Hort Park (early 2007)











Views are nicely captured and detailing is pretty awesome! Can't wait til it officially opens






Daft punk is playing in my house
National Art Gallery Design Entries

SMART design

Ho+Hou Architects

I like how they used the kelong stilts on the interior as it gives the National Art gallery an added layer of meaning (outside ang-moh colonisation face, inside indigenous orang laut heart). The insertion also corresponds to the rythmic classical order of the existing building. My fave :D


Studio Milou

Most likely to be the final design. Don't think the structure relates well to context though their thoughts given into the program, spatial arrangements and play of light are fantastic



Too(2) radical designs!

Da fruit/ Nuclear reactor/ Bulbous onion-thing

The blob!/Random rendering

I think the experimental stuff are awesome but also at the same time, I think they are quite distasteful wrt conservation. Sorry if anything offends you, these are just my opinions.

Love the weathered texture of the buildings. Accidentally overexposed the shot too :D

The glass walkway of some convention hall. Air conditioning wasn't switched on... Could've been nearly 40 degress inside!

Vivo City
Yupp, still under construction, but the design is nothing to rave about (though the water features were a nice touch). The "beach" might become the next "Bugis junction fountain".

And yes, i was actually walking across the water.:D


Indelibrate or just plain cheesy?


This shot is called " Most shops weren't open". I'm curious about what 黑社会 is about though.

And for the last picture(and for comedic value), we have....

Toys can also look real with the help of photography and Photoshop. Quick snap cos i got bored. :)
No, actually its not. Its thinking about the female species every few seconds.



Ok, I kid. But look at this awesomely babelicious hottie. You won't believe it if I tell you its a toy, but it really is. (some insane customization was done to it though. not by me of course)

There you have it, a woman you can toy with! ;)
