G - BAZAAR

YA, it's me again, once again a big welcome to you for visiting Louis's blog. It's my great honour that someone else out there is willing to spend their precious time reading some nonsensical and almost self-centered blogger's word.. by that I mean myself.

Similar to the previous project, this was also one with long duration,  I'll try to write my best.

This project was special because it started with a site visit to Perlis, this was the first time I set my footprint on this smallest state in Malaysia, I like to call it the City of Glass  (玻璃之城)

Arrival at Padang Besar, Perlis.

I recalled exactly 24 hours ago, I was standing in front of the departure hall of Siem Reap Airport in Cambodia, gazing into the the interior garden with little botanical plant, even until now, the intensity of skylight captured by the glass openings shining so vivid as if it is just radiating from somewhere near me right now. I close my eyes slowly, something within my mind drives me right to the abyss of memory, but I have no idea where the light source is. 

And when I reopen my eyes, what I see is just fluorescent lamp of my desk.

     Padang Besar, a Malay name, which in English meaning " Great Field", located in the northern part of Perlis, it is a border town of Malaysia and Thailand. Nothing special but well, it was my first time in Perlis, so I guess it means something. 

     After spending about an hour in the local bazaar for building study, we went to the our site of this project to carry out site visit. As usual, we divided among ourselves into groups with different task and carry out our part independently. It was a funny and meaningful study indeed, because there were always these group of coursemates that have the capability in making things to get done in the very best possible way, to elaborate.. a really happy one. :) 

Kuala Perlis

 Simply breath-taking

Doing the conceptual sketches, still G-concept is adopted as a continuation from the last project, G-office.
Upon seeing my conceptual sketch, most of my friends' expression were like: NOT AGAIN!!!\
 Haha~
I have no tolerance with shambling design process anymore because ..

"Rain fall through the night

with me in the dorm

recalling happiness and tragedies

all the while

entrenching imaginary structures

spanning lengthy arms to embrace

something not less than imaginaries 

barely to be peer of a man like them

then I realized

I want to be nobody

other than me."

The Interim submission-
SHUT UP AND TAKE MY LIVER!!!

Been commented by lectures about the over floods of hybrid Architecture, she has a point and I tried to make alterations and adjustments to my design. 

Just that time runs too fast.

A week later....

4 A1 board, fully-colored. 

 I've done my best to give you nothing less than perfectness

Not ended yet!! Model making is on the way~

Sometimes I think I can't complete loh~
But I won't give up easily lah.
Cause my goddess revealed herself, telling me, in a soothing voice that is unfathomable by mere men :
"You can do it, just believe in yourself boy.
 then you'll be a man someday."

Add!cteD

Writing this at this moment, a page of fast words that may contain many errors,
nevertheless I'll be leaving soon in one hour
away from this lovely island,
away from my very good friends
away from those who care a lot bout' me
away from the one I will  surely miss a lot when I'm back into my origin later
It seems like everything back into square one but I know very well that inside of me it will never be the same anymore.
No matter where i go,
No matter what I'm going to design next time
No matter who i'm gong to meet i the future

And i....I will always miss you
