Home is Where You Are p2

First part here

Summary: Megatronus comes home after a fight to his new home in Iacon, excited to reunite with his conjunx.

Megatronus was in a foul mood when he stepped off the transport platform and into the streets of lower Iacon. His trip back to Kaon hadn’t gone exactly as planned. He’d won his fight, of course, but the joy of victory felt hollow when combined with the rest of his visit. Just as he had expected, many of his followers were ill at ease over his relocation to Iacon, and they had made their displeasure known. 

It mattered little to them when he explained the political reasons for the change. They only saw it as him running off with his higher caste lover to live in luxury while they lamented with their scraps.  They were wrong, of course, but that didn’t stop them from asking questions and doubting his sincerity as their leader. It was a pain in his aft, but one he couldn’t afford to ignore. 

Their hab wasn’t even luxurious, especially by Iaconian standards.  It was in the lower levels, in a section of the city reserved for manual laborers. Its proximity to the docks meant that there was little peace. Shipments came in all throughout the cycle with little regard for the resident's recharge needs, and the ground shook periodically when the largest of transport trucks took their goods from the docks into central Iacon. Combine that with the relatively high crime rate in the area, and he may as well have been in a mid-tier neighborhood in Kaon. In Iacon, this was a slum. 

The few saving graces it offered were an affordable price, fast access to the transport station and the size of the habs available. Orion had refused to budge on that last issue. Megatronus was used to shoving his large frame into spaces too small for him, but Orion insisted on finding something they could both fit comfortably in. 

Megatronus rounded the corner and ex-vented heavily as their hab came into view. He wanted to force the foulness of his mood aside before he made it home. The last thing he wanted was for Orion to ask him what was wrong, especially when all he wanted to do was kiss the mech senseless and forget about his woes. He could think about them all tomorrow, hopefully after a sensual reunion with his conjunx and a well deserved recharge in his own berth. 

The thought finally brought a smile to his face as he punched in their lock code. There was absolutely nothing that would ruin the rest of this evening for him. He stepped inside, eager to greet his little archivist. 

He only got two steps past the door before his pedes were suddenly out from under him. Megatronus didn’t even have time to brace himself. His helm crashed back against the door and his aft hit the ground with a soft thud, cushioned only by the sound proofed padded tiles that lined the floor of the whole hab. 

The gladiator groaned and gritted his dentae together as the stars assaulting his optical inputs subsided. His would-be assassin lie scrunched up at his pedes: the custom-made rug bearing his movement’s logo that Orion had surprised him with as a homecoming gift when they had first moved into this place. The same rug that had been torturing him ever since they had put it on the blasted floor. 

Megatronus snatched the offending hunk of imported fabric in a rage, ready to rip it into a million tiny pieces. He didn’t know why the rug had it out for him. No one else had any problems walking over it. It was only he who it seemed to target with its mythical ability to take a mech to the floor. 

The soft, purple and black mesh seemed so unassuming in his servos… so easy to shred for its continued insults to his pride. But that would upset Orion… He in-vented deeply, and squeezed the rug in a momentary death grip before tossing it to the side. It wasn’t worth upsetting Orion over and ruining his first night back home. 

After hauling himself back up onto his pedes, he spared a glance back at the door, which had a brand-new helm shaped dent marring its otherwise pristine surface. Slag... He’d have to call someone to fix that before Soundwave saw it. He’d never hear the end of it if his spymaster knew he was still tripping over that fibrous death trap. 

Megatronus forced the thoughts from his mind. His war with the rug would resume another cycle. The lights were dimmed in their living area, and Orion was nowhere to be seen. It was late, he probably hadn’t waited up, which was disappointing, but understandable. At least he hadn’t been up to hear him slamming his helm into the door. 

He snorted at the thought. It would have been embarrassing for Orion to see him taken down by a rug. This was a small blessing, no matter how disappointing it was that he wouldn’t be having the reunion he’d fantasized about. This was fine. It just meant that the next morning would be that much more fun. 

He flicked the lights completely off in the living room before he turned down the hallway. Recharge sounded nice, now that he thought about it. The door opened for him, automatically, and he couldn’t help the smile that spread on his face as his optics settled on Orion Pax draped over the desk at the window, deep in recharge. 

It took only a glance to see that he had dozed off while looking over one of Megatronus’ upcoming speeches. His Archivist was ever dutiful to him and their cause. He should have expected to find him here, like this. 

Love wasn’t something that Megatronus was great at expressing. He wasn’t an overtly affectionate mech, and when he was, it came off more as possessive. He also wasn’t all that great at verbally expressing his more tender emotions. Orion made it seem natural and easy. Orion could turn the normal task of editing into a declaration of devotion without uttering a single glyph.

The best that he could do was a clumsy attempt at gentleness as he scooped his Conjunx out of the chair and into his arms, grimacing as Orion’s helm clanked softly against his chassis, before slipping him as carefully as he could onto the berth. Orion didn’t budge from his slumber, and Megatronus huffed a quiet chuckle at that. No one recharged deeper than Orion Pax. 

