Scan your e-ticket at the gate and you will be at the Orchid Garden. Work your way to the air-conditioned Penguin Cove to watch the King, Gentoo, Northern Rockhopper and Humboldt penguins flying underwater. In the area where the penguins are housed, the water and air temperature are maintained at a low of 8°C with special lighting that mimics the changes in day length in the different seasons - all to simulate the natural habitat of the penguins. Also remember to watch documentaries on the penguins at the Theater.

If you are not interested in the birds in tuxedo, maybe have a Penguin Bao (S$3.90+) to munch on. This is just your average tau sar bao (red bean paste bun) selling at marked up rate. If you have spare moolah, by all means buy one or a box of 4s to try.

OGN part 2; Child-friendly design = creating a safe and conducive environment.
Orchid Garden Nepal school has grown over the years. They naturally needed more thoughtful and functional spaces, enough for the children to thrive.
Our design strategy: On the newly introduced Upper Floor level we placed 3 functions: 1/ administration, 2/ volunteer rooms and 3/ classrooms for older students for whom climbing up the stairs wouldn't be hazardous. The ‘welcome area’ doubles up as a waiting space with display walls for art work/writings by the children, which the parents can enjoy while dropping off/picking up their kids.
We created two interconnecting courtyards; a small one adjacent to the Kindergarten, the large one for the bigger kids, who can have a blast at The Roll. With the central canteen, both courtyards are visually connected. Play, Eat and Repeat. As a break from the stereotypical learning, ‘Farm’ and ‘Jungle’ allow for outdoor learning and natural adventures in an urban context. The big question is what OGN will be able to do with this Architecture for All work!

Singapore Botanic Gardens
An unexpected return to Singapore, a decade after spending four days there in 2012 ADD LINK. The plan had been to transit through there on my way to Kathmandu, but a five hour delay flying from New Zealand to Singapore meant I would have missed my connecting flight, so Singapore Airlines rebooked me on the same flight a day later (and put me in a decent hotel near the airport and covered taxi and…

OGN part 1; Architecture for Everybody!
Bina Basnet's journey started as a teacher in an orphanage. Her observation: a lot of low-income families with day-to-day labor, took their small kids to their workplace (laborers, street vendors, domestic workers, etc. with some addicted to drugs) as a good and free daycare did not exist. She thought about what could change this as small children years are super important. How could they learn, play, discover? Bina set up Orchid Garden Nepal (OGN) in 2006 at Kalopul, Kathmandu, with the help of Van 't Sant family (Netherlands) and Dahal family ( Nepal).
While urbanization was ongoing and the owner of the land raised the courtyard level, serious floods started to happen in the last years. This is when they called us for help. We organized a design charrette with 4 teams: Team Happy, Peace, Polite and Team Netherlands. The best were developed further, keeping in mind the importance of spatial quality of the school as a learning environment. More soon!

Dec 30,2017 Went to the church I grew up in with gong gong to Thompson Chinese SDA Church. Participated in communion and foot washing and appreciated the sermon about casting all cares upon God. Then gong gong brought us to KOMAL VILAS, South Indian food I LOVEEE! Dosais were the best!!!! Then we went to the botanic garden orchid garden for $5 sdollars. Appreciated so many different types of orchids! Who knew! We did have to experience Singapore rain in the middle of that though but it was still fun. After that we went to shanice’s home to hang out a little. Her house has 4 stories plus a Rooftop! Never seen a home like that before. Then we went to keisuke ramen in 100am mall, known for their chicken broth. So yummy as I can have unlimited bean sprouts and eggs. :) after dinner we went to GARDEN BY THE BAY to see the supertree light show. Then headed to the marina sands for their water light show, which is kind of like world of color in California adventure. But still really cool because it’s on the bay with the city behind it. What a good sabbath day.
