This Plate Model (Rounds) was inspired by the Yin & Yang
symbol due to the curves involved. Due to how the symbol
includes enclosing features and how the model 's spiraling
curves is directly inspired from the rotating curves which
expand outwards from the model. Also, upon observing the
model, we can see how the roof of the building contains the
Yin and Yang of the Yin Yang Symbol with the rounds
flowing in the direction of the facing symbol.

Upon observing the given model, it is evident that the model Right view Front view Left view
involves contrast is involved especially when taking into account
the forms derived from this model. Per observation, contrast of
mass can be seen due to the contrast in vertical and horizontal
volumes flowing in different directions which adds contrast to
direction as well. The model also shows contrast of line due to
how the curves are abruptly cut upon reaching the half of the
cylinder with columns and an increasing wave supporting it.
Contrast of size is seen as well due to the varying heights and
volumes of the curves.
