The House of Yagi by Suppose Design Office
“The House of Yagi is designed with the idea of an incomplete/complete form. Unlike other projects, the final stage of construction for this house was not aiming towards a finish stage, but to let the owner experience the sense of completion after living here. Interior space of the house is designed to maximize the interaction to its surrounding environment. Ground floor material remained the same as the original site, with a single tree standing in the centre to present a natural contrast with the surrounding area. Windows of the 1st storey are kept open without any window shield or glass and creates an interesting interaction with wind and rain. All these elements are to enhance the experience of unlimited lifestyle that you may potentially have in this house, and minimize the boundary. Through this different interpretation of connecting the exterior and interior space, new ways of living can be explored by the client.”

A Look Inside the New Salon by Surrender
As the world changes and times have shifted, few retailers have continually pushed the boundaries as Surrender has. On June 29 2013, the next chapter of Surrender brand’s chain of boutiques will open its doors inside the Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands. The interior of Salon by Surrender was styled after a 1700s Tea Salon, aiming for a space that feels cultured, unhurried, and indulgent. The repeated three-dimensional motif on the floor is inspired by a stud from a woman’s dress, that co-owner Earn Chen, came across in a showroom.
Keeping to Surrender’s style of mixing traditional and modern, high and low, Salon by Surrender will carry labels such as: Viktor & Rolf, AMBUSH, En Noir, Maison Martin Margiela, Christian Dada and others on the cultural forefront.
As more of the world shops online, Surrender continues to uphold the art of curated retail experience with the forward thinking of street culture.
The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands 2 Bayfront Avenue, #B2-232/ 233 Singapore 018972

Street League Skateboarding 2013: Kansas City
Street League recap –
Wow, the 9 Club got a lot more crowded in KC.
At the Nike SB World Tour’s first stop of the year in Kansas City, everything came together perfectly: the crowd was hyped; the world’s most elite skaters stepped up; the course was bananas; the webcast was the best of any live event; and the new SLS On Demand feature dropped, offering instant replays of every trick, every run, everything. In fact, with the advent of the incredible SLS On Demand feature, we can keep this recap almost as brief as Ishod Wair’s shorts. Well, not that short.
All kidding aside, if you love skateboarding, you gotta love the way the KC event unfolded. With an all-time display of 9 Club tricks, this was a banger of a contest.
That is, unless you’re Sean Malto. He was on his game all the way to the Final 8, and even threw on a fresh new jersey with his name across the back—repping the KC Chiefs in red and yellow. The crowd was ready to give their all for the hometown hero. And that’s when the wheels fell off—literally. Rolling to his first trick of his first run of the Finals, it looked like his kingpin broke. In fact, a loose kingpin nut came off his truck, sending his axle rolling the other way—simply a careless mistake setting up your board, and it can’t be blamed on anyone but himself. (Who else adjusts the tightness of your trucks?) In any case, Malto’s first run was clipped off before it got going. And when everyone else in the Finals nailed their first run, Malto was left behind the eight-ball. Malto’s show for the home crowd and shot at $100,000 bucks, all lost to one loose kingpin nut. That’s a tough, um, pill to swallow.
