The Spinner’s Grace by Gerald Dou

Narrative
A humble home for a blessed thread maker woman.

Script
The harsh noonday light softened perhaps by a screen of leaves falls through an open window. The lights fall lightly through illuminating the modest interior of the space as it continues to fade. The illuminated area is at presence by a sensible yet lonesome woman. Feeling blessed a little prayer before the food is raised with humbleness. The room is left untidy with the misplacing of a thread other household equipments.

Creative Thinking Process
This woman is a hard worker as she belongs from a lower class somehow represent the behaviour of ant. Therefore, ant will be the inspirational source. Ant build their own living space. The idea that can be extract is a solid space that some parts will be taken out and the hollow space will be connected.

ARCH1201 Project 1 Villa Muller

Analysis
Villa Muller, built in 1870 has severe external facade and interior comprised of interconnected multilevel rooms with the space and height of each room suited to its function. Even though the exterior is simply covered with white concrete, the interiors are far from this simplicity. There are bold uses of color and also variety uses of materials. It is the part of his approach to create an environment life for the residents.
