  1. Making a grand entrance? Potted plants, please... Who stole my plants?
  2. Teaching a client in placing a Luopan below their Deity’s ....
  3. Opposite is true for these trees. They shed few leaves at any one time. Well behaved and can grow thin and tall. A good thing is that they look so unappealing to the termites.
  4. Umbrella type of tree... Actual Italian name is Bucida molinetti. During the dry Seasons, it sheds lots and lots of small leaves... Stepping on these leaves is like stepping on mini-fire crackers...as one can hear the grinding + popping sound as the leaves are crushed...
  5. Bamboo trees shed a lot of leaves especially during the drier seasons
  6. Thank you master Lee! Looking forward to meeting you to discuss, the charts are very thorough and sophisticated! Can we meet 9am on Monday? Will this be too early for you? ?
  7. Yeah I’ve done Joey Yapp’s one before but I feel you’re much more knowledgable.
  8. 1 1. The inquiry pertains to the type of pillar specification? 2. For instance, if the pillar is built solely by stacking bricks and mortar, one can only hope that a brick or bricks do not become dislodged and turn into projectiles, or that their fragments do not fly towards an unsuspecting "victim." 3. Therefore, common sense dictates that the pillar should ideally possess adequate stopping power... for standard vehicles? I recognize that it is not feasible to reinforce it sufficiently to endure the impact of a large truck, etc... 4. Additionally, one must consider what lies behind the pillar. If an innocent toddler inadvertently cycles behind it, etc... etc... "Gone with the... W....?" Touchwood. 5. Naturally, this scenario might represent perhaps a 1 in 10 million chance? Hmm... I am uncertain... At least, as far as I know, there have been no further reports of the aforementioned uneventful incident involving Toyota missiles... (as referenced in the previous discussion). P.S. In Singapore, at traffic light intersections, there are four bollards designed to prevent normal vehicles from passing. Recently, a Ferrari or a supercar collided but was halted by a bollard positioned between the two directional traffic lights. Bus stops also feature a narrower row of bollards. Meanwhile, at bus terminals, the bollard(s) are intended to stop a bus. Here, it depends on calculated risks... and thus specifications are designed to mitigate concerns on average.
  9. Then following traditional practises, for peace-of-mind the ba gua mirror can be valid in this case given your above clarifications.
  10. Blocks such as 186 have balconies installed with sound proofing properties. As one of the main culprit is the balcony ceiling reflecting noise especially from MRT tracks into the home. Further good news is that new generation trains are less noisy. Next time if one sees this: do understand that it is meant to reduce/absorb the magnified noise bouncing onto the balcony ceiling this magnifying the traffic noise. This these ceilings are not only for decorative purposes but for the above mentioned purposes. A completely flat surface echos sounds that travel in a straight line. From now onwards, the government placed a restriction of every unit with a maximum of 15% balconies to total unit floor area. In addition, some development comes with thicker noise reduction glass panels. Some high end one comes with dual ply glass panels.
  11. Someday.. someone may hurt themselves, here. Residents should ask the MA to place the distinctive yellow stripes. In fact, the developer should have considered the safety issues, first. It is the typical attitude of some planners is this “You stay there we don’t." I am not staying there, who cares! Just pay me for my work done! For example, for someone not familiar or first time situation: visually it is hard to discern or immediately tell that this is not exactly flat integration of the function area and the foot path! From the opposite end, again visually, the pathway seems level with the Barbecue area.. Developers have a responsibility to Ensure that their development are safe!
  12. The Nanyang Sacred Union was the first Confucius Association in Singapore. It was formed in 1930 just before the outbreak of world war two. Photos of the exterior facade
  13. Do a search for "Ba Gua mirror" in this forum and there are lots of case studies on it... Such as: and more...
  14. Case Study - Is the altar really facing the master bedroom windows? Please note that only if the altar directly faces your master bedroom window as shown as marking in red "X"; then this is considered the altar facing your master bedroom. But on many occasions some think that even if the altar faces markings A and B; this is also like what you meant. If so this is not a concern, here. Thus what you mentioned is not a "threat".
  15. A typical Ba Gua mirror to "deflect" a altar facing one's main door or windows: has both the 8 trigrams at it's outer perimeter + a mirror at it's centre. Traditionally, the mirror is flat. The rational is that a spirit usually is scared to see it's own image. Assuming the neighbour's is a Chinese deity or Buddha; then the most common recommended mirror is either A. Traditional or B. Modern as shown below:- Nowadays, the most popular sold is a variant of B. Modern. But the mirror is often conVEX or conCAVE. Even though there is also a flat mirror. Should I choose a Ba Gua mirror with a flat or conVEX mirror. In the past, it was a flat mirror. For the purpose of someone looking at it, will look at it's exact face. However, the conVEX can also serve this purpose. Although it's main purpose is to deflect sha qi.. such as a lamp post aimed towards a window etc... Just avoid buying a ba gua with a conCAVE mirror for this purpose of "defending" against an "altar placement". Reference:
  16. Dear Daniel, These are some considerations: 1. As you mentioned, it depends on the proximity of their altar. Close proximity is subjective. To some, it is close-by. To others, may be a comfortable distance even if "close-by". 2. Compass directions: the worst is IF your master bedroom and the altar at a NE (devil's gate) and SW (devil's backdoor alignment). If so, a bagua mirror with a convex mirror at the centre is okay to be hung above the bedroom window. 3. Type of GOD. Although many conservative FSMs (Feng Shui Masters) will always ask to place a ba gua mirror, even for all types of GODs. 4. In essence, majority of FSMs would often ask you to purchase a traditional Ba Gua Trigram at the outer ring and the convex mirror to deflect it. 5. Liberal FSMs may ask you to draw the day curtain permanently.
  17. Frankly, the three-spoke-star block design is pretty uncommon in Singapore. As compared to the four spoke block design and others...
  18. The Two Blocks at Aspen Heights resemble a three-star-spoke (Mercedes Benze logo) The development is up slope .... Stairs radiating outwards was a popular design feature of flats developed during the 1990's...