He was lucky. He could admit that. Everyone knew Orion deserved better, including himself. Some were brave enough to even say so to his face. Even though Orion Pax insisted that he was exactly where he wanted to be, Megatronus found it difficult to shrug off his insecurities regarding the matter. 

He rounded the berth, and dimmed the lights to the lowest setting before finally allowing himself to lie down beside his beloved. He pressed a single kiss to the crest of Orion’s helm before tucking him against his frame, the way he knew Orion liked. Megatronus had missed him more than he would be able to say out loud and judging by how Orion had instinctually nuzzled into him, he’d missed him too. 

It was good to be home.

Taglist: @junhui-recs @drunk-on-dk @kayleeshinee @wonuhour @enhacolor

One spring afternoon, when the cherry blossoms were in full bloom and their sweet fragrance lingered in the air, Seokmin arrived at your office, early as usual, a habit that had been passed down to him from his mother. He was currently sitting in the waiting area, waiting for you to finish the previous meeting you were in, as he took in the decor. 

Everything in this area was about the silhouette, the off-white triangle marble table, that played off the triangle in the gold and beige abstract painting that was hanging on the wall opposite to him.

The only pop of color in this waiting area was a single blue orchid branch that was in an off-white cuboid-shaped vase sitting on the triangle table. 

Seokmin's office was probably the complete 180 of your space, with warm-colored walls, cozy rugs, and an excessive amount of indoor plants. 

The difference in office decor could be directly translated to the designs the two of you had put out in the world. 

Your designs were all about shapes and architecture, minimalist in color, while Seokmin was famous for his nature-inspired creations, full of vibrance and life.

This collaboration was far from comfortable for both of you, but both of your companies needed the exposure and the money. 

Sustainably sourcing materials while giving fair wages was not an easy task, especially for a newer brand like Seokmin's. But his top priority had been to keep his products affordable, which meant smaller quantities produced as there were very slim margins and they couldn't afford huge inventories. His designs had become a huge talking point in the resellers' market. His CFO, Mingyu, had told him to raise the prices, as both demand and quality of goods were on his side or his company would go under. Seokmin had agreed to this collaboration to justify the price rise (mostly to himself, as the world already knew how valuable his products were).

Your company, on the other hand, wanted the fame. You wanted to compete (and beat) the old luxury brands that mass-produced their boring products in sweatshops, sacrificed animals for "quality leather and fur", and had in general shady history. You'd fought tooth and nail over the years to get to where you were, but you needed a final big push to get to where these other brands were. Hence, this collaboration. You'd worked your ass off and you knew you deserved it.

Your secretary finally called out his name, and guided him to your office, but not before letting him know she was a huge fan of his work and was excited for him and her boss to collaborate. 

Seokmin had probably seen you once or twice in passing at fashion events but seeing you fully, sitting in your office chair with the back of a drawing pencil between your teeth and a single strand of hair escaping your bun and almost touching your lips was probably the most beautiful thing he'd ever seen. 

He was instantly reminded of the orchid back in the waiting area. 

Orchids epitomize luxury, strength, beauty, and love. Seokmin didn't really know about the love portion yet, but there was a magnetism about you and your aura...and he couldn't peel his eyes away. 

The meeting went surprisingly smoothly, as even though your expressions of art were polar opposites, your views on sustainability and your respect for each other's work and process instantly made you friends. It felt like you'd known Seokmin for years, talking to him felt so easy and natural. It also helped that he was (far too) easy on the eyes. 

The two of you also shared a new similarity now... unknowing to the other, you'd both become each other's muses. When your meeting was over, both of you went to your studio and came up with designs that reminded you of the other. You drew sharp lines, inspired by Seokmin's chiseled face and strong arms while imagining what it must be like to be held lovingly by him while running a hand across his jaw. He drew big, bold, beautiful petals, full of vivacity and panache that you encapsulated. To the world, you might've seemed cold and harsh, a shade of grey, but in his eyes (and heart), you were a beautiful burst of colors.

You both had, quite literally, become each other's object of affection.

...

The two of you had decided to visit together places that inspired the other to find inspiration and come up with designs together. 

You took him to the local library that was built on Roman-inspired architecture, with big beautiful columns and elegantly carved archways. He took a lot of pictures with his camera that was hung around his strong neck by a red strap. He looked effortlessly sexy in black jeans and a black t-shirt, and you had to practically stop yourself from jumping him when he correctly observed a carved flower in one of the archways that was the inspiration for one of your early collections.  

He took you to his favorite park and you sat on the ground underneath a banyan tree, hearing the chirping of birds, seeing flowers swing in the air in full spring bloom. You wore a purple dress and talked about your journey to reach where you were today, the challenges and hardships you overcame to become who you were, and Seokmin was yet again reminded of the beautiful orchid, your strength and beauty unparalleled.

...

You had your first fight a few weeks later, frustrated by the deadline and the lack of progress, you had screamed at him. And then he grew quiet. And did not talk to you for the rest of the week. It was as though the entire world had drained out of color. There was no joy in the world, the spring flowers in the park seemed duller, and the chirping of the birds seemed quieter as you sat down under the banyan tree again, hoping to find some solace, mustering up the courage to go and apologize to him.

Fate, on the other hand, had other plans. 

Seokmin had left his house for the park the first time that week after the fight, hoping to cheer himself up and watch some flowers. On his way, he saw a little girl with a bouquet full of orchids, and his heart hurt like a thousand needles had punctured it. As he entered the park, he saw you sitting under the tree.

He sat down next to you, and you cried into his shoulder, apologising profusely. He only gave you, what you could describe as, the brightest, sunniest smile you'd ever seen. Your heart skipped a beat. 

You wiped your face, held his with your hands, and gave him a big kiss on the cheek. His heart skipped two.

...

After that day, there was a sense of harmony between you two. It was as though all the design differences, creative blocks, every problem in the world had vanished away. Soon, it was the launch day.

There was a party, celebrating the launch of the collaboration and as soon as the collection dropped, it was out of stock.

It was a milestone, for both of you as your peers at the party congratulated you, out of admiration and envy. But nothing and nobody mattered because Seokmin was looking at you with so much joy and adoration that there, in front of all the eyes in the world, you kissed him. You were feeling vulnerable inside, exposing your weakness, your feelings in front of everyone. You had finally shown your color to the world.

Seokmin kissed you back immediately, his heart dissolving into a puddle, overwhelmed by his feelings and yours. He felt like he was floating in the sky. He'd been wanting to kiss you ever since he laid eyes on you.

Later that night, after countless congratulations and overwhelmingly positive reviews, Seokmin made love to you. Each touch was addicting, your skin was soft as petals, your perfume was sweet as nectar as he kissed and touched every inch of your body, remembering and repeating what gave you the most pleasure. You were soft, and warm, like a warm, warm blanket on a cold night, he never wanted this night to end. 

His orchid was in full bloom, her beauty and her strength was a luxury to see up close....and Seokmin was in love.

(On your first anniversary, you and Seokmin would go on to gift one another the designs you'd made after meeting each other for the first time.)

Well, Here Are Things You'll Never Know

The Gotham rogues gather at an estate for a party hosted by the mysterious Madame Nightshade.

Only, their host has no intention of being a good one.

Title taken from XS by Rina Sawayama

The sight of the estate's grand entrance was enough to make Penguin jealous. With its green, manicured lawns to the African blackwood doors featuring carved scenes of an epic battle to the statues that overlooked the fountains. It wasn't a stretch to imagine Gotham's newest rogue sat on a pile of gold.

And the interior was just as grand as the exterior. Scarlet velvet drapes hung above the windows and doorways. An expensive, intricately designed rug laid on the floor of foyer while a chandelier made of real crystals hung above.

"Looks like Brucey boy has competition." Penguin stuffed his cigar in his mouth, hoping to avoid any further jealousy.

Catwoman simply looked around, looking for anything she could grab and make off with once the party was over. What kind of person was the host? Who could afford for so many luxurious treasures to be in just one area?

"Cool, isn't it? I neva imagined walkin' into a place like this!" Harley Quinn took her spot alongside the feline thief. Poison Ivy was not too far behind.

Riddler kept his eyes on the chandelier, studying it. Surely the hostess wouldn't mind if it went missing. His sidekicks Query and Echo chatted amongst each other before noticing a familiar face from across the room.

"Eddie, don't look now, but Monochrome's here," Echo whispered.

"Mon lapine." Riddler was already giddy and the party hadn't even started.

But Riddler looked anyway. Sure enough, the mysteriously alluring Monochrome was there with her henchmen.

Her monochromatic hair was styled neatly, giving her a smooth, clean look. And how could he ignore the beautiful black and white dress she wore?

Two Face quietly stood off in the corner. He wasn't too happy about being called out of work to attend the event--even if the invitation did say attendance was mandatory. His plan was just to come, drink a bit, then go home. Simple and easy.

The clicking of heels caught the attention of the guests as a woman came out into the foyer. She had brown hair with sleek gray streaks and green eyes. Her dress was navy blue with matching gloves.

"Hello, everyone. My name is Penelope Richards," Penelope greeted. "Madame Nightshade has been expecting you. Please follow me."

Penelope led them to a large room lined with covered tables full of food on silver platters. On the walls were paintings that would rival those found in the Sistine Chapel. Crystal glasses of champagne and wine awaited them as well as a chocolate fountain. Servants dressed in pricey Italian suits stood off to the sides, ready to meet the demands of the guests.

The other rogues looked around in awe. Just when they thought they'd seen everything.

"Madame Nightshade will be with you shortly. For now, why not enjoy a drink?" Penelope snapped her fingers and servants brought around trays of drinks for everyone.

Riddler kept his eye on Monochrome. The suit he wore was much different from his usual style, but he hoped it would impress the always stylish art thief.

"You know she finds your staring weird."

"Two Face? I never thought you'd come here."

"Don't got much of a choice when the invitation says it's mandatory." Harvey took a sip of wine. Probably one of those super expensive brands no one knew the name of, but damn did it taste good. "What do you suppose this Madame Nightshade wants?"

"Must everything be a conspiracy? Why not it be a simple party?" Riddler turned his attention back on Monochrome, who was talking with Catwoman. "Must there be an ulterior motive to everything in that mind of yours, Harvey?"

Two Face rolled his eyes.

Slow heels walking down the steps caught turned everyone's heads. Three more women descended down a grand staircase.

On the left side was a woman with dark brown skin and curly black hair done into a neat bun. Her dress was purple with a diamond necklace.

On the right was a brown skinned woman wearing traditional South Asian wear. Her hair was black and flowed freely down her back.

In the middle was a woman wearing an elegant scarlet dress with a black fur shawl wrapped around her. Her hair was styled into neat curls. If her appearance told them anything, it was that she's the boss.

Onyx eyes looked down at the guests from the balcony of the staircase. They examined each and every person present; likely making mental note of who's who. Then, they shifted to Two Face.

When Two Face saw the woman's face, the glass in his hand was crushed. Why his days as a DA flashed before him, he couldn't say, but he knew that face the moment she came downstairs.

"You!" He yelled out in anger.

The woman stood tall, not flinching under the anger of his voice. "Hello, Harvey Dent. I'm not that surprised you still remember me."

"Course you're not, Marjorie!" Two Face growled. While the whispers of the others about how they possibly knew each other filled his ears, he blocked them out. Instead, he reached in his side and pulled out a gun.

"Tell the-"

Bang, bang!

Two Face screamed in pain as he felt two bullets enter his shoulder. But he had no time to nurse it as two more bullets entered his other shoulder. He writhed in pain on the ground.

In the woman's hand was a smoking gun. Despite the attempt on her life, her face remained stoic, cool, calm.

"Too slow yet again, Harvey." Frost laced her voice. So calm as though she hadn't just shot a man twice in both shoulders. After returning the gun to its place, she fully put her attention on the guests.

"Welcome. My name is Madame Nightshade." Madame Nightshade raised her head like she were a queen. "I'm glad you all accepted my invitation and graced my home with your presences. However, this is not a party."

Gasps and whispers emerged from the crowd.

Madame Nightshade made her way down to the floor, followed by the other two women. Her eyes shifted from side to side, taking in just who walked into her home. "You may not know me, but I know all of you. Or maybe you do, but do you really know me?"

"What do ya mean by that? What are you getting-" "Oswald Cobblepot. It's wise not to further increase your debt."

Penguin was taken aback by the newbie knowing his real name. She hadn't even turned around when she said it. But his shock quickly turned to anger.

"What debt do I owe you? You just got here!"

Penguin's eyes widened. "The Iceberg Lounge? What's that got to do with you?"

Nightshade's gaze stung the crime lord, forcing him into silence.

"Yours is one of the lengthier ones. But since you wish to test me, fine. Relinquish the Iceberg Lounge to its rightful owner. It's just enough to clear your tab."

The guests were speechless. Madame Nightshade built the Iceberg Lounge? Since when? First Two Face knowing who she was, now this. Just who was this woman?

"Who do you think financed its construction? The workers? The merchandise?" Each word was laced with venom. They sunk their teeth into Penguin, making him uncharacteristically quiet in minutes.

Nightshade went on. "It was my money that built your precious lounge, and I'll have no problem taking it from you--should you wish to see how far I'll go."

Nightshade picked up a glass of wine from a tray. While nonchalantly taking a sip, she looked out into the crowd.

"Come hither, Edward Nashton. "

"Your recent stunt as increased your debt to me. Meaning you owe me over six hundred million dollars." She looked down at him with contempt. It transported him back to his childhood. "Does someone like yourself even have access to the needed money?"

Riddler walked up to her. He did his best to hide the trembling in his body. Once near, he bowed best as he could.

"Y-yes, ma'am?"

"N-no, ma'am."

"Figured," Nightshade hummed. "Especially when I can see all the poor financial decisions you make everyday. How do you expect to have a woman like Mona Lisa Beauvais when all you can afford is Ramen and crackers?"

Monochrome froze when she heard her name. Becoming a target wasn't what she had anticipated for the night.

"For all your genius, money is your weakness. That's such irony." Nightshade continued her lecture.

"I-I can come up with the money by tomorrow afternoon." Riddler sweated. His heart pounded against his chest from feeling her venomous gaze on him. Riddler's knees had been threatening to fail him ever since she called him his birth name.

Once Riddler found his place back in the crowd, the spotlight was placed on Monochrome. Usually she'd be reveling in it, but it felt like she'd been put on trial. Even more embarrassing that she'd just been called Riddler's girlfriend.

