  • Hax - Floating Structure

    Its my first studio project entitled 'Integrated Project: Floating Structure'. So what its all about? Floating is all about making something float either in the air or on the surface of a water. Structure? i think its combination of materials that can support weight.

    OK, enough of the vocabularies. Its not the accurate definition, so you have to look for them in wikipedia for precise intepretations. Among the design criteria for this project is that; it floats (without any air trapped inside); support more than 70 kilogrammes; stable; portability; and it has aesthetic value.

    I was in the same group with Khairul Izhar, Aslam, Thuwaibah, Haslinda and Siti Sarah. In the early of the project, I'm totally not in the right mood for designing. I think that, since its a group work, why don't let my friend do the design and I'm just help in construction and presentation board.. I'm good working with computers and that's why I'm thinking bout it..

    About our design? Its very simple. Derived from a tortoise hexagonal shell - we call our prototype as 'HAX' with the tagline of 'Simple, Practical, Lightweight'. Only 3 materials involved which are dustbins, bamboos and manila rope.

    Here's just a simple report. We started working on constructing the HAX from Sunday 17th Dec to Friday 22nd Dec. We've tested on Tuesday and it seems that it can support my weight. Up to Thursday, the bamboo has shrunk and the knot (ibo knot) was loosen. And finally, the day of judgement where we put on our prototype at a river near Convest hill to test it to the extreme. Good thing, our design support more than 100kgs without any hassle. We also come up with the presentation bunting instead of using boards for the presentation day.

    Its hard to describe about the design now, I will upload the pictures later. Please come back again later!

  • Short Documentary Kuda Kepang Short Documentary


    Kuda kepang is famous in Johore especially in Batu Pahat. Since my group have chosen this topic, we need to go to the 'crime scene' to investigate the real case.

    On Friday night, 9pm, we departed from UIA to Putra LRT. We take Komuter at KL Sentral to get to Port Klang because Hisham red Kancil was there. We took our dinner before we start our journey at 1am. Its already Saturday. Hisham take the wheel while I'm assisting him to read the signboards and look for direction. Its hard to resist sleepiness in the middle of the night but I have to because I need to respect the driver. I also hate it when I'm driving while my passengers' sleeping.

    We entered the highway from Nilai and we take the exit at Tangkak. From there, we look for Muar, Batu Pahat and I pay more attention for Semerah and Sungai Nibong. That's where our 'suspect' live. Around 5am, we take a nap at Crocodile's Nest Mosque a.k.a Masjid Sarang Buaya. Just a quick nap before the Subuh prayer.

    We have our breakfast at food court near Pasar Awam Semerah. We finally arrived at Mr. Naim Marjani's residents. He's among the craftsmen of kuda kepang. We conduct an interview with him. But the funny part is, during the interview, we are very sleepy. Its not that we were boring listening to his story, but unfortunately we don't have enough sleep the night before. We decided to leave his house to sleep at the former mosque. We told him that we have some items left.. what an excuse!

    Around 1pm we went to his house and they prepared lunch for us. Actually, on the same day, Library of Batu Pahat was having a edu-visit to Wak Naim house to watch the kuda kepang performance. That's why we choose that day for our research because I need some visual as well as videos for our documentary project. The event started at 3pm and ended around 5.30pm.

    Some interesting facts.
    • During kuda kepang performance, some of the dancers will be possessed by a kuda kepang spirit and when they are unconscious, they will act strangely. That's very terrifying but its true!
    • We also had an opportunity to learn some of the basic dance step in kuda kepang dance. Its very easy but carrying the leather made horse puppet is giving me some ache!

    Our journey home... We went to Batu Pahat city and take the highway from Yong Peng. We had our dinner at highway lay by, RnR Pagoh and we also had some durians! I take the wheel from there and finally, we arrived at UIA around 1.30am.

    Its a whole day full of excitement despite our lack of sleep and of course its very tiring. I've got a lot of information about kuda kepang and let's see how can I reveal the mystic and mysteries in my documentary later.

    P/S – its my first time been in Johore!

  • Cubic Dwelling

    This is solely an interior design project. Student were given a cubicle space with measurement of 6x6x6 metres and we need to design the interior of that given space. The basic requirement are living room, kitchen, dining room, bathroom and bedroom.

    Its the most challenging project because with the time restriction, we need to produce good design with drawings and scale model.

  • Pottery Making & Restoration of Ceramics

    This project exposes students with the world of conservation. But, its a very surface exposure. That's why at the end of the semester, most students doesn't choose conservation as their future majoring.

    There are two parts of it. First, students were exposed to pottery making techniques such as coiling, press molding and slabbing as well as throwing technique.

    Second part of it is the restoration of ceramics. Students need to get any ceramic objects either it was broken or not, then we need to restore it as it should be.

  • Corrugated Board Seating

    This is mainly another industrial design project.

    Almost every design school will have this program for their students.

    We need to find used corrugated boards and design creatively on how it can be used as a single seater.

    Its a group work and I worked with Najwa Halim and Hidayah.

    Our concept is 'Maple Leaf'.

  • Visual Art

    Students need to design a glass panel for CBE.

    Its a final project but its not very challenging.

    We glad we were exposed to the glass materials and sandblasting technique.

    To be updated later.
