Anyway... A little graphic or whatever job this applies to. I just found it really smart and so simple (I love simple).
The interior was designed by Fantastic Design Works Inc. (Yes, I stalk their website)
The name of the shop is Maruha Shokudo.
And the focus of the picture is the signboard.
Maru is 'circle' in Japanese and the word on the signboard is 'ha'.
It's HA in a circle.. a 'maru'.
Maruha! (Well, I don't think it was Fantastic Design Works Inc. that designed that logo but either way, it really caught my attention)
Sorry... I stalk them too much.
I would absolutely DIE if I could work in that firm.
Even if I was just running errands or even if I'm just stuck at the computer doing AutoCAD.
I'm currently studying and I'm soo dead tired but I HAVE to pass my quiz tomorrow since I'm most likely failing Design Principles this term.
I really don't understand why my tutors hate my simple mind so much.
Why do we try to be complicated?
Why do we try to see a line as a curve and not a line?
Why can't I just be who I really am?
I love white. I love squares.
Why do they hate me for loving decoration?
At times, I just feel like throwing my scale ruler in and just walk out.
Excuse me, it just finally sank in that my tutor completely trashed so many weeks of my time and sleep and my identity as a designer.
They think I'm not working hard or trying hard or that I'm not interested.
And I think it's really unfair that they judge me when they have not seen me work.
I slept an average of an hour a day for the past two weeks and my tutor told me I'm not working hard enough. How much harder do they want me to work? To the point of death?
The Japanese are workaholics but they get sleep!
...
Okay, I just deleted half my post because I realised that I was showing a weakness that I have promised myself I'll never again show.
You know, what Nee On said, might be true.. That eventhough I'm sad, stressed or angry, I hide it. Even Chris and my Mum has told me this.
I don't know if it's normal that I find it hard to bare my soul when facing a person but when facing Ivan, it's so natural and normal. That is why it's hard for me to think of losing Ivan.
Shit, moment of weakness.
And I was trying to start on my work for Tuesday.
Stepping up my game.
I'm gonna forget how much I adore sleep.
I'm gonna forget how much fun it is to sit around and do nothing because I have no choice.
I might as well say goodbye to life as I know it and be a boring moldy old person.
Like I told Claire, one day, we'll show them.
My sister is not home from her dinner...
Is it normal to have dinner at 3AM?
Doesn't she have work tomorrow?
I guess my site will be at KLCC's centre.
Cause it's easily accesible by all sorts of public transport and everybody has heard of it.
And the 'special area' that my tutor always wants us to have will completely use the technology behind the touch screen. Was thinking of imitating the console with the touch screen at human level and the normal screen scaled up and that will be the backdrop. People that walk in can play with the touch screen by writing/drawing and when they're done, all they do is press the big A button or any button and their writing will be featured on the backdrop. This space will of course be the centre of the booth.
It's an idea at the moment, need to find a way to fully utilize all buttons and touch screen.
There'll also be a download centre to download games wirelessly on the DS (like in the stores) for those that already have a DS.
Also there'll be a tryout area with a significant amount of consoles complete with comfortable chairs.
An information counter or reception for the clueless people (*tsktsk* How not to know about Nintendo?)
I'm guessing that my expressive element will be the strokes that is made on the touchscreen when playing.
Colour scheme will be derived from their website... which is gradients of white and gray with a touch of red (Thanks to Mario).
Shapes will mostly imitate the console's shape as even the website's squares look like the DS.
Need to work on the building programme.
Going to sleep now.
Need to refresh my mind.
