Thoughts after the History of Art and Design 1

It's week 13 now, and it's nearly end of semester. What I learnt from this subject really make me get a lot of information that what's the importance of ancient arts, the legend artists and so on. We can learn more point of views for any kind of items that can be related with ancient cultures by our own words, without copying other people's thought. It's because copying cannot make the explanation in more originality and creative.

I really have fun for this subject and I hope I can continue to make my thought on this blog about the views that can be adapted and related with ancient cultures.

Thanks to Dr Ray and Ms Clare for good teaching. Thank you.

Visiting at singapore

Last weekends I went to Singapore to visit a toy event, and before I went there, I went to meet my friends that stay at Singapore for gathering. And then I also found there are some of the buildings have certain of ancient Greek and Egypt style inside although most of the buildings already reconstructed because of the redevelopment that made by Singapore government.

Chinatown is a famous place that most of the chinese culture were placed over there, no matter is from before until current time.

Take this office building as example. The rooftop is doing nearly like in pyramid that having some terms of Egypt pyramid look. And also, the building design having similar as Greek design that more organised. A very nice combinations of the 2 ancient cultures.

A normal restaurant also having some greek patterns at upper part of the kitsch although this kitsch is more likely as the chinese culture kitsch. The cultures are mixing together and make the things more unique.

Although it's a hotel, but the exterior part of the hotel still make the design keep as usual. The kitsch remaining as the design as Ancient Greek culture, make the building has something that "back to oldies".

The complex center can see this kind of design that also related with Ancient Greek. Although the building is restructured multiple times, it still have some sort of ancient style that is kept until now.

The rooftop of the shopping mall is having a very nice design for both ancient greek and egypt. It's like a symbol of sun, and also as the symbol of light. People at that time believe that the sun can lead them to the right way, and also can let them to do anything better. It's quite surprising that a shopping mall can have this kind of design by right now.

Suntec Convention Center is one of the biggest convention hall in Singapore. Almost every weekends, there's a lot of events, conventions, even roadshows also will be held at there. The design of the building at exterior area is having multiple of triangles. It's more likely looks like having multiple of pyramids at Egypt. And the shape all having same equal, looks very organised and nice.
