      <title>THE AESTHETIC Vs THE UTILITARIAN: Block C by Emily Wilkinson</title>
      <link>https://padlet.com/ewilkinson23/svvvn7e61j7j151y</link>
      <description>An aesthetic object appeals to the senses and evokes a sense of beauty or sensual appeal; Something utilitarian is useful, practical; it is sensible, serviceable, and functional. Choose one of the following categories: food, clothing, household objects, dwelling/homes/architecture, furniture, pets/animals, . Then choose two items that fit into to this category: One should be utilitarian; the other should be aesthetically pleasing. See my example posted.</description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Afghan hounds are prized for their long, silky, coats, gracefully slim bodies, and elegant gait. The average cost for a puppy is $7000, and the breed requires time-consuming daily brushing. These dogs are also prone to expensive health conditions such as cataracts and hypothyroidism. This is a dog for someone who prizes beauty above practical or financial considerations. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Seeing eye dogs are not really pets: They are working dogs. The animals are chosen for their dispositions and their ability to be trained to serve their masters rather than any aesthetic consideration. These animals are practical necessities to the visually impaired. No thought is given to the look of the animal. </div>]]></description>
