Countinous cities 5
In the first paragraph, when Marco Polo described the city's entrance, it reminds me of the ancient times where kingdom or town are usually surrounded by thick and tall walls for safety purpose.
the exterior and the interior of the city has no big difference, maybe thats why he was unable to find it. even the people who lives there, all have different answer and perspective where is thier core space in the city.

Cities & the Dead 4
In this city, not a single soul can be seen. With no human movements or any type of movements, the city begins to fill with layers of dust. Buildings becomes dangerous rather than a safe place for an human being to stay under it. It becomes a city for the dead, a city that people buries their dead relatives to rest their after life. Visitors though that there are only life under the ground of this city.

Cities & Names 2
The description of the city of Leandra, makes me imagine that the city is filled with plants that are crawlers. They grow and crawl around the house of the citizens, even inside the house, families can spot them. Its a city where nature is lingered around the architecture of the city.

Antoni Gaudi
I was quite shocked how Antoni started his own design style. So distinct and unique at the same time, a design style that no one would think of it and really out of the box. He went all out to break the rules of architecture and also coming solutions out of it. I was also surprised that actually Antoni since young had illness that prevented him from moving normally and had to stay all long on bed.

Diegro Rivera
In his life, he was a man with many women. Getting married to one and having affairs with another. His last wife was Fida Kahlo, however during the marriage Rivera treated her badly causing her to draw scary looking paintings. In his book, he said " When I loved a woman, I wanted to hurt her the more I loved her; Frida was the most evident victim of this despicable character trait of mine." To me this sentence has really disturbed me, someone like him could actually come out meaningful mural.

Trading Cities. 5
Esmeralda is city, where there are many different routes to travel from one place to another. Allowing resident to never get bored of thier own streets but rather the streets reveals new things everytime they chose a different route to travel to the same place.
In singapore, like the new shopping center Ion, it also has also of routes inside that allow shoppers to chose different route to walk. This kind of spaital planning has lead Singporeans to feel lost when they are shopping. As we are used to those shopping centers that is always the same route to travel to one shop to the other and usually the shopping centers are deigned in a rectangle shaped.
