Furniture Hunt

One of the Interior Designer's job [including trainees] are suppose to design/select the loose furnitures besides built-in fittings detailing works for a project, especially residential. I am currently assisting in the interior works of a residential project in PJ SS16, and just finished the proposal of the living room. [the few days back last week which I was hyped-thru-the week], yeah..thats why. =P

Anyway, the design direction that they apply is sort-of Brutalism + Raw-to-Materials + Simplicity + Functional..I just cant find 1 word to describe it, it seems to be a combination of everything :) yeah...very similar to the approach of the upcoming trade center

So...went furniture hunt today [in some places suggested by senior]

I thought its in the Bangsar Village 2, end up its in Bangsar Shopping Center [i thought its the same =P]

Last available set, walnut solids + leather backing
new arrivals, black n brown leather on s/s

At the Gardens, after I visited the Gudang Damansara. The Sales Rep from Gudang Damansara says that they keep different collection of furniture in 2 of their centers...[means diff stock @ diff place, diff time]

Last set available...

Of course, I asked Michelle about how-furniture-hunts-usually-works before I go la...4th Saturday, working until 1pm, and went lunch with Daphne before I head to Bangsar, the Maarof to be precise...

Before I went Furniture Hunting [instead of shopping], I actually googled, and found this

Didn't take any pics though...bcoz the Sales Rep said that she'll email me the pics with the price.
Designer furniture pieces...damn cool right?? I once felt that these stuffs only exists in the movies... =P I like the Red one...who volunteers to buy me a pair? I can settle with only 1 piece too!!

p.s never dream/think of hiring an interior designer to do your house if you dont have a 1mil. [preferably USD]
Its unreasonably hard to do with a tight budget.

Salley Gardens


Down by The Salley Gardens - Oconnell Maura

Down by the salley gardens my love and I did meet;
She passed the salley gardens
with her little snow-white feet.
She bid me take love easy, as the leaves grow on the tree;
But I, being young and foolish, with her would not agree.

In a field by the river
my love and I did stand,
And on my leaning shoulder
she laid her snow-white hand.
She bid me take life easy, as the grass grows on the weirs;
But I was young and foolish, and now am full of tears.

Posting this is not just meaningless
But it does add a lil' sense into the whole post
What i feel now, is rather beyond description
So...some songs and sentimental moments is all I need right at the moment
I guess, I think, I hope

Longer

Longer than there've been fishes in the ocean
Higher than any bird ever flew
Longer than there've been stars up in the heavens
I've been in love with you.

Stronger than any mountain cathedral
Truer than any tree ever grew
Deeper than any forest primeval
I am in love with you.

I'll bring fires in the winters
You'll send showers in the springs
We'll fly through the falls and summers
With love on our wings.

Through the years as the fire starts to mellow
Burning lines in the book of our lives
Though the binding cracks and the pages start to yellow
I'll be in love with you.

Longer than there've been fishes in the ocean
Higher than any bird ever flew
Longer than there've been stars up in the heavens
I've been in love with you
I am in love with you..

p.s couldnt sleep well these few days..miss u too much

Should I? Shouldn't I?

I probably have told Jasmynn about this...Yesterday, my senior told me tht I might need to tag along to the presentation of this bungalow project in Bangsar coz the studio head has another presentation running at the same time. So...i was quite kancheong la...[It means Nervous in Cantonese] about this First-Meet-Client-In-My-Lifetime-Career-Session :P It sounds odd, I know

Then..this morning, when I ask senior wad time he's leaving for the presentation [takut to mention myself] He say, big big big boss is going with studio head for the presentation..I'm abit disappointed la... [tot can go eye-open-kan myself mar] Anyway, have to rush-kan the presentation boards also, due today...So, didnt think much [the presentation is 4pm, studio head will need it before lunch]

Lunch time, only me and studio head going [the ID dept peeps have things to rush also, feeling bad about tht coz it looks like im the free-est person in the entire factory] Hawker stall, and he paid for my wantan mee..[fyi, its a type of noodle] ahahahah...Then, talked about the company abit, college abit, friends abit...and this coming weekend's ArchiDex...so wanna go to the Datum forum, but no $$ la :S A bit odd though, lunch 2 person only... :P

The happy part is, he told me tht there's a meeting on site next tuesday, and he say I can go if I'm free...So, should I consider myself free now? I really wanna go...but I scare other people made excessive comments too...though Im not sure whether they will or will not :S [ter-heard boss told one of the girl in the ID dept saying that, if u got thing to tell - go la ; if not - no need go lor]

should I? shouldn't I?

p.s : dilemma now...and lazy!! LOGBOOK submission 15th July :S
[reading Eclipse...and recently, alot of things happened; some joy, some tears too!! post the movie session with sis after i type my report?? ahahahah]