Nightshade only hummed in response. While she didn't doubt his capabilities, she surely knew that the task was impossible.

"Of course you will. Return so that I can give my attention to your novia."

Just as she did to the other three rogues, Madame Nightshade set her gaze in on the art thief.

"Just because you're a widow and a mother doesn't mean I clear your tab. But, I do believe yours will be relatively easy to pay since your finances are more sound than your novio's." Nightshade set the glass on the table.

She then took the rest of the time exposing the other rogues and informing them of their debts to her. Honestly, it made her laugh how much these fools didn't know how she'd woven herself into the very fabric of Gotham. No one could separate their money from hers without risking death or financial ruin.

Suddenly, a noxious gas was released.

The air became so thick that it caused the guests to start coughing. Madame Nightshade, however, was perfectly fine. Like she'd experienced conditions like this before.

"Listen closely and listen well: I'm not just a boss in Gotham, I am Gotham. So every bank you steal money from is my money. Every hitman you hire is my hitman." She walked over to an unconscious Two Face and rolled over his body with her foot. Shaking her head in disappointment, she went back to the other rogues. "I own everyone in this city, including all of you and the Batman. I don't expect flattery or worship; but when you are in debt to me, I expect my due."

The ice in her voice sent shivers down the spines of many. She then walked towards a pair of doors leading to an outside balcony. The night air flowed through the room once open, giving the rogues some sense of relief.

"Take this as your first and final warning: Deceive me and you'll never get the chance to do it again."

[jaybarou]

I don't want to be negative on an utopia post so I started my own.

For reasons, I have lots of golf lore. And transforming golf courses is a good idea in teory, but I'm afraid these kind of posts paint this trasformation as a miracle that will solve the housing crisis and become the solution to climate change. It's not.

There is a lot, and I mean a LOT of nuance.

For example, there's a difference between a links golf course in Scotland (a kind of course more integrated in the native nature in an already humid country), and a regular golf course in a desertic area in Florida. Or a par-3 course? (the one least eco-damaging and the friendliest to kids, old people and people in general)

More nuance: is the golf course in the middle of the city or is it a 60 minute ride from anywhere livable? (Because transforming a green area in the middle if a cramped city into more housing will increase the summer heat in the area. And transforming an isolated area is a waste of resources.)

Even more nuance: is it a golf course in use or one of the 200 golf courses closed in the U.S. in 2017?

And a big big nuance: is it a PUBLIC golf course or a PRIVATE golf course? Those are incredibly different problems with incredibly different approaches.

Most golf courses in the USA are a privately owned business that rely on the kind of clients that make business on the club house. And like to bee seen spending 8 hours staight walking around It is lucrative! Look at all that water, and the land they can aford with the tiny number of people perusing it at a time. Because they are not selling in bulk, they are selling exclusivity snd selling an image of power and richness.

One way to close them down is to ruin golf's public image. But this year they survived being shamed for betraying an association of terroist victim's families. I'm not kidding. I wish I was, but the golf lovers are willing to shove a LOT under the rug.

The tipping point for golf gourse private owners is not going to be shame. It's going to be: "is more profitable to exploit people through rent indefinitely than to sell the image of richness?"

You may love direct action, but a few weeks ago a main event for senior players was trashed. Destroyed, the ground was unplayable, and all the golf superintendants of the region pitched in and in the morning it was perfect and they played.

However you choose to dismantle it you have to take into account that this is still owned by people who live off the image of affluence, it is their business model. So whatever they build instead of a golf course is not going to be affordable for you and me.

It is not going to solve the housing crisis. The neighborhoods surounding a golf course are of high value, so you are going to find a strong opposition of a small army of semi rich Karens and Kens of the area unless you find something that will keep the value of their property up.

And this is not a crazy "what if" story. I come with receips because this has already happened.

Successful story of repurposed golf course into a park. The land had to be clawed out of private hands.

“It always had been identified,” Moskos said. “It just took 100 years to secure the land.”

Metro Parks bought the property, which had been a golf course for more than 50 years, for $4 million in October 2016. The 200-acre property connects three parks — Cascade Valley, Gorge and Sand Run — and creates the district’s second-largest contiguous area, at just under 1,700 acres.

Another repurposed golf course in Kent, this time apartments. Public space in debt sold to private hands to build "luxury rental housing". You decide if that's a success.

Auburn-based Landmark Development Group and HAL Real Estate will construct the project on the former Riverbend par 3 golf course property along the Green River they bought from the city of Kent for $10.5 million. The City Council voted to sell the property to eliminate the Riverbend Golf Complex fund’s debt of about $4 million and spend about $6 million to improve the 18-hole course across the street from the former par 3 course.

[...]

Marquee on Meeker will provide Kent first-of-its-kind, luxury rental housing and retail via two new six-story, 120-unit buildings featuring 6,000 square feet of retail each, and 21, 12-unit, three-story walk-up residential buildings. Residential units will feature high-quality finishes.

