Badan Warisan...with lies~

its the History and Culture 3 site visit today...there was none previously for history subjects
never heard of this place...which an architecture student should..
its a non governmental org which preserves traditional heritage trails of buildings and etc.
i think they r rich la...coz can get this big piece of land somewhere nearby the Golden Triangle...
crazy...

reach there quite early...earlier than i thought
went to the Craft Complex of Malaysia, kinda cool...
saw a Songket finished kinda memo thingy..almost bought it...very very very nice~
went to their cafeteria to get a drink...quite cheap lor
1.20 for teh susu besar...in KL some more...but acc to gary, their food there is okay only


thts the house...which they moved from Kedah

owned by this Penghulu Abu Samad ...which he bought previously from Perak

and then move to Kedah..just the Rumah Ibu...slowly, he add in the other compartments..like playing LEGO

the transition space between the public area (for men) and the private area (for women)

nice patterning on their building/ house's carvings

main entrance to the public/community space

coz the owner is a chief of several villages

so...whenever he got businesses etc etc...the villagers will gather here...

also

there's a temporary lock-up in the community space (also the chief's office)

the facade of the main house (Rumah Ibu)

they call it the Rumah Ibu coz the measurement unit, is from the mother of the family

her arm length out-stretched straight (depa)

cool huh? women power~

thts their basement (open air)

store their atap roof, sometimes food, children's play area, nap area, a space to socialise among the family members and also the villagers

also...whenever the Sultan (traditional dictators) come and pay a visit

there's their 'carpark'...to park their elephants

cool huh?


p.s. SORRY MOM, THT I LIED TO U ABOUT TODAY'S TRIP, I DROVE THERE ACTUALLY...SORRY

1.28.2008

erm...something?


edited something for the site analysis presentation today...but it wasn't presented la...
coz i tot we r still in senior superatar's group, where as...i'm with uncle's side
so..cant blame anyone which made me look like, as if i didn't present anything



found out tht, the Petaling Jaya Trade Centre..is actually kinda cool~~
these daring people...they r so ambitious to have thing environmental friendly building
in fact...the outlook is cool also..besides being squarish~~


i thought tht the screen <- main feature of the trade centre design is just a selection of material, but i didnt expect it to be so conceptual..which the deisgn of woven cloth idea is inserted..
thts something new...rather than a metaphoric bamboo shoot in the middle of no where...dont you think so?

yet...its conceptual..
if its not further explained tht its idea originates from the pattern of woven clothes...
people might just think that the building surface treatment is another creative selection of material by the architect...agree?

these are some pictures taken during tht visit day to tht site...
i like the GLASS LANTERN LOBBY IDEA very much...
in the future...will it look like Philip Johnson's Glass House added with vent bricks?
i hope not...

1.24.2008

er...7th of Jan?

dude...its actually the 24th today (CNY soon <-- bloody hell drama award to the Oscar winner)

went out with Sarah huiying n Alice yeelu <-- prefer the pasar name...sounds closer
yamcha la...after audition to be the nex Sardines or the yr at the pasar malam

saw a lot of ppl tht didnt mean to see
discussed a lot of things tht doesnt meant to be discussed...particularly a friend's house (i wont call it a home coz its more like a prison to me)

can u imagine?
thts how...

imagine:
  1. stainless steel front gate approx 2m in height <- terrible ventilation
  2. overhang tent extends from 1st Floor's slab till the front gate <- totally concealed
  3. 3 stories house with Sierramas guard system <- located next to a pasar
  4. a spotlight installed above head level <- shoots u when u press the door bell
  5. 6 faces in the house (includes 1 tht i have been hated for 5 yrs) <- are not welcoming u

such a 'Welcoming' house...will u go?

even if u giv me rm20 angpau oso i wont go...rm50 maybe la...know why?

  1. whenever we go yamcha..no transport <-- need ppl to fetch when the subject had already have the driving license 16 months earlier than 1 do
  2. cannot click channel <- dumb boyfriend and girlfriend gossip among secondary friends (which i dont even recognise their face and will never notice if he/she is sitting beside me in a train)
  3. karma <- another story will be revealed soon
  4. un-Welcoming family members <- when u go into te house...there are 6 pcs of faces looking at you with a tagline beneath...GET THE HELL OUTTA MY HOUSE
  5. i simply hate the subject <- cannot meh?

thts sooo simple...

here's the fun thing...
