Another special card from Huiqi~~~Especially written in Chinese Calligraphy to wish

Thanks to our thirsty Huiqi for 'encouraging' Gab to learn mandarin.

I used to be fascinated by this kind of design. Criss crossin' of lines forming multiple triangles. I thought they are cool. Very different from the normal building facades I normally see. As this is a SALES and DESIGN centre, I suppose it has to stand out, design wise. I think they really achieve their goal to stand out compared to their surrounding buildings. However after sometime, I realize this kind of design is everywhere~~~ Its on books, buildings, landscape, furniture and even utensils..plates and bowls...Sometimes, a design style which is repeated so often, it can make people think that in order to be designer, one has to achieve or seek something like what we see at the above. IF it doesn't look anything like the above style, its not a good design. What do you think???Or the question is....How do you define/identify a good design? Something to think about...

WHAT're you looking at HUH?!!!!

2008-03-13T22:22:00.003+08:00

NEVER see Mafia draw irrigation plan before ah HUH!!~~~ColouRRRrrrred some more~~

2008-03-13T22:01:00.003+08:00

As you can already see I'm quite outdated in blogging compared to Gabriel, lagging by one week! This is a video where Mr Tan brought us to try some Hokkien Mee...and YEAH~~~very nice.......and that day he told us that the Cha kueh Tiaw is also very nice so Gab and I went back to try on the second visit to the site. I think its our luck that we were having our food while one of the stalls were frying EXTREMELY spicy sambal chilli and everyone around us were like...cough~~coughcough~~~cough~~~cough!~~~while EATING~~~:)
The video I took was after I finish my food, trying to catch Gab coughing while chewing..but too bad..I was the one coughing like mad!

Working amongst nature....

A photo of The Pinnacle under construction. Taken while we are having something to eat after site visit. Interesting to see what its like to be on a real job site where a real landscape is going to be implemented. Witnessing the 'before' landscape and I can't wait till its completed to see the 'After' landscape. The building also of course!

2008-03-05T17:07:00.003+08:00

we went to duxton again to survey the current location of the tree but this time we got to go in the construction area where we are to wear to hard hat (which was quite comfortable, to my surprise)... here are some photos of michele modeling with her very own hard hat...

2008-02-27T23:31:00.010+08:00

Its a very busy morning,
all the insects
and snails
are all rushing
back to to find a moist and
dark spot to hide
until its dark again.
While most people
have to avoid
heading into another
person amongst the
overly congested
human traffic in the
Mass Rapid Transit(MRT),
I get to avoid some
interesting 'traffic' which
was left behind by
mother nature
to entertain me.:)
Can't help myself from
sharing this beautiful
flowering plant
with whoever reads this,
its a shrub called
Hibiscus mutabilis.
Its like a nature's clock.
When the sun rises
in the morning its
white then it slowly
turns into pink as
the sun sets.
Cool isn't it!!
My attachment office is a
Landscape architure
consultancy firm.
This is the
office landscape
right before
I enter into the
real office world
(which gabriel had
posted previously).
Lush tropical and really makes me
feel like I work in a woodlands.

It has this wonderfully mysterious feeling
which I enjoy walking through every morning.:)
