Beauty and Aesthetics

Well, as we were discusing in class, the beauty and the esthetics of a product mind more or as much as quality and usefulness do. I think the most important factor is the usefulness, because if there's a GOOD PRODUCT but not necessarily beautiful, I'd buy it; but if it's ONLY BEAUTIFUL BUT NOT USEFUL, I'd never buy it!

Function of Aesthetics in products


Aesthetics in the design of products refer to the reaction of people in a specific object, and the answer through senses. In the article Varela said mind is the sixth human body’s organ, so thinking is perceived by mind. Aesthetic in products covers many aspects for example when a person feels good when he use a complex object.


The Aesthetic is important by itself, because it give intrinsic rewards. In the world, the function is attracting the customers’ attention, give positive feelings to people.
An example is that a 70% of people bought a Volkswagen by transport themselves and have a car cheaper and practical. When it was reached people decide improve more their lives and it is possible buy a car more modern, elegant, have aesthetic. That is the difference of nowadays.







In conclusion, aesthetic and beauty are the new of now, because it’s not only live, else how a human should live according the possibility that one have. Who don’t want improve in this life? I think all, right. That is why aesthetic and beauty is part of our lives.
As an advice, I tell you if you want to buy any product, first you must think the product should meet your needs and it must work well, after that check the appearance and so, in order to you feel comfortable of it.




Good luck…..

Myself and my school


Welcome, I'm Xiomara Tapia. I've been living in Huancayo since 1990. I want to tell you my experience at the school. In my first school, I studied at Gelicich, I really don't remember so much because I was so younger, but my parents said that Gelicich School was a good experience, because they found friends and I had good teachers. I studied at Zarate school since 2000. To me this was the best school that I studied, because I found good friends, I learned a lot of things specially in mathematics themes. But my parents took the decision to change me of school. I have been studying at Andino School since 2004 to 2006. I made friends but it had other traditions and I didn't really like. Finally I want suggest you, It's better if you choose your school and the most important thing is that you really feel confortable.

First reading :) : SENSE OF AESTHETICS

Everyone has a sense for beauty. Whether a beautiful landscape, a beautiful tiger, a beautiful peacock, or a beautiful rose or tree, or a beautiful human being, all are sources of aesthetical feeling. They raise in us some kind of admiration, some sort of delight.
Whether beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder or it is inherent and radiant in the object itself is an open question , so in our society we could choose or define some in accordance of the physical aspect of  everything and this is cause we could feel more comfortable or confidence with things that are aesthetics or beauty.
By the way in our own lifes always do that , in my personal I always choose something that is comfortable for me and has a good appearance, for example : when I hav to decide for a pair of shoes , I always buy something that is beausty , wacky and cutting of edge.
On the other hand the apperance of something is not the most important , maybe if we have to choose a machine for a hospital , we have to look for a good function that could dure for a good time.
In conclusion the beauty and aesthetics are important but not all.

Is the presentation in products important?

Well many people say that the presentation in a product isn´t important that the only important thing is the quality but I can say that: that´s false because all or most enters when we see the product and in many times we can decide if buy or no something only seening the presentation so i read an article about this the BEAUTY IN PRODUCTS I can say that:
the objective is take the attention of the target audience because the industry wants to make a big impression in you.
Other important thing is use pictures that causes impression.There are many ways to improve the presentation of something so we can start looking for something better.

introducing me...

Hi, everybody. I'm writing this profile to introduce myself to you, my dear classmates. My full name is Frank Anthony Hurtado Paz. Many of my friends call me only Frank. My parents gave me that name, because before I was born one of my uncles, Francisco, died and my mother decided to name me only Frank. I'm from Huancayo. I'm 15 years old and I'm a student. I study at salesiano high school that is where I stay in the picture.I like every kind of music and also I like to watch TV. In my picture I am with my best friends Luis who is wearin a gray sweatshirt and Peter who is wearing a white sweater. I'm just in the middle of the picture. I'm learning english here,in Huancayo, at ICPNA. I want to learn english, because I'm very interested in this language. I know that english is the most popular language at the hour of business and work and nowadays everybody wants to learn english, because we want to have more opportunities to work and travel overseas. Learning english, I think, is not only learning a new language. It is learning also an other way to communicate with people and it's learning another culture too. In fact you can make a lot of new firends too ando you can learn another culture meeting new people too.
