City library
The Beijing city library recently opened to the public, revealing sculpted ‘hills’ &
‘valleys’. The glass-clad building, which serves as the world’s largest climatized reading space, invites nature into the rooms & adds transparency to the enriched interior when viewed from the outside. The architecture reminds of Frank Lloyd Wright.
Oasia Hotel | Singapore
Singapore is so solarpunk. Half the city looks AI generated. The nation is working toward actualizing a sustainable future interconnected with nature & community.
This is in Tanjong Pagar where you can experience modern skyscrapers & traditional shop houses meet & blend in a perfect union.
Thian Hock Keng
Visited the temple, Thian Hock Keng this weekend. Turned out to be an architectural masterpiece. It plays an important roll in Singapore’s history from the 1800s. Details of the temple’s history are recorded on stone steles inside the Entrance Hall.
It was magnificent, colourful & interesting to observe the greetings & welcoming of visitors outside the entrance. The architectural wonder & the fragrant incense in the air made it to a pleasure to just stand back, take it in & observe it all.
