I grew up in fairly small town, so naturally coming to the city was an overall overwhelming experience. Those around me guided me; specifically people familiar to the surroundings, and with their guidance then was I able to soon navigate the city on my own. Now being a junior, experiencing Boston for the third year of my life, do I feel naturally comfortable exploring the city and what it has to offer. Architecture heavily impacts the way I orient through a space. Whenever I see an architecturally enriched building, I can’t help but stop, admire, and explore the site taking in the strategic plan of the structure. Favorite places of mine in Boston relate to places where I have found inspirational architecture. This kind of architecture is what physically, mentally, and emotionally draws an observer in. Once inhabiting an inspirational space, I continue to go there fond of it environment, but I also bring others who are unfamiliar to the city life. It must be noted that everyone is different; therefore different constructions stimulate different people. I look to the pavement for guidance, because I am heavily influenced by the shadows that a building creates.