The apartment complex will include lounges, decks, fitness centers and a large clubhouse including a modern kitchen, pool, spa, outdoor fireplace and barbecue areas.

Yet another story, this time in Palm Springs. Dead golf course turned into "exclusive neighborhoods".

Overseen by Freehold Communities, a national real estate developer, Miralon represents one of the country’s biggest bets on agriculture-oriented real estate. [...] Residents in these exclusive neighborhoods can tend community gardens, fill up baskets of fruits in orchards, and, in Kukui’ula in Hawaii, even harvest guava, papaya, and pineapple.Selling a more experiential and exclusive lifestyle—“whether it’s tranquil, artsy, eclectic or organic, more or less everything is right where you want it,” says Miralon’s website. [...]

Of course, maybe the most sustainable use of land may actually be dense high-rises, which support resource conservation, public transit, and more efficient land use. But that may be a bit too radical, not to mention expensive, for Palm Springs.[...]

Miralon actually had its start as a failed golf course development named Avalon that, like it’s partial owner, Lehman Brothers, was stopped short by the recession.

There have been other successful stories, like Japan turning a defunct golf course into a solar farm. And there have been faillure stories about HOAs refusing to let affordable housing be built.

What can you do?

I don't know, do you live near a defunct golf course? Is there a public golf course in your town that you could encourage to plant local flora? Are you involved in a HOA that's blocking the repurposing of a golf course? Can you educate someone making seed bombs into a more productive course of action? I don't know! Here is where you have to think for yourself, learn about your area of influence and influence it.

Just make sure when you rage against the machine that you are aimed at the right direction, make sure there is at least one possibility of realizing what you set yo do, and know what will happen later to save yourself the pikachu face.

Outdoor Rugs & Their Importance

Do you want to brighten up your outdoor patio or deck? Purchase an Outdoor Rug! They are available in an infinite variety of colours and patterns and will add class and style to your backyard or deck. An "indoor outdoor rug" is the best way to transform your backyard, and they are also very affordable.

An outdoor patio rug provides foot comfort as well as protection from deck splinters and patio concrete. Indoor/outdoor rugs, as they are commonly known, can be used both inside and outside. This is due to the use of more durable natural or synthetic fibres and weaves. Many are stain resistant and can be easily washed, many with just a hose! Many people use them in children's play areas, bedrooms, or any other location where your children live, play, or eat. Others will use them indoors in basements because they are resistant to mould, mildew, and other moisture.

Choosing the right outdoor rug

First, consider the appropriate rug size for your space. Outdoor rugs in the 8x10 size are very popular. Although a small rug will make an impression, a larger rug will be more practical in a seating or dining area.

But which design should you go with? How do you give your outdoor space a unique personality and style? There are countless designs and colours to choose from.

First, consider the surrounding colours, as well as the elements and overall style of your home. Consider how your area rug will impact the space in terms of contrasts and colour harmony, taking into account the colour of your existing floor and walls.

We believe that a rug should be the first piece of decor in any room because it has the most impact due to its large canvas. It can also bring the pieces together into a unified style. However, after you've chosen the other pieces, you can add an area rug. So, either start with a great-looking outdoor rug, or incorporate one after you've chosen outdoor furniture and "accessories" like potted plants, cushions, a string or more of white lights, table lanterns, or other decorative items.

Then look for a design that creates an exciting, liveable, and cosy appearance. Begin by looking for outdoor rug ideas on the internet. Scroll through popular Pinterest or Google Images pins, for example. Start at a great e-commerce store like LushAmbience.com and search for "Indoor/Outdoor Rugs" using the "Style" menu or filters. Better yet, go to one of your area's larger rug stores with a good selection, such as Lush Ambience. They provide a better selection and service than big-box stores or online retailers. They can also make changes to your rug and custom-cut a pad for it. Furthermore, there's nothing like seeing and feeling the rugs in person if you find one you like while browsing for ideas.

Outdoor Rug Fabric

Outdoor patio rugs are available in a variety of fabrics to withstand the elements, including rain, morning dew, and sunlight. Many are synthetic, while others are "grass" carpets, with many of those being outdoor braided carpets like jute rugs. Nonetheless, each will have varying weather resistance and mould and mildew resistance. Synthetics handle moisture better, whereas grass mats can develop mildew if not pre-treated.

The Benefits of Outdoor Rugs

How lovely would it be to spend more time outdoors in comfort and luxury as the days grow longer? Imagine hosting friends in your new outside space on a lovely night!

If you are fortunate enough to live close to us in South Carolina, USA, where we can actually utilise our outdoor space year-round, consider yourself very blessed. Whichever kind of outdoor space you have, it can be improved with a vibrant outdoor rug at a great price.

