Punctuation booklet

The draft of a small booklet about punctuation.
I was inspired by the famous building Habitat 67.
The first page is the cover. The rest is 4 of the insides pages. The back of these pages create a pop up illustrating the concept. The ponctuations are made from boxes with different sizes. The placement of these boxes actually create a space/structure like Habitat 67.

IF: contraption

The third page of my watercolor Moleskine. I'm feeling guilty for letting it covered with dust at the corner of my desk. These days people often ask/prefer digital works from me, "because it is faster and easier to revise", they said. It is true but sad. I still believe a pencil and a dream can take me anywhere.

IF: influence



This is me under the influence of the difference trainings I got. And I appreciate the blurred boundary between art & design.
The illustration is burned on a piece of plywood. Handmade, of course.

IF: imperfect


Like many designers, I'm a perfectionist. I look for the perfection in any art field that I come across. But I really appreciate the beauty of imperfection in pottery, especially the Wabi Sabi concept in japanese pottery Raku. It is literally the human touch that create the beauty. And we human being are imperfect.

Work, work, and work...


A draft for a bookcover I'm working on. The cover may turn out very different. We'll see...
Managing 3 blogs and one online portfolio is really time consuming. 
I'm still working on my unB[  ]X project. So far I have finished the logo and the type display.  I was trying to figure out how to present the work on unB[ ]X your creativity, the blog created just for this project. I wanted to change the layout of the blog to have a better layout. This involved the coding part behind the blog which is quite complicated. After all, I gave up the on screen presentation and decide to concentrate on the work itself. I also want to bring my online portfolio from Krop database to Tumblr.
So I'm planning to have 2 blogs: unB[ ]X your creativity (only for unB[  ]X project), Square of the day (only for photography); and my online portfolio on Tumblr; then this blog as an online journal. Lots of work here and there. Well, summer is cleaning up time.
