Interior Design + Life Style

You want to put together a contemporary clean decorating design, learn the basic elements that combine to create a truly a room with clean simple lines.

For starters, casual living spaces have simple details, textured elements in fabrics and accessories, restful horizontal lines, soft upholstery, low-luster surfaces, and arrangements and symmetry based arrangements. Use a these style wherever you want to create a warm, inviting atmosphere.

Set in this post are some simple but valuable tips on choosing living room furniture that can work well in small or large living spaces.


Furniture layout and Sofa Sets
Select furniture that has international size and that would fit into most spaces and corners. It must also be easily movable and avoid custom built furniture, not only are they expensive , they are also inflexible. Most custom built furniture are built in and not movable. Unless you have a large living area or really good interior designer, planning your space, a custom built furniture is simply not recommended.

Furniture Color Scheme
Always select a pleasing neutral or earthly colours for the upholstered fabric finished or leather finished lounge sets.Pleasing colours like tan brown,beige, white or black for leather finished sofas are also compatible with most designs. This color may also be the “anchor” color for the interior design theme for the whole house or condo apartment. Make sure to choose good quality genuine leather fabric that are durable to withstand the stress wear and tear.

Accessorizing
One of the smartest and the simplest way to overhaul the look of your living room furniture is by accessorizing it your coffee table and by using removable slip covers.

You will be able to change the look of your sofa sets simply by changing the slip covers that is in tune with the season or theme. This will give living room a fresh seasonal look without any heavy investments. Be creative with your coffee table setting. Unique looking corner free standing lamps are also very versatile when you want to make some seasonal redecoration to your living rooms. Simply change the lampshade to suit your current theme.You can use interesting vases and some of the accessories.
Creating corners with exotic themes
Who says you can’t have a theme within a theme. You can convert some odd corners in your living area and make it completely different from the rest of the living areas. You can create a safari theme within a modern contemporary theme of your living room. If you have collected some paraphernalia or accessories during your holiday travels you could use them as accessories to create a theme within a theme. This corners are ideal conversation spot for two people over a cup of coffee or tea.



Finally

Be bold and try to experiment with different themes and colours and find what suits your personality. After all it is your personality which is reflected in the overall interior design of your living room.Don’t be afraid to experiment! Find what works best for you in your present situation. If you’ve selected items with versatility in mind, you’ll end up with an arrangement that’s just right!

Breakaway

Grew up in a small town
And when the rain would fall down
I'd just stare out my window
Dreaming of what could be
And if I'd end up happy
I would pray (I would pray)

Trying hard to reach out
But when I tried to speak out
Felt like no one could hear me
Wanted to belong here
But something felt so wrong here
So I prayed I could break away

[Chorus:]

I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes til' I touch the sky
And I'll make a wish
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway

Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget all the ones that I love
I'll take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway


Wanna feel the warm breeze
Sleep under a palm tree
Feel the rush of the ocean
Get onboard a fast train
Travel on a jet plane, far away (I will)
And breakaway
[Chorus]

Buildings with a hundred floors
Swinging around revolving doors
Maybe I don't know where they'll take me but
Gotta keep moving on, moving on
Fly away, breakaway

I'll spread my wings
And I'll learn how to fly
Though it's not easy to tell you goodbye
I gotta take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway

Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget the place I come from
I gotta take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway, breakaway, breakaway

生活,因設計而延續

很多時候居住的場景,可以改變很多心情,也可以產生很多生活的驚喜…
也許華麗也許簡約,卻總是必須有著自然與人性的好光景….
原來一個空間完美的織就,設計的雙手就是這樣的纖合得宜
.......................................................

最近迷上了室內設計
首個任務是要重新設計客廳..
最重要的目的是把動線改變..其次增加空間感..和增加收納效果


經過多天的努力, 看雜誌, 劃圖, 量度尺寸…
今天終於下了地櫃和收納櫃的訂單..
再要做的是選沙發
再要花點心思的去配合玻璃, 鏡面去放大空間 , 加入長線條導引視覺
當然要營造我喜愛的大自然感覺...
原來很不簡單, 很多東西要學...
..........................................................

有時候,一張自己會說話的照片,勝過許多文字著墨....
一個引人入勝的空間就能生動表達情感氛圍....
因為有愛的設計,沒有多餘也沒嫌少的偏執美感...
住進來,就是這樣愛回家!

給KAACP親愛的各位

不是見到 Queena 那篇"前路, 茫茫"不會激發我未寫cover letter 都要打這篇日誌..


