Ningbo Art Museum

The Ningbo Contemporary Art Museum was designed with the help of Lu Wenyu and was built in 2005. I love the way she uses a lot of wood for this building. It looks beautiful and I think the stain of the wood is perfect as well. Most of the buildingl is made of wood and the museum has a huge entrance with giant doors. One of my favorite buildings of hers.

Five Scattered Houses

These houses also designed by Lu Wenyu were completed in 2008. The project was commissioned with providing a local precinct where natural elements and people can coexist. As well as to use local and readily-available materials and technology to control cost. I think the houses look great and its nice they took nature and the surrounding elements into account.

Ningbo History museum

The Ningbo Museum was also deigned by Lu Wenyu soon after her library and built in 2005. Another wild looking building but yet again I think it looks awesome. It’s definitely different but different is good sometimes. Completely different from her library this has much more sharp edges and is really just completely different all around.

LIBRARY OF WENZHENG COLLEGE

This library was designed by Lu Wenyu, and I think it is absolutely crazy looking, but in a good way! It looks like it is about to roll over on you. The building is actually kind of old and was built in the year 2000. You can definitely tell she has some new, innovative, and wild ideas when it comes to deigning buildings. I love this Library and the way it looks.

THE Palace on the Prairie

This is by far my favorite building on campus, The Gaylord Memorial Stadium. I’ve been to every game since I’ve been a student at OU. When I think about this stadium the feeling that always comes to mind is excitement. There is nothing like being at the Palace on Saturdays, pure excitement and adrenaline. Its also one of the biggest and prettiest stadiums I have ever seen.

the bizzell memorial library

The Biz is one of the first buildings I went to on campus. I remember thinking about how beautiful it was. The feelings I first felt when I saw this building were definitely nervousness but also excitement for my new chapter in life. Any time I have family visit I make sure to show them this building. I think its the prettiest building on campus.

Bixby OK. My second home

As you can see from the title this is the second home my family lived in. It was actually in the same neighborhood as the first. Its a older house but bigger so it was good for our growing family. It also had a pool in the backyard. I have a lot of good memories of me and my friends swimming at this house and playing in the yard.

8517 Bixby OK. My First Home

This is my very first home that I can ever remember living in. We moved here when I was 3 and continued to live here until I was 8. This house brings back very good memories for me. A time when things were a lot more simple and a lot more stress free. It was only a 3 bedroom Single Family Home but it seemed huge when I was little.
