it's been raining and it's been wet these past few days...kinda cozy however fairly annoying! for example today i was planning to go in to malmo to advance med Maria...& guess what? it's POURING...yet again..**sigh**
anyway moving on...the studio concept & vision i have for the studio in the aspect of management and views are based on very liberal and logic ideas. i am a strong believer in sustainable and toxic free environment...many years ago when i was leaving in Hong Kong someone said to me...."there is a price for everything...what's yours?' it's not the PRICE TAG....it's what u are willing to payf for it!! BIG DIFFERENCE therefore i always have that in mind when i shop.
i actually met & spoke to someone who thinks that carbon print is a propaganda...i was shocked and couldn't see him eye to eye after that. well life goes on..sadly. that bugs me! don't read what you want to know read what you want to learn.
i believe in locality (near produce) and sustainable lifestyle and 0 carbon print as possible. all choices for the studio is made with very concious & careful consideration of environmment, shelf live, energy used, wastage, pre & post disposal and of course the financial factor whether it's material choices, yoga mats, cleaning stuff, furnitures..everything!!
I was a producer before and my husband is a film director...we are in the business of making things looks good or creating the eye candy...i am exposed to too many things for too long that i must look into everything..this is how i look at things
- where to buy - who is the supplier, where are they made? etc etc
- use - what's the shelf life? then i can decide how sustainable is it? looks?
- how to get rid of it - how do dispose it? what do u use to dispose it?
most important thing is that i want the studio to fill with love, laughter and good health. I've lived in cities with more than 5Mil inhabitants...and i have narrowed down to 100,000 ..it's too quiet for me! 6 yrs ago we bought a house where nobody wants because it's at a junction....& i LOVE it, my nxt door neighbour is willing to pay if we could put some kind of wall...why live in town if don't want the noise? that is the question isn't it?
all in all sweden has very very high standard in building. my house is built in 1924...in Malaysia when we say this building is old it means 40-50yrs old...when i tell my family in M'sia my house is 80 something they freak out and ask if my house is haunted??
HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND
