0773H

My obsession of using letters and numbers for naming objects or projects is getting more obvious since I named my graduation project which was a floor lamp as POST220. A floor lamp design that expresses my affection towards street lamps in different cities. I find the distance between the object and people very beautiful and poetic as it reminds me of other distances found between architecture and people. The best example would be the dome shaped ceiling inside a historical church, which is often seen in European countries, was designed with the purpose to make one feel impossible to reach god. 

The initial sketch of my floor lamp design

My tutor told me the design reminded him of an artistic lamp made with plants he saw in Bali but I forgot its name. I will find it out.

I found this photo on this blog.

This is beautiful isn't it? There are a lot of interesting crafts in Southeast Asian region and I would love to spend more time to discover more. I just got back from Singapore around a week ago, the blend of colonial culture and aboriginal culture was very well kept in its language - Singlish, as well as their food! The National Museum showed quite a lot of interesting events and people in the past, even though I find the curation was a little bit difficult to follow. 

Back to the topic of the naming obsession, 0773H is HELLO when it's written upside down! I think it would be a perfect display on the top of the page.
