reflection 4

From reading this article I gained a new perspective of looking at everyday objects. I had never realized all the different ways to look at something as simple as a chair and the symbol and image a chair can create. It is interesting to realize that something with a certain use can enrich a room it is in by the looks of it. In fact, a television with the right look to it can even act as an accessory fitting into the room. However, if it looks different from the rest of the room it changes the whole feel of the room. I think it is important for kids to start looking at functional things in this new light with using the seven ideas because it shows them all the different ways the object can be viewed as by other people.
