Ready for the Next One

Okay, here we are just three days before the finish line!  After painting the walls and revarnishing the floor, we'll have everything finished by Monday.  The rooms need to be aired out for a couple of days and then the new occupants will be ready to move in.  This means we can also start on the next project. 

The next project requires a lot more changes and work so as recommended by my architecture classmate, I went to Soler to check out alternative suppliers to be able to compare costs with the ones in Home Depot and Wilcon.   

A bit of oasis, a breath of fresh air, a surprising incongruence came in the form of a Buddhist cafe right in the middle of the busy street in Binondo.  I walked in admiring the minimalist design, product lines, inspirational stickers and Chinese books. 

At the beginning of my walk, I was able to distinguish fixtures that could possibly be used in the future.  However, as I went to more and more stores, everything started to look the same.  My notebook was filled with prices anyway so it was time to go.
