DESIGN FINISH MATERIALS ON HAND OF JESUS GROTTO

These images where from Kamay ni Hesus in Lucban, Quezon. These images are simple designs they have incorporated into the overall site. So simple and unique that when you see it and look at it carefully, you can see that it is both aesthetically beautiful and a gesture of appreciation. The image above is a pavement concrete with names and messages of people who have contributed in the making of Kamay ni Hesus. The pavement is surrounding the church with the pattern of a grid that makes it look like a tile slab.
The image below is another example on integrating appreciation on design. It is a plain white tile designed with hands of people who donated for the beautification of the site. The tile was use as a cladding for wall.

The images below are other example on how they beautify the park with simple and cheap materials. See images below on how to play with texture to provide continuity and accents to not let the tourists be bored with the vast surrounding.

SIDE THOUGHTS

  • Love isn’t a fairytale, it isn’t perfect, and it doesn’t always come easy. But it is something that we should hold on to for the rest of our lives, because it’s the only thing that’s worth fighting for.

  • Hero: someone we admire. Someone we look up to. Someone who gives us hope. Not a myth, or an icon, or a legend- someone solid, genuine and real. An ordinary person who does extraordinary things. A hero picks us up when we are down. Believes in us before we believe in ourselves. Inspires us to expand and embrace what’s possible. Helps us realize that we can be heroes, too - Kobi Yamada

  • Devil’s Pool - a small lagoon, enclosed by rocks, on the edge of one of the biggest, most beautiful waterfalls in the world, Victoria Falls. Set on Livingstone Island, at a height of 103 meters, Devil’s Pool is definitely one of the most surreal locations on Earth

  • Enchanted Well or Poco Encantado.  Located in Chapada Diamantina National Park in Brazil.  - This giant sunken pool is 120 feet deep and the water is so transparent the rocks and ancient tree trunks are visible on the bottom. Access to this pond is highly controlled for environmental protection of its rare and delicate ecosystem.

  • I don’t believe in fate or destiny. I believe in various degrees of hatred, paranoia, and abandonment. However much of that gets heaped upon you doesn’t matter - it’s only a matter of how much you can take and what it does to you — Henry Rollins
