Bamboo House in BALI.

To kick start the new semester, we are required to submit 2 presentation boards which includes all the related information and substantial study of a green building chosen by ourselves.

The selection of building is not something easy, at that time, I have some personal issue to deal with and yet I have to spare time to look for a building for this project. 
It was annoying when I found out that my selection was registered by someone else but at the will of destiny, I found this Bamboo house in Bali,
 a saviour.

Here comes my true test:
to gather all the information available on the Internet and decide the best way to present them into 2 A1 boards.

Meanwhile, a studio trip to Cameron Highlands to conduct a site visit for the next project. 
Anyway the best memory of this semester.
It has been more than a year since I last visited Cameron Highlands, not much changes in the environment, just that I am not the same guy anymore.

I remember the time we eat steamboat together, shopping in the night market, tasting the local foods and so on. 

The glittering market shines like night stars from distant,
people walked pass each other crossing shoulder,
strawberry, honey and colourful candy
and none shall be compared to her beauty.

I had a feeling of standing at the middle of no where, 
no assignments, no burdens, no past, no future, just present.
But it was not true.
Life goes not, 
reality preys on us and I have no chance at all. 

That I know, very clearly when I crossed Penang Bridge.
Right passed the demarcation line.

Hi Penang! You win.

Resuming the studio work, sleep less for a few days and here comes the end products.