Hand Tufted Rugs Abu Dhabi: A Blend of Elegance and Craftsmanship

Hand tufted rugs offer a perfect balance between luxury and affordability, making them an excellent choice for homeowners and businesses alike in Abu Dhabi. These rugs are renowned for their artistic appeal, durability, and the exquisite texture they bring to any space. In this article, we will explore the benefits of hand tufted rugs, address common user queries, and explain how our platform offers high-quality hand tufted rugs tailored to your needs.

What are Hand Tufted Rugs?

Hand Tufted Rugs Abu Dhabi are made by skilled artisans using a specialized tufting tool. Unlike hand-knotted rugs, which take months to craft, hand tufted rugs can be produced more quickly without compromising on quality or design. A canvas is stretched over a frame, and the yarn is pushed through the fabric using the tufting tool to create intricate patterns. Once the rug is complete, the back is glued and a protective layer is added to ensure durability.

Benefits of Hand Tufted Rugs

1. Affordability

Hand tufted rugs are more affordable than hand-knotted rugs because they take less time to make, but they still offer a high-end, handcrafted look. If you're looking for a luxurious rug that fits your budget, hand tufted options are a great choice. In Abu Dhabi, where home décor often reflects elegance, these rugs offer a sophisticated aesthetic without breaking the bank.

2. Customization and Design Flexibility

One of the key advantages of hand tufted rugs is their versatility in design. Whether you're looking for bold patterns, intricate motifs, or minimalist styles, hand tufted rugs can be customized to match any interior décor. This flexibility is especially important in Abu Dhabi, where homes and commercial spaces often embrace a fusion of traditional and modern styles.

3. Durability

Hand tufted rugs are known for their durability. While they are not as long-lasting as hand-knotted rugs, they can still last several years with proper care. Their thick pile adds softness underfoot, making them ideal for living rooms, bedrooms, and other high-traffic areas. Their resilience ensures that they maintain their beauty even with regular use.

4. Quick Production Time

For those who need a high-quality rug in a short amount of time, hand tufted rugs are an ideal solution. Since they take significantly less time to produce than hand-knotted rugs, you can enjoy a custom-designed piece much faster without compromising on quality or aesthetic appeal.

Common Queries About Hand Tufted Rugs

1. How do hand tufted rugs differ from hand-knotted rugs?

Hand tufted rugs are created using a tufting tool to insert yarn into a canvas base, while hand-knotted rugs are made by individually tying knots onto the foundation of the rug. The tufting process is faster and less labor-intensive, which is why hand tufted rugs are more affordable. However, both types offer unique craftsmanship and artistic designs.

2. Are hand tufted rugs suitable for high-traffic areas?

Yes, hand tufted rugs are durable enough for high-traffic areas like living rooms and hallways. Their thick pile provides comfort and resilience. However, they may not last as long as hand-knotted rugs in extremely busy spaces, but with proper care, they can remain in excellent condition for many years.

3. Can hand tufted rugs be customized?

Absolutely! One of the main benefits of hand tufted rugs is their design flexibility. Whether you want a specific color scheme, size, or pattern, hand tufted rugs can be customized to meet your exact needs. This makes them a popular choice in Abu Dhabi, where personalized interior design is highly valued.

4. How should I clean and maintain my hand tufted rug?

To maintain the beauty of your hand tufted rug, regular vacuuming is essential to remove dust and debris. In case of spills, blot the area with a clean cloth and avoid rubbing, as this may damage the fibers. Professional cleaning is recommended every few years to extend the rug's life. Avoid placing heavy furniture on the rug for prolonged periods to prevent flattening the pile.

5. Are hand tufted rugs environmentally friendly?

Many hand tufted rugs are made using natural fibers such as wool, making them an eco-friendly option for your home. The production process itself is also less wasteful than machine-made rugs, as handcrafting ensures attention to detail and minimizes material waste.

Durable Materials: These rugs are typically made from durable, stain-resistant materials like polyester or cotton blends, designed to withstand frequent washing without losing their shape or color.

Variety of Styles: Machine washable rugs come in a wide range of designs, from bold and modern to neutral and traditional, ensuring you can find one that complements your home’s style.

Bedroom Rugs: Comfort and Warmth Underfoot

A bedroom rug can transform your sleeping space into a cozy and inviting retreat. Whether you prefer plush textures or simple, understated designs, a rug can add warmth and comfort underfoot, creating a soft landing when you wake up in the morning.

Comfort and Softness: Bedroom rugs made from materials like wool, shag, or high-pile fibers offer a luxurious feel, making your bedroom a more comfortable and relaxing space.

Size Matters: When choosing a bedroom rug, it’s important to consider the size. An 8x10 or 9x12 rug works well under a queen or king-sized bed, creating a balanced look that extends beyond the furniture and anchors the room.

Create a Relaxing Atmosphere: Neutral tones, soft pastels, or subtle patterns can help create a calming environment in your bedroom, while vibrant or bold designs can add a touch of personality and style.

Living Room Rugs: The Centerpiece of Your Space

The living room rug is often the focal point of your home’s main gathering area. Whether you’re entertaining guests or lounging with family, the right rug can tie the room together, provide warmth, and offer comfort underfoot.

