Assignment 2- Room and Narrative

Painting: "The Geographer" by Johannes Vermeer

There is one source of light in the painting coming from the only window. There appears to be a left to right flow in this painting accentuating the flow of light into the space/room. The light spills over into the large open area on the right of the room casting a series of powerful shadows.

 

The Character (the designer) has an active stance as if he is inspired or drawn to what is on the other side of the window. He is surrounded by many interesting geometries.

Narrative: A secluded mountain side retreat morfted into the landscape for a designer who is inspired by nature.

The Site: Is located nestled amongst a serene mountain range in the south of norway overlooking a semi frozen lake.
