Japanese architecture
Personally, I've never been to Japan, but it has been one of the places that I longed to go for a really long time. I love the variety in their culture, the uniqueness in their fashion, and the traditions they have kept well from the past. I appreciate the Asian architectural forms that appear in many Asian countries. Unfortunately, Korea had lost a lot of their most beautiful buildings and art forms during the war period.
celestial
I remember, when I was a kid I loved to count the stars at night times. I liked the mysteries hidden behind the universe and the limitlessness in space. The milky ways and constellations were always in my favor. From the colors of the celestial images to the new gaining information about the space never lose my interest
water reflections
One of my art teachers told me water reflections can be the hardest thing to paint well and bring the feeling in to the art piece. From that point on, I always take a close care to the art pieces, or the water reflection itself. I like looking at beautiful color scattering on the surface of the water. Especially in new york at night times, the reflections of lights coming from skyscrapers are overwhelmingly pretty.

More home furnishing
I found some more home furnishing items that I found really cool. The first stack of suitcase-drawer reminded me of the the stacked closet displayed at the MoMA. The suitcase-sofa from the following images would definitely go on my wish list - I would love to have a cute sofa like them, especially the sky blue suitcase-sofa with white cushions. The mink container-stool was also fun to look at. I thought the twist in turning the cap in to a seat of a stool was a smart design.

furnitures at west elm
I personally love to go in to furniture stores just to take a look at the stuff they have. One of the stores in my favor is west elm. They always have a lot of texture and surface designs to boost up the taste of home furnishing. For the next flat project, I am going to put some of my prints on to the furniture that I found fond of. It will be great if I can put them all together at the end and create a scenery of my styled-home.

I looked up some abstract paintings online and I really liked some of the paintings that I found. For the first and last images, I loved the blue color empowering the art work and the depth in piece from the variation of the hues of colors.The soft and fun feeling of the two pastel tone pieces, the second and third painting, were contrary to the two grotesque "blue" paintings. I was always fond of the water dropping feeling of oil paintings like it appears on the first and the fifth painting.
