2nd Project - A Reception Table

This is an individual project so I had the chance to design on my own from the beginning till the end.
We all need to design a receptionist desk for our chosen company and the table should represent the company image. But the thing was, most of the companies we were looking for had a very simple design, even company like Microsoft and E-bay. I had problem with my design as mine are always rejected and if not, were being questioned. Till the very last minute I had no choice but to finalized my design.. Eventually, I had PETRONAS as the client so I designed a very simple desk, with a part that resemble layers of oil, and the oil running over the floor also.

Here's my design product



I messed up the presentation board, did the colouring, again, so badly. It looked so dull. My apology..

 Finally..


That's all for now

1st Project - The Old Charm of Georgetown

It was a group task and my group consist of me, new friend Hooi Min(Planning) and Izzudin (Archi). We had been asked to design a poster to show 7 interesting thing in Georgetown that reflect the old charm spirit, with Tourism Malaysia agency as the client.
All three of us has never worked together in the previous project so this is a new challenge. We went to the Georgetown site to take some pictures that we thought might help us in the design of the poster and took a walk around it. There are some places that provide good picture such as in the maps and the postcards that help our site visit. I immersed in the Khoo Kongsi's shopduring the visit when I saw so many fascinating items and souvenirs over there. Classical touch are everywhere..

Everynight we had to spend in the studio working on all the selection of places, arranging them, before actually drawing, tracing and painting them. I had myself in a roll as a handy women, just assist both Hooi Min and Izzudin. I did the drawing. Izzudin did the drawing and painting too. Hooi Min did the painting. I was really bad at painting that I told them earlier about it just to make sure that they won't regret asking me to do any colouring. During the colouring process, I actually coloured a part of the mosque but due to how contrast it was to Hooi Min colouring, I was told to go back early. Haha.. Sorry guys.
 But they are nice, really, they didn't really shove me away, just politely told me to go back and I'll did the finishes later on so I don't really mind.

and finally, this is the end product....
 only one picture leh.. sorry for that

THE SECOND SEMESTER

The Project in the Second Semester is here. More stories, and new experiences will be on the line.
For this Sem, I had to take both English and Bahasa subject to complete the units.

Fortunately, my schedule is as good as it can get, I had only one class in the morning on Wednesday, The Studio subject only in the morning, and the rest seem to be good too.
Anyway, hope this sem will be better than the first.

Project 8: Performance

We had our last project which is the Performance night yesterday and it went totally crazy. We had to do all the preparations the whole days and nights before, tiring really!



The architecture student represented Srivijaya Kingdom in the Lost Kingdom theme. The performance: We have the clapping and thousand hands Glow in the dark performance.
I didn't took part in the performance so I got the chance to watch my friends performed. and It was excellent! It went smoothly and what I like about it was the 1st part, 'tepuk-tepuk'. quite well executed and the sound was great, very very proud of them.

We won the biggest award of the night, The Best Performance and the Best Kingdom. SRIVIJAYA team immediately went hectic..

Picture when we received the award for the Best Kingdom, everybody went in front of the audiences

Overall, I think everybody did a great job, all my friends looking gorgeous and handsome.. :) It's our last gathering for design and non-design students and now when I think about it, I will missed all my friends so much. Especially the non-design courses. Most of my friend s undoubtedly are from other courses and they are very dear to me, had so much fun working with them so I don't want it to end here. Hope the ending is not there yet.
 
 
 Respect to everyone good luck in the exam guys
 
 
 
Project 8, the last project checked...



Project 7: EXHIBITION

We have only 3 days at the drum to finish our booth. so on Saturday, I couldn't attend the DRUM because I was competing in Festival of Light's Tanglong competition. But later, I joined the Archi, did somework and fixing my group L-shape chair just enough to be displayed.
 
I'm so glad my portrait was been displayed in the Exhibition. Something to be proud of, I guess.
Didn't take much pictures, thanks to the contributor of these pictures and well done everyone!

Project 6b: The Model Making of Amphitheatre Stage

Goodbye Langkawi and we all were back in Studio
 
The Enfold was our last project making in studio. We needed quite a long time doing the cutting and polishing all the timbers as we used tons of them. Everybody work together as a team but sometimes we did have problems and it's normal.
Being in studio, I can't help but overheard about other groups' stories and issues and I thought 'Thank God our group is not like them". Proud to be in Group 11
 
Studio session, mostly, my group do the working, chatting, and eating..mostly eating I guess. The flow is rather simple:
 
Work--> started chatting--> eat-->more chatting--> went back to work--> started chatting--> eat again
 
the flow went on and on and on until morning. And then we will start it all over again the next night, the same thing..
 
Sound a bit boring but what I found was I love being with my groupmates because we have a lot to share, we tried to get to know each other and we all can coop well regardless the races and religions. We are very talkative and most of us loves to make jokes so we enjoyed ourselves while working.

The reason why we ate too much; we actually had our own pantry.
Everyday some of us will brought the Gardenia bread (Bonanza pack of course), some planta and margarine, Nutella, Peanut Butter, and once Jam.. If we still felt hungry we got our riders Fajrul and Ammar to help buy extra food.. Team work!
Sometimes other groups will come to our pantry, just looking around (I didn't know their actual intention tho).. sometimes we share our food with them, only sometimes, don't mention it.. (Credit to models: Amira Nabila, Hanis)
 
In the end, our group effort paid off big time..
 
Earlier stages, we did the platform, Hanisah and Izzati is varnishing
 
 
Here's the product...

Here's Yangyang and Peixiu working on the stair. They did this for one whole night, well done!
 
 
Then we started attaching all the parts..
 
 
 
 
 
In the end, this is our amphitheatre stage, The Enfold

 Light's out in studio
 
 
 ID works, looking wonderful
 
Overall, I'm sure we all were satisfied with the result. Gonna miss GALAXY 11. But like the Enfold, GALAXY 11 will hold the past, the present and the future.. may our friendship last forever.
