    wah, maus 1 and 2 are so heartbreaking. i read them back in the day and it still haunts me. spiegelman couldn't maintain his standard after maus. i now go for robert kirkman and brian michael bendis. hollywood in a comic, but with a lot more depth and less on the angst.

    good for you to put in local flavour, but i always feel thasome of these architects/designers don't necessarily

    respect the heritage of the building. they rip the guts out

    and what remains is the shell. fine and good for some, but

    its a good piece of history lost. i've advised timothyng27 to

    look through some old pictures from the national archives

    to get some ideas. since your apt is at old airport road

    here're some links i found which may inspire you:

    Thanks for the link, rottenramone. I share your perspective. I think some owners like the privilege of living in a shophouse but lack the respect of history and just try to forcibly blend the new with the old.

    Peter saville is genius no? The unknown pleasures cover is nothing less than iconic. Yes am a Ramones fan amongst everything else.

    The sheer genius that is Peter Saville is truly unbelievable. I think there was an exhibition in London recently on his designs? My wife (aka mummymantras) and I bought two Joy Division posters in UK. I was hoping to locate a flypost-size New Order Substance poster but alas... Anyway, we are excited about the propsect of putting these to enliven our new house.

    PS - As regards Ramones, rockaway beach has to be their best...
