Allyn Hall Serendipity

Learning a little about the Administration of the School of Art and Design from the three students in the Glove Factory, I headed to Allyn Hall to talk to the Adviser Valerie about the possible opportunity of showing student work in their galleries. She was helpful and also told me about the possibilities of showing work at Faner Hall. In Allyn Hall was concrete terrazzo with a honeycomb pattern. It struck me as interesting because Allison, one of the students I talked to at the Glove Factory was in the process of developing three dimensional crochet designs based from honeycomb wasp nests. I felt it was funny because Betsey, my wife, is getting into crochet herself! Things that are interconnected are always fun to ponder about, why does coincidence happen? Or is there such a thing as fate? Odd to manifest in the Hexagon, a shape that had garnered much attention in the Architectural world as a viable design. A 3-Dimensional hexagonal shape is very concise, it is like a circle with a large amount of volume for it's radius, but it's flattened edges allow them to be pushed together without any space between them.