參加KA programme開始…
就經歷了一個我人生最大Crisis ..
所堅信的不再是真實的…
所有的一切在瞬間被否定 ..
波譎的情緒把我吞噬….
使我窒息 …
所有一切我也沒有能力去在乎..
只覺得很累很累…
這同時也是我考cadet pilot 的開始

但…

你們默默地伴我走過了這很重要的五個月..
也許你們並不為意..
縱使我們不曾很了解大家...
但跟你們一起很簡單, 很開心...
有人不開心, 大家會知道的.. 也許不需要說出口..
有人開心的時候...在facebook總見到大家第一時間 的
迷茫的時候, 也總有大家的支持 ... 一個SMS 也可以很窩心 ~
Visit 到很累的時候也總有大家一起kai, 一起異相...
需要幫助的時候, 大家都義無反顧…


多謝kitty 的窩心短訊, 其實我每一次都好感動..
多謝 at the start of the slection, David 常常關心我的進度和心情..
多謝 Jacky , Andy 陪我睇英格蘭對德國..
多謝 keith 教我影相
多謝 呀珍組織打牌:P
多謝 Quinton ,Ken provide material 俾我..
多謝 Alice , Maggie, Jacklyn 令我上英文堂不至睡着, 每一個星期六見到你們都會好開心…
多謝 John , Bryan 這一對..好好笑
多謝 Connie, 沒有你..不會順利完成所有事 , 多謝你前幾日 send 封email俾我既 .. 其實我極開心..
多謝 Queena 曾經說” let us be the 5th,6th,7th and 8th female KA pilots “其實對我來說是很大的motivation …多謝你也喜歡行山,去旅行..使我可以狂 share ..

很喜歡你們每一個…
是你們默默的給了我很多很多很多的支持...
不然不可能可以自信的走得那麼遠..
所以迷茫的不要迷茫了..
沒有信心的就重拾信心吧..
常常未ready 的就立即去做吧…
其實我又有那一刻ready 去過一關又一關??
We think too much and feel so little ..
”當你為自己的夢想奮鬥的時候, 全宇宙的力量就會來幫你”
…這是我深信的, 也一直體驗到的
…當你身在其中, 你自然會盡全力..
… 一關又一關….會一一的克服..

…跌倒的時候..
…你要很感恩…告訴自己…這個歷練使你更了解自己的不足.. 使你更好的裝備自己...
…使你下一次可以自信告訴自己” I am ready”
“我現在ready 去坐上 right hand seat 這個位置”…. “我現在是可以去肩起所有的使命和責任”…

有人的facebook曾經寫過”夢想不能向現實低頭”…怎麼不見了??
希望可以常常見到充滿正能量的大家:)

很感動的一個大結局

淚可以流下...
因為這代表珍惜..

一個人可以很容易感動...
但也要懂得收放自如..
愛是傅大的
愛是持久忍耐..又有恩慈
愛是讓對方自由地飛翔..

路是要腳踏實地..
一步一步的走下去...
past means nothing
present means nothing
future means nothing
What matter is " this moment"

無止橋@四川馬鞍橋村

8月5日-8月12日

這是一點背景…

二零零八年一次地震,為四川涼山州南端偏遠的馬鞍橋村造成了嚴重的破壞。無止橋在零八年起已發動大學團隊,開展了一個村莊重建示範項目,為協助村民修橋,重建環保農房及建設村民活動中心。 今年暑假,在8月5日至12日期間,協助村民建設村莊的社區設施,為災後重建出一分力…


一向很想到內地做義工...也是這暑假的計劃之一..
是次無止橋項目卻比我想像中辛苦..
回憶很多, 一點一滴 …



還記得….

第一次飛機delay
入住豪華酒店
坐內陸機..
坐了六小時的巴士..
到中國的農村..
食川村菜..
睡草蓆
搬石頭..
插沙 (這是睡前也憶起的畫面)
到村民家..
那十七歲男孩的笑臉..
可愛的師傅..
語言不通但…傾得很高興的每一個晚上
洗澡時全村停電..
到井打井水洗澡
熱情的村民
可愛的小孩
手拉手
很累的玩拋手巾
非常可樂
娃哈哈
無限蒼蠅
坐車後全身是泥沙(比工作閎還要多呢)
第一次坐內地的火車
第一次內地night train
在車上跟乘客傾起了涼山火把節(旅程中第一個認識的外國人)
銀河
從朋友上對愛的定義得到很多的反思想
每一個笑臉
臉上抹不完的泥沙
一天洗了五次頭
"好吧, 好吧"
可愛的朋友仔

人是最能影響人..

沒有計劃的旅途, 往往出人意表, 收穫很多..

不用問每一刻自己學到什麼..

因為每一個人與人的邂逅也是奇蹟..

每一個相遇.. 只要用心的感受, 真心的分享, 開放的聆聽, 細心的觀察 ….

你會發現你已經得到很多..

因為這個世界很大...真的很大…
