•How is the interior space organized?How is the room laid out? How are the functions of the space organized? Would this space be part of a larger suite of rooms or is it more self-contained? 
•What is the relationship between architecture and interior?How do the elements of the interior architectural frame (i.e. floors, windows, walls, ceilings, interior architectural details, etc.) relate to the furniture and furnishings? Is there a relationship between interior and exterior architecture? Interior and exterior space?
•How was the space designed and executed? Who would have been responsible for the aesthetic conception of the space? What were they trying to achieve/what principles guided them? Who would have executed the different components of the interior? 
•How are form and ornament used, including iconography or symbolism, sources, and cultural meanings?

Your paper must include at least one clear image of your interior space with a caption indicating the name or title of your interior (e.g. living room, Falling water), responsible parties (i.e. architect/designer etc.) and date.
