A Visit to the Hocken Collections -- Nozomi Kikuchi

 I liked South City the most at Reece King’s The Ogee & Mania Exhibition. This picture depicts various objects with different shapes and lines on an overall gray base. I felt that the design looked like street art, which I could associate with the word “City” in the title.

 During the tour on the first floor, I learned that all kinds of paper materials related to New Zealand—such as books, magazines, and newspapers—are preserved there. What left the strongest impression on me was the collection of architectural drawings. I think it's unusual that a library stores such plans, and I became interested in looking more closely at the designs of famous buildings in Dunedin, as well as Western-style architecture that cannot be seen in Japan, in order to understand the differences in design.
