Coming Full Circle

Authenticity

Authenticity can be defined as genuineness and anything that is uncorrupted. It shows that something is pure and undisturbed.

 

Stewardship

Stewardship usually contains a person who is appointed to supervise the affairs of that group and designate certain functions they are to undertake. In design, a specific element of the design and space can often dictate and designate emphasis or functions to another part of the design. For example, in our Sacred Space project, many people took certain elements of their design and allowed them to take on required functions. As in my space, the focal point was centered on the glass block window covering and that essentially paved the way for the rest of the design. The forms were mirrored for different functions and the stewardship was made eminent through that.

 

Innovation

A creation or experimentation of something new is known as an innovation. An innovative design is something that introduces a new technique or design feature to the world of design and its surroundings and environment.

 

Community

A community is a social group of any size whose members resides in a specific locality, share government, and often have a common cultural and historical heritage.
