realized that it would make more sense for the coffee table, reclining chair, and couch to all match. I want this lamp to match as well but I want to make it stand out. The whole purpose of this project was to create an ergonomic furniture set. Not all of the furniture pieces are completely ergonomic when they are by themselves but when they are put together they make an ergonomic living room that utilizes the function of the living room as well as the space.
