Home Office Design

This is my rendetion of a simple home office design. It is a simple but cozy design. a bit of monotone...but elegant. I just add the ionic column in the entrance to add accent..
The owner want it simple, so i see to it that all his requirements of the design will be meet. The gypsum ceiling and cornice will add the beauty. I personally didn't put lighting effects so that the owner can view it without the
effects of it, to view it as the natural lighting effect occurs.



The Swimming Pool Garden Design

My client want me to design for the swimming pool garden....
I put a cascading fountain at the back part of the pool..and around the pool i put flowering garden. To add accent on it i add the clay pot on the corner..


and for the shading purpose i put the wooden trellis design with a skylight on top of it.

This is my other option for the Pool garden... I have it all the pool area to be covered with sky light...

Causeway, Al Khobar, Saudi Arabia

Here i am again in this beautiful city destination of saudi arabia. The city of Al khobar, city of arabian beaches. I am not tired of featuring this beautiful city of saudi arabia. Me and my companions travel 5 hours from riyadh city to al khobar city.  It was a tiring travel but a memorable one.We went direct to the causeway, a boundary island between Kingdom of saudi arabia and Kingdom of Bahrain.

 The long Bridge that connects the boundary island or the causeway.
 The Causeway island on the far sight.

 We can see the country flags of Kingdom of Saudi Arabia on the right side and the flag of Kingdom of Bharain on the left side.
Me on the island with the viewing tower of saudi arabia on the background.

 The island was very secured that even fishing and swimming nearby the causeway was prohibited.
 The tower stands tall on the island. This tower has a restaurant and viewing area that you can see the entire island and the kingdoms of saudi arabia and bharain.

The beautiful sunset on the bay at the connecting bridge of the causeway.

Pinoy Life in Saudi Arabia,Kamsa-kamsa, Riyadh



       This Day i went to the place in saudi arabia which was called "Kamsa-Kamsa". literally means in english
fifty-fifty or 50/50. The place was like a freedom place for foriegn workers here in Saudi Arabia. There's a cottage for a group. Where you can rent a TV and Videoke for fun. There's also a billiard tables for you to play. And there's a food and drink for everyone.
     
      In Riyadh there's a lot of place you can roam around, You can check the malls around the city, Check the Hyper Panda malls, Othaim malls, Venecia Malls to name some. You can check also the Batha Center Trades. there in batha, there's Electronics Center, Pinoy market, and some other malls around the area. Or if you want some adventure, you can check the Kamsa-kamsa, located at Hair, Riyadh, the place where we went through. It's a very nice place. a lot of Filipino expats went there most of the time to hang around. Or you can check also the Red Sand, A place located at the far ends of Dirab, Riyadh. There also a lot of Filipino's went there to hang around. Just choose to ride on the four wheeled motor or ride on the camel for just 25 riyals per hour. And climb to the top most of the famous Red Sand of Saudi Arabia. It's a very enjoyable ride. That are just some of the adventure you can do while we are here in the kingdom of Saudi Arabia.    


On the other side of the place, there's a historic sight of old saudi houses made by mud. A ruins of the old house of the saudis before.


On the far side of the place there's a valley, they said before it was a river but now it is empty with water. You can only see the rocks and dates tree.
On the right side of the mountain, was a rock valley. I spotted some pakistanis and saudis seating on the hill.
Before i left the place, i took a shot on the sun set of the place. It was a beautiful sun set panorama.

The Worst Sandstorm in Saudi Arabia


I post this video link, because i remembered it, I think this was the worst sandstorm of saudi arabia...
I remember i was at our project site at sulimaniyah, riyadh, saudi arabia at that time..it was at early 9am..i heard voices from everywhere...shouting... and when i looked upon the sky, i saw a reddish brown cloud like moving faster going thru our area... immediately i shouted at my workers to go inside the room. After that, all the area of riyadh was in all dark. We could not see anymore the kingdom tower which is the tallest building in the kingdom of saudi arabia. We could only have vision of 300 meter visibility. It was very hard to drive going back to our apartment. So we just drive slowly coz' of very limited visibilty of the road. We almost have an accident at that time. And i heard that more are sick of asthma, nasal congestion ,hard to breath because of the situation at that time. And i am glad and thankful that me and my workers were not harmed at that time.It was my unforgettable experience of the worst sandstorm in saudi arabia...
