My Culture experience – the Humanized design
in OSU
This weekend, I had enough spare time to walk
around the OSU camps carefully. I put this little trip as a discovery. I used
my camera to explore the different culture phenomenon between China an America.
Finally I got my culture experience, the Humanized designs in OSU.
Now get ready to follow my view! When I wanted
to go out of the dorm, the sound of my refrigerator reminded me of the different rules of using electrical equipment between China. In Chinese
universities, students are not allowed to use electrical equipment after
11:00pm and the power of the equipment do not allow over 1000w. That means you
can’t use a blower in you dorm!
Actually, there are a lot of humanized
designs in the dorm while in China we don’t have. Living in my dorm is quite
comfortable because I can buy a snack or a drink in the vending machines
instead of going out to buy things in China; I don’t need to worry that there
is no toilet paper in the restrooms; I can wash my clothes at any time!

While
I was walking on the street, I could see the description board of each building
clearly. This humanized design makes it easier for new students to find their
classrooms and to know the buildings’ names and locations. Unfortunately, there
was sudden rain! I ran into the Thompson Library and kept myself from getting
wet. The first thing I saw in the Library was the umbrella bags. The bags kept
the floor dry and prevented the rain from wetting the clothes.
Interesting characterization of the architecture.
