Well, I started my day off at my new favorite place on the face of this earth, Bar del Cappuccino. The owner, Luigi, makes designs in every cup of cappuccino. This includes apples, like the design I had this morning, roses, birds, and other things. The coffee is some of the best I've ever had and not to mention, the cheapest! I also eat a marmalade filled croissant with my coffee almost every morning. At lunch, Bar del Cappuccino makes pastrami sandwiches to die for. Luigi's daughter just about kills herself making sandwich after sandwich. As I said, the greatest place on Earth.
Well, as the title of this post states, we started our second project of the semester today. The name of the project is Il Nodo E L'Incontro. This translates in English to the node and the meeting. Nodes are areas in a landscapes where people converge or meet. This is very important in the study of my major because placing your designs at these specific points ensures that they will be used to the fullest extent. Luc Vosberg and I are partnered together for this project. We randomly wandered through the Trastevere part of the city of Rome. This is the same section of the city where my apartment is located. While wandering, we found a hilltop that overlooks the city. This is where this photo was taken. It was amazing to see a large portion of the city at one time. I will definitely be visiting this site again in the near future. We continued our project later in the night where we compiled a PowerPoint presentation of the path that we took through Trastevere. We present the PowerPoint tomorrow.
