The island comes alive with designs!

It's the Singapore Design Festival! - Do you even know such a festival exists?



What commendable efforts from our govt to make Sg into such a lively place! We're gonna have F1 races, different festivals coming on here and there. Then the IRs will be up sooner than you can say "The ferry wheel copies London Eye!" (PS: It's called The Singapore Flyer, fyi. What a CREATIVE name!)

From 28 Nov to 8 Dec, this Design Festival is making the Fad people really excited. You must have seen the outdoor advertising for it near Cine and Nafa. Very interesting. Or at certain bus stops like the one opposite Liat Tower, showing clips promoting events like this (http://www.utterubbish.com/index.html):



Don't be put off by the $199 fee. That's too atas for even the Fad people. It will not be necessary. Look to your right, $5 admission for a myriad of exhibitions at the City Hall Building. Quite worth your money.



A few events caught our fancy. Like Dream Girls for those who love fashion and/or good looking babes.




Or Journey through ART & ARCHITECTURE of North East Line MRT Stations. (The website wrote: "930AM - 1130AM and 2PM - 5PM (these are only recommended off-peak hours, as this is a self-discovery tour)"

Translation: You don't have to pay. Just tap your card and walk around the various stations as if you have nothing better to do. While at that, look out for suspicious characters who carry big bags and stuff them in dark corners....


And then, events such as this ONLINE EXHIBITION (translate: FREE!) at http://www.dandelion.idasia.org/
