Batanes: Ivatan architecture





 Visit Batanes while its distinct beauty, culture and people still remain in the island, yes "modernization" is something we all have to face, and those who can afford it leave no stone unturned! I hope they can still preserve what's left, and more responsible people visit and invest in this island paradise. Here's one significant story as told in a tv documentary on the island, it featured a little store with no one manning it, open to anyone, a place you buy and leave your payment and you take your own change....all about pure honesty....that's something we cannot find anywhere!

Design folder: conscious living

Has it really been a year?
We started off Conscious Living by encouraging everyone to change our perspectives. Green living requires a fundamental shift in thinking and living, and resulting in reducing our consumption patterns.
Then, we showed how green spaces are really cool spaces built for the right climate. By using passive cooling techniques, we reduce the energy consumed to cool the space mechanically. Some techniques we illustrated were locating the proper orientation, maximization of openings , employing cross ventilation, taking into account the stack effect, installing sunshades at windows, and elevating the structure, venting the roof and having good insulation.
We also presented measurement systems that could assist us in evaluating how green our choices were. These were the carbon footprint and embodied energy. These two measured the byproducts and energy consumed of the lifecycle of materials and goods.
Moreover, we shared some water-saving tips for your home.
We capped off the year by summing up all our tips into one cool video for your viewing (and learning) pleasure.

Cetatuia Loft / Ion Popusoi + Bogdan Preda | ArchDaily:

"The building site is situated on Cetatuia Street, at the edge of the historical center of the town, with an amazing panoramic view over the mountains and historical center of the city.

This context demanded that the positive aspects of the site and the landscape are emphasized and exploited, while the space is used to its maximum potential.

I got a confession to make. I am food addict, over-indulgent! I crave for anything especially sweets, chocolates, cakes, ice cream, strawberries, halo-halo, leche flan, banana Q, breads, pasta, Nasi Goreng....tell me what you got in your fridge ;-D. Thank heavens for I got my mum's genes, I can gain and lose pounds that easy and quick. I am here to share with you my food recipe collection (almost forgotten in a corner of my room) and search for new, exciting recipes, meet good people, and discover more about the world of baking. I am no professional baker or chef (just a wanna-be for now) but we'll get there in time. In sha Allah. Afterall, DREAMS just got to start somewhere, and it starts right here, right now! Meantime enjoy this food journey with me among other stuff....amigos to the kitchen! [Thank you for visiting my blog,you're always welcome to come by! Feel free to dig deep into the posts, much treasures there. And leave your comments, I'd appreciate your words....] [P.S. Borrowed articles/photos can be deleted anytime, please advise.Thank you.]
