Shelter Reflection 2- Foundation Art and Design

?????????????????????????????? Maasai_shelter

My second external source are these two pictures of a basic hut shelter and a castle built in England. I decide that I wanted to compare these two pictures of shelters and how they differed from each other. In the first picture you can see this huge castle that I’m sure contains many bedroom a kitchen, living rooms etc. The first shelter pictures is an example of recreational living. It is not necessary to have some much space and yet people dream about living in a house this big. It is a shelter but a very complex one. The second picture you can see that this hut is very basic and may contain one single living space. This shelter is very minimal and basic but does the same job the castle does. These shelters are very different from each other but do a lot of the same things. Both are made to protect from harm and to provide comfort. I think that although one may seem more elegant that the other in the situation people in third world countries are in all they want is something that can give them their basic needs of shelter. A shelter although seen different from many people is a place were you can have the basic need of safety.
