In order to learn how to identify the aesthetics of designed objects and environments, you have to embark on an exploration journey of everything that surrounds you. This journey is all about discovery, leaning and thinking.
After that you can analyze the quality of the materials everything is made out of, if they are long lasting, or if they come from a good source {sustainability might be an interesting concept here}. These two criteria are more objective and easy to identify.
Finally, your exploration journey becomes subject to the emotions the environment and its elements make you feel... Excited, anxious, warm, cold, elegant, casual, and so on. My advice is next time you go out for coffee, dinner, lunch or maybe the spa, use all your senses and if your reaction is pleasure, most probably you are in full exploration of the designed environment.
Have a great week and explore endlessly!
Hi dear, I loved the last bit of your great advice, about using all your sense when observing and exploring an environment, this is something I need to be more aware of.
ReplyDeleteFabulous post!! I hope you have a great day doll xx
ReplyDeleteI love to take a camera with me when we're out to dinner/coffee/etc. so I can snap pictures of inspiring design elements- much better than me trying to recall it from memory alone. ;)

ReplyDeleteso fancy! love those flowers and rings!
ReplyDeleteReally good call on using ALL of your senses. I think I rely a little too much on sight and touch and not enough on the others to tell whether or not I like the design of something / some place
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pics! Those rings are stunning!
