Descriptive Essay of Tower Room

There might not be a more soothing room to relax and think in than the fourth floor tower room in Blount hall. The walls are painted with a calm shade of yellow and the floors covered in soft brown and tan carpet. The lights are never too bright, but they are also never too dim. It is similar to when the sun sets and light shines through an evening cloud. This is created by a three piece hanging light, dangling on a twenty foot pole, reaching all the way to the tower ceiling. The quaint furniture in the tower room includes small crimson couches that can put a person to sleep by just spending a few moments on them, round wooden tables that can be used for homework, and end tables that have a vintage, homemade look to them.

The room itself, shaped like a tower that one would assume came off of a castle, is a marvel site. It is accentuated with two large sets of windows, each with six smaller windows, and a top that is shaped like a king's crown. Each window is so large it almost takes up the entire wall. The windows are on adjacent walls, creating a feeling as if one was in medieval times, in a Camelot tower.

The view out of these windows is a wonderful one. New and upcoming buildings can be viewed, as well as older buildings that have been standing since before I was born. Students walking to and from class, talking on their cellular phones, and getting in and out of their vehicles are a common site.

On a clear night, all the stars in the Milky Way can be seen from these windows. It is a scene that everyone should be able to enjoy. It looks as if they were being viewed from space, instead of down here on Earth. The peace and quiet of the room is so relaxing that a pen drop can be heard. Your thoughts will float around the room like clouds over a deserted valley. A person could forget about all of their problems and worries and just enjoy some time alone in the tower room
