Still-life vignettes reveal moments of pause, allowing viewers to seek beauty in the daily objects we call "stuff." By framing these moments, we begin to analyze the elements that influence the scenes, such as lighting conditions, object placement, and composition. This case study focuses on the Courtyard House by Studio Junction. By limiting the views strictly to the ground floor, we begin to understand the many narratives that can occur in the daily life of its habitants, solely in this one area.
