Visit To Point 92, Damansara Perdana

Visit To Point 92, Damansara Perdana – It was a site visit organized by Project Management lecturer – Ms Annette. Point 92 is a very cool building located at a new suburban township – Damansara Perdana and most of the buildings at there are still under-construction.

This Point 92 has a very cool exterior features, interesting arranged windows and a large void space at the center.

Unfortunately, it was not a nice visit, instead it was just plain chit-chatting, walking around the lobby, and even shouted by some lansi contractor at there ‘tak boleh! tak boleh! tak boleh’. He was shouting to us cause he thought we were going to take photos. At that time, lecturer has not arrived yet and he has no idea why we were there. Afterall, we were actually allowed to snap around. So why there’s nothing much to see?

Cause what’s cool is the exterior, the interior is only the lobby part only. Then that’s all. We were supposed to go to the void space – the balcony to check it out but then person-in-charge was busy, so… it’s bye bye!

By the way, I believe that Damansara Perdana will be very beautiful when all of the buildings are completed. It’s so cool leh! If you’ve got nothing to do, go there and see see then you will know what I mean.

Hong Kong: Old-School Bing Sutt Starbucks Coffee @ Central

Hong Kong: Old School Starbucks Coffee @ Central – One of the coolest place in Hong Kong to me is the old-school style designed Starbucks Coffee outlet located at Central area. I went there last year, and it was in one of my visiting list. What’s so special about this Starbucks Coffee outlet is the old-school Hong Kong coffee house design which local called it 冰室 (Bing Sutt).

This is a good blend of western coffee in to local Hong Kong culture. Although, the original Bing Sutt (Hong Kong’s kopitiam) design was not so dim, yet it brings out a warm, relaxing and mysterious feeling in the cafe.

It was full of people. It’s an attraction in my opinion and it has a unique Starbucks Coffee design. Mom went to shopping around Central area and me, dad and brother were enjoying a hot brew of coffee here.

It’s a little bit hard to spot out at Central area as you have to turn into a street and walk up a flight of stairs. Anyway, I’ve included a map below for your reference. =)

Food Kiosk Project Presentation Day!

Arvin, Jia Hui, Wesley and Me! My group member all the time.

Food Kiosk Project Presentation Day! – Finally, I can get a very short break now after working for so many weeks for the Food Kiosk design project for my Interior Design Studio subject. Just had my presentation yesterday, not perfect, but satisfied with what I’ve done. Although there’s critics from the lecturers, I take them as advice for improvement in future project and assignments.

Arvin, Jia Hui, Steve, Wesley and Rasyid.

Fana, Nita, Hanan, Mellysa.

The main thing that I’ve learned recently is 3D rendering. I love Google Sketchup + Vray, they are awesome. But then rendering 3D with Vray is a very hard thing because the setting is very hard to understand. It’s just like C++ programming and stuff. A lot of trial and error and trying and testing to make a perfect one. I am still learning and need to learn from the pro, perhaps take an external course (any idea where?). =D By the way, 3Dsmax sucks. Haha.

Moh and Ken.

The presentation was fun. Spent quite a lot for printing, but love what I’ve printed. I was nervous before my turn but it went fun during my turn to explain and present. Yay!

Ana, Zetty, Fahdran and Zhi Sheng.

MJ and Zhen.

Well, happy short 1-week holiday to my classmate, I am going to the most awesome place in Malaysia – Penang tomorrow, my home! And after the break, gonna get busy again with another project. Busy college life, and it’s fun.

One more thing, here’s… me! =D

Design Assignments, Projects = NO LIFE?

Design Assignments, Projects = NO LIFE? – I have been doing a lot of assignments lately, almost everyday that I am working on my school’s assignments which is related to Interior Design. Some people started saying me ‘NO LIFE’ that I everyday do, do and do, lacking entertainment and going out to relax. Hahaha, I also started to think that am I having a ‘NO LIFE’?

I guess many design school student, e.g. interior design, graphic design, or multimedia design, even architecture student have the same ‘assignments/projects all-the-time’ life as me, right? I think it’s only us, the creative student is the most busy one, I see business school’s students are so free.

But then, I kinda enjoy this kind of busy-ness (WEIRD). I just keep thinking that I have to finish the assignments fast so that I can enjoy to the fullest, I wonder is it correct or not? I am trying to find a balance point between work and play, but haven’t found it yet as I think that right now, my responsible, my task is to study well; only when I am working in the future, work and play must be balance.

Well, I’ve got to say, working on projects non-stop is my life right now, I just wanted to finish them fast and end it quickly. Mom is also getting frustrated that every time I tell her that I am doing project. Do you have a busy working, assignments life like me, and enjoying it?

Assignments, Projects = NO LIFE? By the way, I am back to Nick Chan Dot Net. So long no write, so much to write, so many thing to share. =D
