Victorian

Image
Here is a good example of a a Victorian bedroom. You can see how elaborate the entire thing feels, the matching of the furniture and how it in a way feels modest. While a recreation, I could easily see it as something owned during the period. https://atzine.com/2016/10/14/victorian-bedrooms/ The fashion is both elaborate and yet modest, normal for the time, with the sense of keeping things hidden while also showing off fashion and expense.  http://reviewerblogshops.blogspot.com/2011/05/fashion-trend-asian-korean-fashion.html This house falls into the Victorian style primarily due to it's symmetry. Both sides are nearly identical, and the pointed tops give it a gothic appeal. The elaborateness of the windows and the archways also indicate towards a more Victorian or Gothic style. http://nsdesignsonline.com/2017/12/15/fascinating-victorian-style-homes/

Art Nouveau

Image
 Here you see the tendril like quality that almost makes the furniture feel more alive, plus the incorporation of wood and nature through the color scheme.  https://essenziale-hd.com/2019/09/18/art-nouveau-furniture-collection-in-musee-dorsay/ This dress feels like it belongs in the period because of the naturistic quality of it, with the tendril yet flower petal like quality of the skirt. Nicolas Jebran Spring 2015 Couture Collection The tendril like railings on the stairs, plus seen on the walls and the sloped curve of the house, create a very art nouveau feeling. https://www.decoist.com/2014-04-15/unique-creative-staircase-designs/?chrome=1

Arts and crafts

 This building belongs into the Arts and Crafts period due to it's incorporation of nature, not only with the central tree but the natural lighting and incorporation of stones and wood into the building itself. https://www.goodnet.org/articles/7-amazing-buildings-designed-to-incorporate-nature This dress not only incorporates nature, but it also relies heavily on natural materials like cotton, something the period was well known for. https://www.demilked.com/contrast-fashion-nature-liliya-hudyakova/ This chair easily fits the era due to its incorporation of nature, as it uses actual branches from a tree to shape the chair. https://www.upcyclist.co.uk/2011/04/inspired-by-nature/

Dreams

 Tuesday's dreams: On Tuesday I woke frustrated, because I had a dream that was very exciting and I was getting very invested in, but my alarm woke me up before I could finish the dream. I desperately tried to remember what the dream was, but I had already forgotten it in frustration before I could wake up. It was very consistent and not as jumbled as normal. Wednesday's dreams: On Wednesday I don't remember any dreams I had during my main night of sleep. I wake up frequently during the middle of the night, so when I went back to sleep I had a mini dream that I couldn't remember, just flashes of sound and light, but it was gone by the time I woke up.
