As a student of the College of Architecture Planning & Landscape Architecture (CAPLA), we are provided with numerous opportunities to attend sessions related to architecture that can further our knowledge about different topics related to this art form. However, it is very noticeable that few take advantage of these opportunities even when most of these events are free to attend. Because of this, it leads me to look at 2 different flyers from recent events to try to understand how these advertising materials work and how they try to convince and encourage people to attend the events that are being promoted. The first piece of advertisement is a flyer for a session about traditional Tucson crafts with a contemporary design. Lastly, I will investigate a flyer about women in sustainability and feminist organizations. To fully understand this writing genre, I will look for patterns in the strategies being used, the design of each flyer and the choices each designer made to make their product more appealing. ArandaLasch (See figure 1) The first handout is about architects Chris Lasch and Ben Aranda, basket weaver Terrol Dew Johnson. These professionals are highlighting the blending of traditional crafts with contemporary designs. The crafts ranged from baskets to architecture with inspiration from the Sonoran Desert. This is a free event in which is open to the public but it is mainly intended for people who are familiar with crafts and architecture, which are two of the oldest
Native American basketry is a difficult task and it takes a lot of skill. It was utilized for many purposes such as gathering, cooking, storing and drinking. I believe the dealers lore led to the transformation of artwork due to the amount of skill that was put into weaving baskets. These are now displayed
Old Sturbridge Village has been showcased in a number of articles, demonstrating that an advertisement for Old Sturbridge Village is correctly placed. A large majority of the audience of this magazine are people who are interested in visiting popular areas in the New England region for the reason of learning about the history and culture of the area. This audience will be easily swayed and attracted to the use of language and rhetorical appeals in the advertisement. The use of language and phrases such as “Make History,” (citation) are cleverly designed to promise something to the target audience. In “The Rhetoric of Advertising” the author details on the techniques used to make these promises seem attainable. While the phrases used are not specifically detailed in (Language Acts reading) many of the same principles apply. In the advertisement the text and image have a primary rhetorical appeal to attract potential consumers, and that primary appeal is pathos. Pathos is utilized in order to generate an emotional response to give the audience a need to wish to experience and learn about a simpler
By just stating the important points and more use of pictures proved to be more eye catching for us and potential consumers. This could help achieve the aims of this organisation as students and working class people could notice this poster when they shop at local newsagents or public areas when they go to work or college. Although these won't be distributed to houses like leaflets, they will be situated at public areas such as on buses or some of the local shops nearby. This would increase customer awareness of the business on a whole or be a drawback as some people like the elderly who do not shop as often as other student are more likely to miss the poster rather than students who walk past on a day to day

What is the difference between art and advertisement? Where is the line between Pin-ups and pornography? What is and is not considered sexual harassment? Not all of the questions asked have a clear, black and white, answer. Although, Lauren Rosewarne, a senior lecturer at the University of Melbourne and a popular author who often discusses topics such as: gender, sexuality, and public policy, argues that there are clear answers/differences. In one of her journal articles, “Pin-ups in public space: Sexist outdoor advertising as sexual harassment” she claims that outdoor advertisements are too similar to pin-ups and how that is not art but rather more in the realm of sexual harassment. As a graphic design major who has a background in art and advertisement, I have different opinions and disagree with some of the points Rosewarne made. I want to explore the definition of art, advertisement, and sexual harassment in order to discuss why outdoor advertisements are not sexual harassment.

The idea of the vernacular is strong in Australian architecture and is often defined in terms of the 'city ' and the 'bush '.
Larkin put "The Building" in the middle of his collection for a reason, it is a pillar that supports the rest of the collection with its long lines and many verses, and because of this, is maybe a bit more clearer than some of his other poems in the ideas and views that are expressed through it. Of course, being a Larkin a poem, there is the obligatory underlayer which so many people miss, but in "The Building" it is easier to discern and comprehend.
Green buildings could become one of the main factors to preserve our rapidly decaying environment. There is no easy way to define a green building, but a green building is essentially a structure that amplifies the positives and mitigates the negatives throughout the entire life cycle of the building (Kriss, 2014). There are many definitions for a green building, but all of them include the planning, designing, constructing, and operating of the building while taking into huge considerations of the energy use, water use, indoor air environment, materials used and the effect it has on the site the green building is being built on. The first green buildings dates back to as far as the 1970’s, when solar panels went from experiments to reality. Green buildings were not as popular as they are today due to their extremely high pricing. With technology rapidly growing, solar panels are becoming cheaper and cheaper, making the transition to creating green buildings more affordable. This is the primary reason for the increased growth of green buildings today. A modern company that is paving the way to the growth of green buildings named LEED, Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, focuses primarily on new and effective ideas for environmentally friendly buildings projects. With more than 60,000 commercial projects worldwide and 1.7 million square feet being certified every day, LEED is one of the leading groups for promoting green buildings. LEED has popularized the entire

Advertising has been defined as the most powerful, persuasive, and manipulative tool that firms have to control consumers all over the world. It is a form of communication that typically attempts to persuade potential customers to purchase or to consume more of a particular brand of product or service. Its impacts created on the society throughout the years has been amazing, especially in this technology age. Influencing people’s habits, creating false needs, distorting the values and priorities of our society with sexism and feminism, advertising has become a poison snake ready to hunt his prey. However, on the other hand, advertising has had a positive effect as a help of the economy and society.
