Detour 2011
Went to Central to renew my passport today, I then had lunch with a friend who works nearby. It’s not that often that I cross the Victoria Habour, so I made the most of it and visited the Detour 2011. It’s nice seeing local artists’ creative use of ‘useless’ materials to make their wonderful installations. […]

Cleanup
Had been doing a lot of clean up since last week. First was my bedroom, finally cleared up all the cardboard saved from my brother’s home renovation during summer, took a lot of time converting them into “bricks“. Following was my home studio, it was uncomfortably disorganized – cardboard scraps, freelance work, passport renewal forms, […]

dEEsigners’ Launch
Was planning to write this entry yesterday when the news about our dEEsigners’ site launch was still fresh, but was called out for drinks with friends after fellowship & dinner last night, and somehow ended up pulling an all-nighter and didn’t get home until 9 in the morning! Crazy friends! Anyway, we finally launched our […]

More Illustrations
Spent another day doing illustrations for a small freelance job, Adobe Illustrator is quickly becoming my friend! It’s a cool and rainy day here in HK, and it will likely stay this way for much of this week. Feels good being able to close my home studio’s door without worrying being baked by the scorching […]

Leaflet Design
Created vector graphics based on the previous hand-drawn illustrations, updated the leaflet design according to the change requests, and finally printed it off from my inkjet printer. Couldn’t keep my eyes off my creation, I guess that’s the feeling of satisfaction from your work, ‘love what you do’!

Tired
Had been sleeping considerably less for most of the days this week, tired, fell asleep while watching one of my favorite weekly interior design TV show. Much more time was spent on work, must admit that it’s not easy to keep myself motivated when there’s no deadline or a clear vision to follow, but the […]

Typhoon No.8
If I remember correctly, this is the first time the typhoon no.8 signal was issued since I returned to HK 2 years ago. Offices and schools were closed, but for people who works from home, today is just another regular work day. I managed to get some work done in this crazy weather.

dEEsigners’ Headquarter
Took me about a week to design a 3D model of our new dEEsigners’ Headquarter. Incorporated into it some of the environmental design strategies I’ve learnt through school, guess it wasn’t a complete waste of time and money to pursue my last M. Sc. degree… Next step is to furnish our new office and arrange […]

Google Tools
It’s been a long time since I did any kind of javascript coding, can’t even remember how to do setup an array()! Did some proof-of-concepts for a potential client, it’s my first time trying to embed Google tools in webpages, I’m amazed at how powerful and ease-of-use their web APIs are!

A New Beginning
Today is the great back-to-school day for my nephews and niece, I’m also marking this day as the beginning of my journey back into the real world, saying goodbye to the tender embrace of academia. In the process of starting a company, something I had been wanting to try for many years. Excited but at […]
