Joan Kron’s “The Semiotics of Home Décor” article was my favorite article that we have read so far. I agree with most of the things he mentioned. In today’s society, many people tend to be materialistic and want to show off everything they own to the world, and social media helps with that, as we post pictures on Instagram or Snapchat for the world to see. It is in human nature that we sometimes look for attention from people, but some people use the attention in wrong ways that don’t benefit society. It is not always bad to show off the things you have, like decorating your home can be a good way of showing off, it gets you attention but in a positive way, where you can influence people and inspire them in a good way. Our world would be a much more positive place if people showed off some things the right way and with good intentions. Overall I really enjoyed reading this article.
