Refurbishment for a plastic surgery clinic.

Can human milk sharing system be as acceptable as that of blood, egg or sperm donation? After all, they are all replenishable bodily fluids and tissues. I wanted to find out what makes it indecent for women to breastfeed their babies in public. Is it because it disrupts the border between motherhood and sexuality? And why is it appalling for us to consume milk from our own species but acceptable with animal’s milk.

The human cheese shop is made into physical by a waiter presenting human cheese on a platter as a tasting session. Turning bodily fluid into something more palatable perhaps.

Ceremonial objects have been utilized as a means for establishing or maintaining communication between the sacred and the profane. This is a scaled model of Oslo S and its vicinities. Smoke used as the main element in contrast with concrete as it creates lightweight and ephemeral feel without having a definite form. It fills up as much as the gap can hold.  

The spreading of smoke, fragrance and visible movement of the smoke upwards towards heaven has given it a symbolic relationship to prayer, making the offering synonymous with worship. The smell of Beech wood that lingers afterwards edifies the gap temporarily.

In architecture or in interior we are always looking at our surroundings; the chair, the table and the tangibles. In this project I questioned the opposite, what is the intangible and the negative?

Instead of a chair that you sit on, this is an exploration of an architectural garment that sticks on you and follows your body movement.

This unit can be added and re-arranged to achieve your need.

One man's junk is another man's treasure! Utilising unused materials to fit them with a new purpose, transforming this small office home office (SOHO) space to an "engine room" with a rooftop hangout spot. Items that were re-purposed are metal grilles, vintage lanterns from Jakarta and wood pallets.

This project is a collaboration with Kech Design Studio and has won the award of Top 10 My Favourite Interior Designer 2013 (Residential)

Situated in a very quiet residential area, the owner wanted a design that complements the surrounding and also more storage area. 

The most major work done is to remodel the whole floor plan to fit the requirement and hence a calming brown tone overall was chosen to exude such ambiance. In terms of material, real wood veneer was used instead of printed laminate to achieve natural look. 

A long walkway that is not used was turned it into a long 5 meter storage cabinet for the whole family.

I love introducing vegetation and natural materials into spaces to make it more liveable. Especially with spaces that has big windows for daylight to pour into.
