Description
The State of ArchitecturePlease Mr, Ms and Mrs Architect,
Kindly take up your rights to freedom of expression.
Can’t you see that the small island is turning bland without your say in aesthetics?
Why are you stifling your own ideas and succumbing so easily to others?
Who says practicality is first?
Haven’t you heard that creativity is second to none?
Look around you,
Just how many built forms in this small country can you claim to be truly ours?
The count remains low but will you attempt to increase the number?
Please Mr, Ms and Mrs Architect,
Don’t hide behind the scenes anymore.
Reveal to us your place in the small but optimistic sea of local architecture.

Honestly, this one blew me away. The way you used the colors changing across it, but didn't let them take over the piece. Slightly building shapes in the background adds to the architecture theme too.

^___^ that's really true. By doing what is not risky, they just stick to being plain and not daring.

The problem is i'm frustrated, because i'm also falling into that trend. Which is why i kinda dread school here, the whole education system is encompassing that mentality. You see, because its so competitive here, you aren't given a second chance if you fail. So failing is never an option, so in another words, taking risks in not an option too.

Ah yeah that's true. Tsk... How can we deviate? >__< Seems like there's no choice.

Haha sometimes the fool make a greater head way than the wise you know, just by the sheer force of pure luck ^^
With experience, you won't be taking anymore risks

Hehe when you're young, you still have a lot more years to recover. It's hard to take risks when you're old and hardly appealing in other job offerings. >.<
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Very true.. But its the fear of never recovering you see ^^
I'm trying something outrageous (not risky but outrageous) in my bus-stop though
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
ahhh doing outrageous things will make you get attention...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
but i don't want to get attention ><

yep but that's the basic thing that is probably unlikely to go wrong. somethings are both right but one is righter?

Hehehe at least for the law it's wrong.

No, if you watch Boston Legal, the right can be wrong and vice versa ^^

Boston public? that's the show about some high school isn't it? the opening scene is always a yellow bus with the words Boston Public
Boston legal's better

ohohohoho sexual content... GAHAHA Lav, you think it's better since it has more sexual content! ... kidding.
with what you've said, I'll just hope I come across a channel which shows Boston Legal.
