Location: in the kitchen at my house
Objective: No light streaming in from the window. All the fluorescent lights in the kitchen are on and the light has a more cooler tone. The kitchen is in a decent state. The cabinets are a mid-tone warm wood, the floor is made of plain white tiles, and all the appliances are a steel grey.
Subjective: The lighting in the kitchen reminded me of our “cold” themed photo observation assignment. I never noticed how the lighting in the kitchen made the kitchen seem so cold and lifeless. Despite the obvious mentions of livingness through the many items displayed in the kitchen, the cool fluorescent lighting washes it all out. It felt like the kitchen was empty and dull-probably the only the part that doesn’t feel like home. Also explains why I prefer lowering the lights whenever I start cooking,
