Maya Lin: Planning to Design the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington DC

But at other times, the aim was to get dark like the Lincoln Memorial: "Why go to places that are historically meaningless for pilgrims to read ubiquitous sentences Part of the address of Gettysburg is a memorial The purpose was to remind Lincoln's achievements to others.The introduction of the most important aspects of the Gettysburg speech makes it possible for people coming to the memorial to visit Lincoln's overall heritage You can respect.

The basic idea of ​​this site is taken from the famous Vietnam War memorial monument in Washington DC. This was designed by Chinese American artist Maya Lin at the age of 21. The black wall of the deceased's name spans two places - the walls of Vietnam are reflective, so the funeral shop can see their image, but the gable of Tang is a deep stone. However, except for the walls, the pool, and its central structures, it creates excellent artworks of value to every visitor.

Maya Lynn Vietnam War Veteran Memorial is one of the 10 most popular buildings in the United States. However, when her design was selected from 1,421 proposals submitted in the design competition submitted by the Vietnam Veterans Veterans Memorial Fund in 1981, the initial response was negative. If it is not a blind competition, it is widely believed that not only college students at the time but also Ms. Hayashi of Asian Americans and women will not be selected as a finalist. Lin's design is an invisible but meaningful architectural design tool that relies on the use of three axes, making it simpler, and ultimately more powerful, initially creating an environment between unrelated locations or structures. They can express respect for existing structures while borrowing them to create more than the sum of those parts. Because the magnetic poles of the two magnets may pull or repel, you can also use the shaft to create the contrast.
