Design is a process of the heart.
We feel our way through design rather than think about design. Thereby we arrive at a more personal and organic space.
We are part of nature and "we borrow from nature the space upon which we build" (Tadao Ando). Designing spaces with respect for nature is the only way to keep the connection between our selves as space dwellers and the humanity within us.
We shape a space which in return shapes our living. Take that respect for humanity away, our space, no matter how embellished, becomes just a showcase instead of a dwelling.
Conversations together about spaces will always be wonderful.
ONLEWO - ENCHANTNG PATTERNS
I want to give a shout-out to the beautiful works my partner is doing at Onlewo. His passion for patterns is richly expressed in the story-filled fabric and wallpapers he makes.
His studio at 6A Shenton Way 01-48 OUE Downtown Gallery, is a cove of Singaporean crafts, exactly the type of shop we'd love to discover when we travel to places like Japan, Taiwan, etc. Drop by and take time to marvel at the colors.
