The dinning table is designed to be a rotated shape, to express the complexity of the term of power, as well as the public images of two clients. For Madonna's elevator, two sharp triangles shape are used to express Madonna's aggressive personality, and her converse images on older generation, which is also the power of her: breaking the regualrity. On the other hand, a generally regular shape is used for Obama's elevator, to express that as the president of U.S the power of him should be used less radical. Also, the inspiration of the armrests, derived from the white columns of the White House, which the symbolic building of the political power.

EXP3 News Mashup
Fear and power do not peacefully coexist, and for Obama, it is the time to mentally unpacking the crate of crushing problems — some old, some new, all ugly. It follows, then, that he who wishes to reach the most rarefied and potent ranks. Also, this courage can be used to describe Miuccia Prada, and What sets her apart from the ordinaries, is her disregard—in some cases, her open contempt—for the dictates. They hit the world like a thunderclap, shattered decades of conventional wisdom and overcame centuries of the social pecking order. However, as it says, power may brought you the mystery that Whereas common sense says what, they will still choose whatever people despise, because of the power they have to make it beautiful. Media, as one of the means brought them power of being looked up to, had also made them victims of overexposure, just like Madonna. Although she has an action-packed body, always prominently on display, and doleful, knowing eyes that seem to encourage every male fantasy of lust with no limits, she could still be criticised by journalists saying she may not represent a new direction for the music business. Indeed, the power of all of the clients, may brought glorified honours to them , But the measure of their success in menacing times can be found in the number and variety of people who consider the question with eagerness alongside their dread.

EXP2 Reflection on Lecture 7
In the first place, the very strong force brought by the quality of image editing skills, well illustrated the theme of the project, and a better understanding by readers, can occur with using impressive presentation like the images above. More importantly, as one of images showed, a repetitious pattern of concrete blocks above within the limited interior space, had created a very imaginative effect, people standing underneath, would not feel the space in small, in contrast, it would actaully stimulate people to participate a wider range of architectural experience, as well as a certain sense that architect wanted to express, and that was my inspiration on designing the inner space of Jacques Cousteau's lab. For the other image, the usage of grid system, had been well combined with various elements, which produced a sense of movement with variable qualities. The linear shape of the architecture, was applied, and it had became another inspiration of mine on this experiment as well.

Alfred Nobel: "Hope is nature's veil for hiding truth's nakedness."
Jacques-Yves Cousteau: "A lot of people attack the sea, I make love to it."
A lot of people see hope as uncovering truth's nakedness, but I make love to hide it underneath the veil instead.
