Rhonda SG It's a 'face' thing amongst the older generation. Hey, I'm SURE that it must be some relative who visited her during the CNY and kaypoh'd and asked her the question and then she started to worry about 'face' and then pressurised you. Ask her... I'm SURE some relative started this! But on second thoughts, better not ask... just let sleeping dogs lie!
sbst275 SG Must be lah Ahahahahah Well the 2nd time mum to be wasn't mad, she's just controlling her anger and stress level
av98m SG No, it isn't. That's the whole idea. Can actually induce disorientation, migraine, and even nausea and vomitting if using a very high powered light!
av98m SG Fuck the stupid asian preoccupation with "face". People have had their lives ruined, or even lost their lives, because of "face" *Spits on ground*
Rhonda SG Wah! A very interesting course! I hope that you can get in too! BTW, which school holds this course?

breytonhartge SG Modern balinese style... but it really depends as I also like the old english colonial bungalows... with a modern twist... but then as long as a house is well designed, I can appreciate it. My other favs are spanish villas. I also don't mind old gothic style architecture as seen in some of the worlds cathedrals... especially notre dame. Then there is a really cool architect by the name of Calatrava that has really sinuey swooping architecture that is very impressive. Also Zaha Hadid another architect who has really organic lines. Most notably the two architects which influenced my career path and design ideals are Frank Llyod Wright and Fay Jones. My wife's uncle in singapore is also an architect... Here are some images: Fallingwater by Frank LLyod Wright Taliesin West by Frank Llyod Wright Willts Residence by Frank Llyod Wright Thorncrown Chapel by Fay Jones Milwaukee Museum by Santiago Calatrava New Glass Factory Showroom by breytonhartge Neo Residence by breytonhartge
Rhonda SG Fallingwater by Frank Llyod Wright is very very famous. I've read features on Wright's architectural works in mags before. Whoa... your new house looks stunning!!! Very beautiful!
elindra SG Nice Then pray that we can buy a house in 5 yrs I like fusion...maybe somehow blend balinese and japanese styles together
Rhonda SG I flipped through an American mag once and saw this sprawling house with a staggered backyard deck on a cliff! Beautiful!! You can enjoy the breeze and watch the ocean from the deck... but hopefully, the wood never gets destroyed by termites otherwise, it's a long fall down!
breytonhartge SG errr... that is not my new house, it is a home I am designing for a client of mine here in Adelaide. Will be getting building approvals soon. Ok Elindra, will pray for you too!
breytonhartge SG definitely... when you are ready elindra... let me know, I would love to have a go...
