The Red Wheelbarrow

Many of our discussions, especially those about the elements of design, bring me back to this poem. The idea is that the message depends upon the elements that makes up the work. William Carlos Williams is demonstrating how the elements of his poem, like the red wheelbarrow, are responsible for the imagery that you think of when you read this poem. Similarly, very elements of design that we use/implement to construct our message inevitably forms the way that the viewer sees the design.
