Fingerbowl

Fingerbowl 1Something personal? Would u mind having my finger print on your plate? .'p Fingerbowl is a design by Judith Seng made from porcelain that come in glazed white finish.
"To consciously give somebody one's personal fingerprint is a matter of trust and sympathy. Transformed into a gift, it is mirroring a political issue in an aesthetical gesture." -Judith Seng, Industreal.

Westwood Hotel Stationary by Visual Advice

Westwood Hotel StationaryI was captured by the timber tones of the hotel cut-out letters' menu and love the minimal approach for the hotel stationary design range.'>
"This menu, as well as these coasters, envelopes and door hangers, serve a part of the identity of a boutique hotel. The wooden tones and minimal design of these objects, made out of cut-out letters, are meant to emphasize the prestige associated with this hotel." -Visual Advise.

Cameron Highlands Resort, Malaysia- 5 Best: Tea Plantation Hotels o1 (Year 2oo7)

Cameron Highlands Resort facade 1I almost forget to mention about this magnificent resort which we drove through when we were on our way to Equatorial Hotel in Cameron Highlands, Malaysia on February this year. The next day, WC & I make an effort to return + took photos of the facade (we did not make an effort to ask whether we can go inside to have a look because they look like they are holding some sort of function.'>. We used to do that when we travel outside Malaysia, for example in Java we asked & were taken to a brief tour in Amanjiwo.'> . Will make an effort to introduce Amanresorts later & let u guys decide on how cool these resorts are).

It was awarded Five Best Tea Plantation Hotels by The Independent UK in 2oo7.

Cameron Highlands Resort is a blend of faux-Tudor properties, quaint rose gardens and bucolic lanes surrounded by jungle and tea plantations, named after a 19th-century British surveyor, William Cameron. Set in the cool green hill stations of Pahang where Malaysia's biggest tea-growing region is, this 56-room boutique hotel is an elegant colonial-style retreat that offers things tea-related from mint tea baths to rose tea massages, the brew also plays a central role in the Tea Bathrooms Spa in the resort's Spa Village.

Early 2oth Century Industrial Cage Lights

Early 2oth Century Industrial Cage Lights 1If u notice, earlier i'd written about going back to industrial age with Edison Chandelier. Now, i'd like to present u this, The Early 2oth Century Industrial Cage Lights which come with 3 metal cage lights from 1915-1920s. Shown here with Edison bulbs.
I actually love this rawness & unpretentious light-fixture which is quite similiar with those lights construction workers still using in Nanchang, China when i was there for a 3-whole months design & supervision job on year 2oo7(my previous employed job, i lefted .'>).

Early 2oth Century Industrial Cage Lights 2Here, how they look during night time & do check-out the Edison Chandelier too!
