Title: an update on pantablo
Post by: pantablo on September 11, 2007, 10:48:31 PM
because you know you can't get enough... :laugh:

this is the family (about 5 months ago). Little Leo is now 6 months old. Hugo decided to grow his hair long-now down to his shoulders...same for my wife, lol. me, growing more gray...

check my site to see what I've been working on these days while I stayed off the internet  O0

www.pma-architect.com
In particular, check the Private Residence I am currently working on, as well as the Yibaneh Synagogue (under Institutional). both current projects driving my staff crazy.
Check out the Biography section to see my staff and I (office has grown quite a bit)...


also, I go to the track once or twice a month. painted my track plastics in homage of the honda RC30.

Awesome pics. 

But, you mean there is life OFF the internet?  WHAT ? ! ? !  ?! ?

Congrats on the work and family successes.  I have used your pages more than once to upgrade or repair things -- thanks for that, too!

Pablo- Family looks great, kids growing up fast as hell!
Bike looks awesome, I think that was a great choice on the RC-30 Color Scheme I always liked the Retro-Scheme on the new VFR.
Work stuff looks awesome, almost makes me want to go back and finish my last 2 years of Arch... ... Almost. Me hate studio & Juries.

No pics of the new G-35 too? Was it too much jealousy to be imposing on us?

Dear Pablo,

Looks like business, family, and toys are all booming! 14K sq ft residence? I could have the closet of my dreams!  :cheers:

So...is your wife ready to try for a little girl now?  ;)

The eldest boy should just about be old enough to do it.

The in-laws live just around the corner, they're always good on short notice  :thumb:

and a home liek that pblo and you were lookin for a place to park your bike? ( didnt i see a garage in that pic?) and long houses, sheesh mine is around 140ft long by about 20-30 wide.  :mad: ( in teh midst of repainting it)
Title: Re: an update on pantablo
Post by: pantablo on September 12, 2007, 08:55:47 PM
my clients have lots more money than I. I finally rented a garage for the bike, only because I needed the space in my office for more staff (used to keep the bike in the office).

Yama-the CLOSET alone is 95 ft x 8ft wide...the whole house is 95ft x 72ft, with a big courtyard in the middle...well, you can see it on my website...

Post by: yamahonkawazuki on September 12, 2007, 09:20:16 PM
i know, i remember that posting, what i was curious about is, could you not keep the bike at or on the property? ( thats what i was wondering), btw THATS a huge a$$ closet :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:

Pablo, that's great.  I see you didn't succumb to a minivan.  The XC90 is very sweet.  After "surprise, we're having number three.." I ran out and bought an Odyssey.  The bike looks awesome too with the newly painted skins mounted. 

Best wishes to you and your family.

no, couldnt do it. My house, is actually a condo with a one car carport only.

this is where I parked my bike before the theft attempt.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v505/pantablo/122_2269.jpg)

then I moved it into my office space (different location, a storefront near downtown SM). No parking there either. Finally just rented a garage 6 blocks from home. Thats how I know about storage places not allowing cars/motos, etc...

thanks, to you too!
We love the xc90. Its now my official trackday tow vehicle, intead of the G35... I dont think I could ever convince my wife to drive a minivan...at 3...yep, you need more transportation for sure. The xc90 has 3rd row seats so its enough for the 2+friend(s)...

Glad to hear you're doing well Pablo...  If I can ever afford a real house, I'll hire you to re-design it from the ground up.   :icon_mrgreen:


(BTW...  Don't you have better things to do than hang out here?)   :icon_razz:
