upcoming portfolio



this sem i'm designing a vertical campus. a bit rigid initially, but Im playing with the whole transparency issues. my fav material, ETFE (ethylene tetrafluoroethylene) is up for grabs again. this time the skin transpire the urban fabric of Johor Bahru, so the different depth imprints of the ETFE pieces allows transparency as well as a whole lot new lighting interplay experience. plz refer to Daniel Libeskind's extension for the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, a.k.a "the spiral". click here and here and here.

(not all comments about the extension is quite positive, but hey, im in for the imprint to transpire my surrounding context. im not resorting to something alien)

buildings should instigate emotions, remember?

im just past my plans n sections, working out on the 3d modelling. but my tutor requires another section to show the relation between plot 1 and plot 2 of our site sandwiched by Jalan segget.

not much images for grabs. will be as usual after the portfolio.

P/s.will probably use interface for my portfolio. guess i have to swap my crt for lcd eh?

DARK



dark

manifest my love
epitomes my thoughts
an abstract of my emotions
represents my life

the absolute color
of nothing
& everything
the start & the end

Eid wishes from a PRESIDENT






i got off late tis morning.
spend my prev shinanegans nite reading
architectural elements of Ipoh railway station

by 11am, we change the building
from railway station to parliament building

and I had to cycle all d way to Ibnu Sina Institute
at the corner of the world
I would be effing until now but for
good samaritans by anna & izaidy

but back from the rather boring seminar
(Practical in overseas ~ which is not alien at all to architechs)
I found out that the architech's still didint prepare themselves for
the open studio eid celebration

good grief

so i had to rush, huff, hush & puff
every single soul that can call themselves ARCHITECH
and we really wore it down the ever ticking clock

I owe it to them
Eureka's urban & DOTA players
noor
eddie
didi
farouk
nicky

because we pull everything in the thick & nick of time

so we got our first raya celebration
for the 4 years i have been here
and our 1st marhaban

from the pyro's studio, then oracle's, the strano's and last eureka's
chronicles have thesis crit so they didn't make it to deco their studio
but their cream puff were amazing~

& I am happy & truly proud
coz this event is succesful
not due to the committee
but to those who found space & time to join
in the eid celebration

what else joy can U give your president
than staying united
celebrating and dining
together and really have a good time

I don't care if I'm the best president or not
I don't want ALL architech to score 4 flat (gile ah.buat pe?!)
sleep in d studio guys~ I encourage it
(yet hide those sleeping stuff from the holy mighty noble "unit ruang")
be FREE
yet PROFESSIONAL
do Andrew Maynard or Ma Yansong

I juz want architech to be ARCHITECH
and tonite is what architech is all about
in certain aspects
though we will look how to improve from time to time

how we could express our creativity beyond the UTM & academic border
how our relationship with PAM can be mended
(hopeful that our Tranxxit contigent made up for Beyond Border's)
how we can discuss things other than archiweek & pregrad solely
and aware of critical issues such as our practical & measured drawing fees and costs


thanks architechs!~
for those who came n support the event
salam idulfitri,
forgive my sins & err
n be assured
yours has none in my heart
