Finally, I got to tender all the drawings I have been facing for the past 7 months. .

.

b u t, too bad…

.

I won’t have the chance to see the construction.. The feeling is so complicated. I’m happy yet disappointed about it because is like, you give birth to a baby H A P P Y G I L A ! !

.

b u t, too bad...

.

You will never able to see he grow up – S A D S I A L ~

I choose to stay after I have been made redundant during mid December because the drawings have to be tender by end of December, so I will able to observe the construction for few months…which wha I love about architecture…drawings become a solid structure~

.

b u t, too bad...

.

The client keep on changing her mind, sini tukar sikit, sana tukar sikit…postpone to January.

Never mind…I’m going back to Malaysia for Chinese New Year..So is ok! When I’m back, it will be tender~

.

b u t, too bad…

.

She changed her mind again.. sini tukar lagi, sana tukar lagi…jadi, apa lagi?

Postpone lagi lo~

.

The best thing is…she keep changing her mind, we keep amending the drawings…not only that, we will receive some essay very often complaining about two things which are this and that and chasing us to tender the drawings…

Best gila rite?!

Eh kawan…we pun nak tender…tapi u nak tukat…apa boleh buat lar?!

.

.

Never mind, finally got tender. Weeeee……

k a m p u n g . b o y

L . o . n . g . l . o . n . g . time ago, there was an ambitious handsome kampung boy name Ah Hou, living with his sexy mother in a small small kampung. One day, he decided to go city for a brighter future. That’s how the story begins…...


It is lunchtime. Ah Ho is getting ready to leave for the big big city of Kuala Lumpur. He is having a farewell meal with his mother. His mother is worried as he is her only son and he has never been out of the village… what will happen to him?? Will he be ok?






And now… we begin Ah Ho’s journey in KL…


Ah Ho arrives in Pudu bus station, bedraggled, tired, lonely…


… and totally lost.



He ask directions from a local…



Being the “kampung boy” that he is, Ah Ho doesn’t realise that this is an outdoor car park…



And therefore prepares to “rent” a car!!




Oh! What did he see?






Ah Ho is amazed by the sea of people in one of KL’s most busy intersections



He is not so sure about the function of zebra crossings..





Finally, he has arrived at his uncle’s house…






These are part of my site analysis presentation slides for my Design Studio 3 during 2006. Thanks to the - pak chi group- , especially the Ang Family. We have the idea when we yam char at mamak stall. Yeah~ exactly like how Monsters Inc created. Master ideas always appear during empty chat, like Ah Wong always say “Chin cai ngap, dong bei cap”. I will say it was one of my favorite presentations in Taylor’s College and we got good respond~ happy~ The details of the presentation (the site analysis) won’t be explain here because I’m sure you won’t be interested~

Serpentine Gallery Pavilion 2008

A short introduction of Serpentine Gallery. It is a modern and contemporary art gallery which located at the Kensington Gardens (a huge one!!), Hyde Park, in central London. Since the summer of 2000, a temporary pavilion will be construct which design by famous architect every year, for example, Zaha Hadid, Daniel Libeskind, Toyo Ito (one of my favourite architect) and etc. It is the world’s first and most ambitious architectural programmed of its kind, and is one of the most anticipated events in the international design calendar.




This year was Frank Gehry’s turn. Frank Gehry. Hmm… (one of an architect who kena sue~) haha.. Since studio 3, I was quite interested and impress with his work. He was the precedent study architect during the studio. Finally I was able to get to some of this work. Although this is not a building, but it was pretty amazing! It is lovely.. It is brilliant.. It is fantastic.. haha.. To be honest, I always felt that FG’s build unnecessary structure, but, I like it! Haha. I like the way he express his idea with his structure, the way he develop his ‘sketches’ into architecture which something Alex doing now. And also the way he challenge engineering.


The building was supported with four massive steel columns and is comprised of large timber planks



A complex net work of overlapping glass planes that create a dramatic, multi-dimensional space.




Frank Gehry said: 'The Pavilion is designed as a wooden timber structure that acts as an urban street running from the park to the existing Gallery. Inside the Pavilion, glass canopies are hung from the wooden structure to protect the interior from wind and rain and provide for shade during sunny days. The Pavilion is much like an amphitheatre, designed to serve as a place for live events, music, performance, discussion and debate. As the visitor walks through the Pavilion they have access to terraced seating on both sides of the urban street. In addition to the terraced seating there are two elevated seating pods, which are accessed around the perimeter of the Pavilion. These pods serve as visual markers enclosing the street and can be used as stages, private viewing platforms and dining areas.'


Part of my texts were taken from the website - Serpntine Gallery
Because I’m not till the standard to write everything by myself yet, but that day will be soon!!


Guess what I found on my way back ~ I know you won’t know… so, never mind, let me tell you…
