'het scheepvaartmuseum' by dok architecten, amsterdam, the netherlands
I think this image is a perfect example of the vocab words for this homework assignment. This image is perfectly balanced because it feels and looks very even. The ceiling of this restored building is a great example or radial balance because all of the supporting beams converge at one axis. When the builing was restored, the ceiling was added and I think that the contrast between the typical structure of an ancient building and the nonobjecive glass/medal work on the ceiling work nicely together. Although the bright lighting goes against most idealist views, I think it is a very modern and playful view on restoration.
