Lantern Making Contest at Unisun - my former employer

We will make this world beautiful

Rizal Philippines
December 22, 2015

I just learned that Unisun recently conducted a lantern making contest nation wide.  This is the lantern made by the Unisuners at Westpointe from recycled soft drinks bottles (Pepsi and Mt. Dew)  The contest was won by the Holy Gardens Polomolok in South Cotabato.  There was no price

                                         This looks cute and beautiful and creative

                                The SG guards the lantern while reading a tabloid

Rizal Philippines

Here are some more unusual topiary shapes seen in Bansun Oriental Mindoro.  Why cant we make similar beautiful shapes?

                                          Round topiary

                                    Conical.  Use the plants being used

                                         Wow

We need to plant more flowers; we need to buy some

Here are some flowers (probably they survive only in cool weather) and are expensive.  We can plant some of them in rainy season, have the irrigation working and plenty of TLC (by our gardeners)

These flowers are on display in front of Ayala Malls in Tagaytay city

Admire them: be wowed:

Entrance ideas that can be benchmarked; interesting entrance design -seen in Tagaytay, Nasugbu and Daang Hari

Here are some pictures that can inspire us give us great ideas how to to make magical, enchanting entrance design

                                    Twin Lakes commercial complex

                                 Handsome view of Taal Lake and Volcano

                                  Roman Greco design and tourists pose for pictures

                                     Tagaytay Royale entrance

                                   Splendido iconic symbol

                           Use of stone tiles and stone decor, entrance

                                     Eye catching design

                                    Part of Splendido hardscape use of large pots instead of plant box

                          Terraced cake like  landscaping;  all you need are large prune shears

                                Use of flaglets and bougainvilla

                             Use of bamboo trees, old tie rails and bricks

                                  Use of arch trellis

                                     Use of SS sign and great backdrop/stand

                        Use of topiary, paint, colored tiles and topiary

                            The yellow box was shaped angularly and looked nice.

                             Use of colored tiles and geometric gate,/fence

                             The only tool used was pruning shears and lot of hard work

                                          Ayala Mall signage in Tagaytay, plenty of grown up trees

        Use of stones with varying colors for contrast;  great idea for our uncompleted entrance pavement

                                          Seen at Villar mall in Daang Hari
