Design to me is create or solving problem & improve our life

i like to design interior design involved most challenges .

i like modern minimalism design , because the idea modern & minimalist need to be very functional & very practical and yet have to be beautiful or good experience .

a small bed room

my favorite material for now is natural stone material , white marble & metal

when i was doing a sketches or starting to design that moment i feel the most creative

functional , nice looking , form , space , feeling , experience & movement

i feel great when i was designing

i will always find it very satisfy

when function meet emotion make me feel my design is a successful design

i will consider the practicality & user experience

as a designer is our responsibilities to improve our society & environment make sure the world always get improved to bring the world to next level

i think the future design will be involved on technology & nature a lot . i believe is a combination of super technology & nature .

the inspiration of my work if come from white , i combined the natural marble to a very modern minimalist house . the sources of inspiration is from winter & a japanese house .

i will describe my design style is modern minimalist design style . Being practical , functional & good experience is the key .

i leaving in malaysia , Kuala Lumpur city . i think the diversity of our couture affected my design a lot . i think is good so that i can have more open mind thinking to accept new things

i think working with a company is great can have a lot of discussion with team to create new idea or solving problem .

i will suggest company need to be very open minded to accept new idea from designer and prove space for them do mistake , because when we are designing or create some thing new we will always learn from our mistake and improve . companies should looking for some designer with passion about design .

normally i will start with a sketch then go in to more detail and back to the sketch again .

computer , pencil , paper , color pencil & camera

sun day morning i will cook breakfast with 4 half boiled egg 2 for mr 2 for my girl friend and coffee with her siting in our balcony enjoy the green and fresh air . after the breakfast me and her will do some planting to beautify our garden with a some tea to enjoy our sun .

i think young designer don't always putting too much attention on using technology to do the design , i think need to involve some part by hand sketches and as a designer we always learn from our mistake don't be too worries about the out come always need to be 100% perfection .

i think the positive part being a designer is always can created some thing and make others proud , the negatives part of the designer is always we have to keep making trying things that we don't even know the end result is untill we completed the project .

i think is when you are recognize or accept a problem only can solve a problem , but a lot of us don't dare to face some of the problem .

i think to have a good communication skill is important , so we can present our idea to normal people who don't understand what is our view about future .

computer , pen , pencil , paper . auto cad

i am really not good on time management of my self , i think the reason is being when i am in the mood of designing i will try to be very focus to finishing with perfect status .

normally i take about 3 month to 4 month some time take about a years

can this design still improve to be better ?

when i was joining my 1st design company

house or home owner

house or home owner , because that involve a lot of challenges and got to face different of people or owner

there's no future plans for now , i wish i can get more recognition from the world .

we work as a team

currently i don't feel like talk about it