Anchor the Room: A well-chosen living room rug anchors the space, helping to define seating areas and create a cohesive design. Opt for a large area rug that fits all your furniture to avoid making the space feel disjointed.

Durable and Stylish: For living rooms, durability is key. Look for rugs made from wool, synthetic blends, or natural fibers like jute, which can handle high foot traffic while still offering a stylish look.

Statement Pieces: Choose a rug with bold patterns or vibrant colors to make a statement, or go for neutral tones and subtle designs for a more understated, sophisticated feel.

Cheap Rugs: Affordable Style for Any Space

Decorating on a budget doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice style. Cheap rugs are a great way to update your space without breaking the bank, offering a variety of options that cater to different styles and room sizes.

Budget-Friendly Options: Many affordable rugs are made from synthetic materials like polypropylene or polyester, which are both durable and easy to clean. These rugs are perfect for areas that experience a lot of wear and tear, such as entryways, kitchens, or kids’ rooms.

Variety of Styles: Despite their lower price point, cheap rugs come in a wide range of designs, colors, and patterns. From modern geometric patterns to traditional Oriental-inspired designs, you can find an affordable rug that matches your home’s décor.

Perfect for High-Traffic Areas: Cheap rugs are ideal for spaces like hallways, kitchens, or playrooms, where you want the convenience of a stylish rug but don’t want to worry about potential damage or stains.

Choosing the Right Rug for Your Space

When selecting a rug for your home, consider both the practical aspects and your design preferences. Machine washable rugs are perfect for busy households, while bedroom rugs offer softness and comfort. Living room rugs act as a centerpiece for your main space, and cheap rugs are a budget-friendly way to update any room without compromising style.

Conclusion

From the practicality of machine washable rugs to the warmth and comfort of bedroom rugs, the right rug can dramatically enhance your home’s look and feel. Living room rugs add a sense of cohesion and style to your gathering space, while cheap rugs allow you to experiment with different designs and patterns without spending a fortune.

Exploring Everest: Everest Base Camp Trek, Budget Everest Base Camp Trek, and Everest Three Passes Trek

The Everest Base Camp Trek is one of the most iconic trekking routes in the world, offering adventurers the chance to experience the majesty of the Himalayas up close. The journey to Everest Base Camp (EBC), standing at an elevation of 5,364 meters, is a bucket-list trek for many travelers. However, the EBC trek is not the only way to explore the Everest region. For those seeking a more budget-friendly option or a more challenging adventure, the Budget Everest Base Camp Trek and the Everest Three Passes Trek are excellent alternatives.

The Classic Everest Base Camp Trek

The Everest Base Camp Trek is a 12-14 day journey through some of the most stunning landscapes in the Himalayas. Starting with a flight from Kathmandu to Lukla, the trek takes you through the lush forests of the Dudh Koshi Valley, past vibrant Sherpa villages like Namche Bazaar, and up to the rugged terrain of the Khumbu region. Along the way, trekkers are treated to panoramic views of towering peaks, including Everest, Lhotse, and Ama Dablam.

The trek is both physically demanding and rewarding, with highlights such as the famous Tengboche Monastery and the final approach to Everest Base Camp. The sense of achievement upon reaching EBC, with Mount Everest towering in the background, is unparalleled.

Budget Everest Base Camp Trek

For those seeking a more affordable option, the Budget Everest Base Camp Trek provides the same incredible experience but at a lower cost. The budget version of the trek is designed to cater to travelers who want to experience the beauty of the Everest region without breaking the bank. It typically involves basic accommodations in teahouses, fewer luxuries, and possibly smaller groups, but the essential trek and the stunning scenery remain the same.

This option is ideal for adventurers looking to save on costs without compromising on the experience. The trek follows the same route as the classic EBC trek, allowing trekkers to immerse themselves in the culture of the Sherpa people and enjoy the breathtaking views of the Himalayas.

Everest Three Passes Trek

For experienced trekkers seeking a more challenging route, the Everest Three Passes Trek offers a more intense and adventurous experience. This trek not only includes the Everest Base Camp but also takes trekkers over three high mountain passes—Kongma La (5,535m), Cho La (5,420m), and Renjo La (5,360m). The Everest Three Passes Trek provides a complete circuit of the Everest region, offering jaw-dropping views of Everest and other peaks from multiple angles.

This trek is more demanding, both in terms of physical endurance and time, but it offers a more off-the-beaten-path experience. The trek typically takes around 18-20 days and is perfect for those seeking a deeper connection with the remote areas of the Himalayas.

Conclusion

Whether you're taking the classic Everest Base Camp Trek, opting for the Budget Everest Base Camp Trek, or tackling the challenging Everest Three Passes Trek, the Everest region offers unparalleled trekking experiences. Each route offers unique rewards, from budget-friendly options to adrenaline-pumping adventures.
