Window Displays

This first window display demonstrated the principals of unity as well as variety. The various colors in the stripes of paper provide variety, yet the fact that the paper is the same shape and size provides the unity. Furthermore, this window display exemplifies solid rhythm because of the downward motion of the hanging strips of paper

This window display demonstrates the design principal of rhythm seeing as though the foliage appears to be hanging in the same direction creating a cohesive flow from top to bottom. Additionally  a contrast is created from the high key lighting at the top of the window display in comparison to the low key bottom lighting.

This window display demonstrates the design principal of transition and connection. It does this by transitioning our eyes from the foreground and background by the varying the heights and distances between the paper flower and the ground. The elements in the window display are in connection because they are composed of the same materials, colors and proportions.

This window display highlights the design principal of unity and variety because each individual paper flower has its own distinct characteristics unique to that individual module, but when viewed on a macro level all of the individual shapes are unified by similar colors, shape and overall aesthetic feeling.

Both of these window displays are similar in the sense of contrast. Contrast is exemplified by the extreme texture of the flowers in the foreground which is in juxtaposition to the smooth background.
