Love this design – what a fantastic idea for a rainy winter day in Sydney! where is it going to be sold?
cute concept… like this ^^
This web is very interesting, however, in every post, there is always the negative comment from a frustrated beeing, that is unable to bring a constructive criticism. Who do you think you are “P” to be so rude?. Why dont you show your work and we will evaluate if you do such gret things that you might believe you are above all human beeings. If you do not like what you see, go to another post but respect the work from other people. If you have something interesting to say, go ahead, otherwise, you better shutt up.
That is what can be called a happy idea!
