Design My Place

This is a poster that I did for one of the upcoming projects that I am involved in with re:act aka Really Architecture. This is a society that some of my friends and I set up to promote architecture that is socially conscious and relevant to Southeast Asia. We are sort of a group of people trying to do good with our experiences and skills. You can find out more at our blog and website (though the website hasn't been updated in a while). The workshop that we are doing this round is with AEP students from different JCs. It will be a 3 day non-residential workshop where we teach them to map out their neighbourhood in interesting yet relevant ways and to finally come up with a collective vision for the neighbourhood after making all their observations and studies.

Gum Revision

I went through the design of the logo again and revised it a little. This is a version that I might use for a nice big poster, where all the detailing of the line pattern can be appreciated.

In that case, it would go something like this, "Hey dude, do you have and chewing gum gum with you? I'm starved!" or "What's wrong with your gum gum? It's chao ji red lah. Better go see a gumtist." Or so I think...

Gum Gum Ho

I just finished this design of 2 logos for my brother. He is involved in this year's NDP as a mentor for the NDP motivators. These are students from various ITEs in Singapore who help bring up the atmosphere during NDP by motivating the crowd through cheers and actions. The logo is for their T-shirt, or rather my brother's cluster who decided to give themselves a rather interesting name, "Gum Gum". The main logo goes on the front of the T-shirt, while the other one in the background goes on the back, just below the collar.
