A Thought I always have.
A Thought I always have.
Where will interior design be heading in Singapore?
What make us a interior designer in Singapore?
Sad story here.
Anyone can use the 'name of interior designer' here in SG.
But the true is that they are sale not designer. And most of them are contractor based company trying to take our pie.
They give 'free interior design'.
How can we be so 'cheap'? FREE.....
3 years of training in design study.
What a waste when most of us have lost the passion in design.
Singapore have such a 'bad' environment for interior design to grow.
At the End, we are like a 'low-paid factory workers', our product is design services.
Here's a topic to be explore.

Design Note
Design Note:
A look at Architecture and design.
Here's a start to take notice in the architecture and design scene in Singapore.
1st up.
I was walking along the urban jungle of Tam-pines when a great Machine landed on my side. It look like a transformer wannable. Here's the picture taken.
Not to be alarmed as 'it' have not been moblie.
More of the photo will be upload soon........
The real fact:
A de-construction concept have been used in the design of a multi-purpose hall at this neighbourhood.
The structure is very out-of-place. I afraid that most of the resident living in the area will not be about to understand the beauty of the design.
The hall is built at open space near few block of HDB Flats. Traditionally, the hall is used to house events like weddings, wakes and residents' events.
The design is very special and a few out of normal case in HDB area.
Well done.
Do try to visit this hall. Enjoy the design.

Project 07 - PlayHub retail shop
Project 07
Retail Shop for Handphone and Games.
Client : PlayHub pte. ltd.
Location : Singapore. West area.
Background:
The client wish to open a retail shop for sale of handphone and hand-held game and console.
The shop have been selected and rent.
The size of the shop is very small but the location of the shop is very ideal.
The shop face a MRT station entrance/exist. Every day, there are a good number of people walking by.
I was engaged as the consultant on 24 Oct 2007, Wed.
The client wish to open the shop as soon as possible due to the start of rental is 07 Nov 07.
The timeline is very limited in this project.
The layout is very simple and there's no much of design.
But we must also think about the brand of the shop for the future.
Research:
Most of the shop in that area have minimal renovation works done also. Some of them have just a little counter in front of other shop which they sub-rent. To me, this kind of small ventures have a 'hit and run' feel. Some of them( counters) belong to the retail shop which sell the same products.
Another things that I have noticed is that they(the Handphone shop) usually engage the company of either Nokia or Sony ericsson or Singtel to do a display cabinet.
Most of the shop have no major concept.
Maybe, the only concern is to make a profit and stay at that way.
Open and close , open and close...........
Only those in the major shopping mall spent their money in renovation.
Solution:
Budget: limited class C.
Design Colour: White,Green and Blue.
Interior: Clean, minimal and a sense of high-tech.
Many area to be develop in the future.
Branding:
a) Colour used: Green and Blue.
b) Keeping to the consumer side, a direct logo was designed by Green Art.
For the actual location of shop, Please email to me.

Project -Retail shop named '3'
Project Haji Lane
Client : Trialogue LLC.
Unit :47
Shop name: ; '3'
Concept:
A undergound street movement that inspire the interior of the shop. By contrasting the 2 seperate storey of the shophouse, the interior direction is on the opposite edge. In layman term; Heaven and middle earth.
There will not be any introduction in the exterior of the shop but only with minimal indentity of the name of the shop and the logo.
The exterior of the shop stand out on its own. Location is great as it is in the center of the lane.
You may have miss the shop as you wonder if you should enter or walk pass. But if you are daring enough, you should enter into the tunnel of three. Let the light led you.
The owner of '3' want you to engage them. Once you are in the shop, you can never leave the shop until you understand what real street wear is. Dress well and stay out of cheap fake goods.
Ask more questions and you may be know as a person with class and taste. Or you prefer factory mass-produced you.
Design of the interior:
You have to see and feel the shop space to tell.
No words can show you.
Completed project: 07 Oct 07.
