Spacial Planning is Amazing

I waited on Ross’ third-floor as cables gently whirred behind the elevator doors. To the left of every set of doors is a panel that can only be likened to shutter shades; it is backlit and a ring plays when that elevator will be the next to arrive. To the right of every set of doors is a floor length mirror. Like this:

As I’m sure nearly every Ross elevator-user is wont to do, I put myself in front of the mirror to study myself while I waited. And as soon as the doors opened, I realized that I had just done the following.

I had moved myself out of the way of the doors (and thereby a potential out-goer’s way) without thinking! My ego had nudged me to the left just a couple of feet, and someone had designed it so. Cool.

p.s. FiftyThree never ceases to amaze. Sketched these up on their new phone app, and am still mid-exploration of the new iPad-version features.
