This reception office has repetition from the lines of the desk, to the lines of light fixtures, and from the form of the desk to the shape above it on the ceiling.  The reception desk uses line, texture, and form to create a strong emphasis in the room.  The lines of the large desk carry your eyes all the way around and points you in the direction of the seating area.  Also, the lighting in the reception area carries you into the waiting area with the use of line. The form of the desk comes from the shape on the ceiling above showing good repetition.  The circles on the floor follow the curves of the desk and create a strong pattern in the room.  The curve on the bench in the waiting area is also a repeat from the desk area.  The lighting above the desk area created a variety from the rest of the lighting but also creates good harmony in the entire space since the rest of the space is unified through the use of line. 

 The use of line from the reception area was carried into this small seating area, as well as the round shapes used in both spaces.  The curve of the paneled wall is continued into the curves of the chairs.  The chairs add color and rhythm to the small space as well as the office space as a whole creating an emphasis that is not too strong. 

Again, line is used in this small meeting room creating a strong repetition though out the whole office.  The room is defined by the shape and form of the curves show in the planked wall, the curves of the furniture, and the use of the spherical lighting fixture.  The furniture is in good proportion to the extremely cramped space and the room has a strong since of harmony. 
 


In this corridor the lines are again shown to be used throughout the whole office space.  The wave used in the wall adds a stronger rhythm to the hall then the smooth curve of the paneled wall.  The straight bench adds a variety to the space and the lines are repeated in the light fixture above that adds a strong emphasis.  All though the light fixture and bench are very straight it creates a strong harmony and the texture of the panels is also repeated in the texture of the lighting.

    I love the lines that the wood creates. It also helps to create emphasis and is very aesthetically pleasing in the spaces shown. I like that you showed multiple pictures to explain the principles and elements.
