Why might the artist have used the particular setting?

   Every part is simplified shows that ideal home to workers.

figure/ground relationships?

   In this poster, I think there are one figure and background.

figure/figure relationships?

   artist used same colors but different tones so it has unity. Figures are simplified. Figures shows big figure which is a worker and houses. He tried to draw figure with triangle, circle, and rectangle.

What is the artists saying with the composition?

   He divided by two parts which are graphic and text. Graphic also divided by two part which are figure and background so it looks more clear.

What is the artists saying with light?

   Instead having light, every single figure has shades.

How might you evoke similarly without any text?

   Every shape is simplified and consist of simple shape. 

How might you change the mood without any text in a manner that stays true to the original artwork?

   I will change background which could be more friendly and using these color.
