I’m Monique Tendencia, photographer and web designer from the Philippines.

I started this blog as a 365 Project in 2009, but I can never commit to something that requires too much of my attention. It now serves as home to my design inspirations, web designs, photographs, design resources, and some bits of my personal life. Think of it as a peek to all the crazy that goes happens in my head.

Casa del Pico by ÁBATON

Still totally in love with the idea of white, wood, and dark hues incorporated into interior design. Would love this more if the pool was indoor though.

If only the Philippines had a place like this – a place where you can enjoy nature and not feel cut off from civilization. Singapore, South Korea, where do I settle? More or less than 10 years to find out and I’m pretty excited <3

Genolier, Switzerland
A project by: LRS Architectes

Why I love this:

The trees! I can’t get enough of the surrounding trees. And that wonderful lawn that looks like a nice place to have a mini-picnic in.
It’s made of wood. I love wood so much, I still use it in some of my designs although wood is so 2008 in graphic design.
It’s a combination of wood, slate gray, and white. What’s not to love? A mix of neutral colors that was done tastefully.
(2nd photo) Space for cars! Yes, with an S!
There’s so much space and light to work with.
(5th photo) Indoor pool. If I can’t get a house by the beach, a house with a pool would suffice.

Sky Series by Eric Cahan

Such beautiful photographs of the sky captured by Eric Cahan. If these were offered as prints, I would gladly buy a couple and hang it on my wall.

[Top] Junie Cambridge Camera Bag - Php 2,600 (Shop)
[Bottom] R-BUN Camera Bag - Php 3,095 (Shop)

I’m constantly on the lookout for camera bags that don’t look too suspicious when traveling. I came across these two before I found the Dominique bag I have right now.

I like how they don’t look like camera bags at all, they’re just like your normal everyday school bag. I’m planning to get the Junie Cambridge in black soon. Or maybe I could get it as a gift, yeah? Hi Nikolo ;-)

Pegs for the shoot I was referring to in this post. So, if you were thinking of it as a regular outdoor shoot in some park, no, it’s not. It’s going to be in a studio. I like working with lights. If anyone wants to shoot with me, hit me up. Models and HMUA needed. I’ll pay for studio fee and food and whatever is needed.

Arowana by Sid Tendencia

I can only wish to be an excellent artist like my uncle. I really wish I had loads more time to spare so I can just paint for hours and hours.

Someday.
