Luxury in the Face of Adversity


A particularly beautiful concept to ease the pain that is conjured up by the brain when the thought of taking medication (and by extension being ill) arises.


It's lovely to see local designers coming up with simple, yet deeply impactful design like this. That being said, in my opinion, it would be nicer if the paper used to contain the medicine had a little bit of prints on them - colours can affect the mind's perceptions on things. Minimalism need not be bland and colourless.

Damien Hirst X Converse

I think this really looks amazing, but knowing Damien Hirst (we all remember his £50 million asking price for his work “For the Love of God”, a diamond encrusted skull), this will probably be really expensive. Its limited release of 400 pairs worldwide will do nothing to lower prices, given the economic theory of demand and supply.

Herringbone tweed, brown leather straps. Tres chic.

I wonder how much this will cost…

Gritty Modern

Simple, modern architecture that isn’t minimalistic or sterile. That’s hard to get these days. Juranda House by Apiacás Arquitetos.


I love the way the Eames lounger looks in the first image…

Suiting

I would love to have a navy blue suit… tres chic. Though one thing I’m not feeling in this picture is the ruffles at the seam lines. A tailored suit shouldn’t have this problem.

Oh that lovely black check blazer at Zara, so chic, yet too warm for our climate…

55 Blair Road

I don’t ever remember posting this on my blog before, but this Ong & Ong restoration project is by far one of my favourite pieces of architecture in Singapore. It is a restored Art Deco (personally I disagree with this, but this is according to the website) shop house that beautifully fuses modernism and Asian cultures together.

This is pretty close to my dream home…

Dream Apartment


 



Grey oak, luxe finishes. Totally my style.

Apartment designed by YLAB


Hmm I think I’ve been posting too many design pictures lately… I guess that’s cause design’s my form of escape from the craziness of the world around me. It’s a sweet bliss order – one that looks good too.


And apparently, its a small world after all… (random moment)

I simply love those shades of colours. Maybe the shades and cufflinks too (and that TDF sneakers). Inspiration lies everywhere.
