CONCLUSION WHICH OF THE DESIGN MOVEMENTS COVERED THIS SEMESTER APPEALS MOST TO YOU/INTRIGUES YOU THE MOST AND WHY?

THE DESIGN MOVEMENT THAT APPEALS TO ME MOST FROM THIS SEMESTER IS THE SHAKERS. THE MINIMAL AESTHETIC IS VISUALLY APPEALING AND PRACTICAL. I VALUE THEIR COMMITMENT TO COMMUNITY, LIVING IN HARMONY WITH THE LAND, AND INDUSTRIALISM. THEIR FURNITURE AND ARCHITECTURE EMBODIES A BELIEF IN CRAFTSMANSHIP AND EGALITARIANISM THAT IS EVIDENT.
