Singapore Design Festival 2007

My first post in Blogspot is on an exhibition! This one is Singapore Design Festival 2007 that was held in December at VivoCity.
It featured models of "floating" structures from around the world. Basically these structures are built on stilts, so they seem like they are in midair. And they are real structures!
Some of the models were too far away to take though, and if I took from the other side, I would be taking their behinds.
I can't remember the names of the structures though, because the labels were too far away to see and the words were very small. I was not allowed to enter into the exhibition area.
The models were really amazing, I hope to visit the real ones some day.

This is an actual city floating in midair!
This one is actually a library in Italy.
See? I didn't lie. It reads "European Library of Information and Culture, Milano, Italy".
Sorry if some looks blurry, I took them with my phone camera.
Lastly, one of my favorite structures.
