My bedroom is where I stayed most of time.  An operable sliding window (4’x5’5”) is centered along the South wall.The queen size bed and the desk are on the west and east with the window as the center. Computer monitors and keyboards are placed on the desks,Opposite the desk is the dresser with cosmetics. To the left of the bed is a walk-in closet (5’11”x4’3”) containing clothes and stand-alone drawers.  The bathroom door is connected to the room. Facing the door is the sink with skin care products. Next to the sink is the toilet and bathtub.







My bed has two polyester fiber pillows ( Casper Sleep), a polyester comforter and cotton sheets (Target). On the south end dresser is a cosmetic box ( Ulta beauty) with cosmetic brush and lipsticks.  The north end table has a lamp (Target) with an incandescent bulb (60W).Next to the lamp is the walk in closet.

This organizational diagram of my room highlights circulation, zones of activity, and axes of symmetry. The main circulation path travels from the bathroom to my room and around the bed and desk.The zone demarcated by the bed and desk sits within the larger bedroom area.The window is centered on the southern wall creating an axis of symmetry that runs perpendicular to the north and south walls.




This graphic composition is composed of five lines. The circulation line is wide with thin rectangular dashes spaced far apart. Because of the overlap, the corners of the two lines have irregular shapes. The distance line of the southern wall is wide with thin dashed lines. The axis of symmetry is made of nine oval shaped dashes.The larger rectangle has the widest dashes projecting inward as long thin lines nearly filling the entire boundary.





Vectors from the graphic composition are extruded to five heights - 0.8’, 0.1’, 0.5’, 0.4’, and 0.2’  to create a series of blocks.The middle part is lower than the surrounding area The densest area is the top and down corner where the original bed and desk was located.





Two corners of the original room are marked by a thick vertical grid element. Rectangular blocks line the original bed and desk area, which contains a dense collection of shapes near the bottom right and top right corner.  It is capped by eight thick rectangular bars on top and six rectangular bars on the bottom. There are six ellipsoids were erected on the wall.




This view shows the former entry area, which marked as a grid. 
The surrounding walls are composed of two thick vertical elements-a grid and a group of fins.  Six ellipsoids were erected on the wall behind.
