Objects #3 - Ceramics in Kyoto [清水燒]

清水燒

Ceramics is one of the most beautiful inventions on earth, and they are proofs of human civilization.

These pictures were taken when I was on my way to Kiyomizu-dera, a Buddhist temple that can satisfy your love for architecture, nature, objects, religion beliefs and history.

Objects #2 - Gift idea!

This reminds me of bone China and China blue even though it is neither. Putting words or quotes on an object and display it can be a very pleasant way to decorate, and remind yourself about anything.

If you want to remind your friend when your birthday is, carve in on a stone and send it as a birthday gift! Brilliant idea? Yes. Discover your little extra and enjoy life. Ciao!

Objects #1 - Tools I need in order to blog

Am I missing my headphone? Yes it was broken last time when I was jogging downstairs, have to get a new one before the one from Apple breaks my ear.

These are objects that I need when I blog or when I do my preparation. They have to be in the #1 post just because I want them to. Black is the best colour for tools, still look cool when it is broken, I have the best example in my bag.

From left to right:
CASIO MQ-24 [1330] : Classic, simple, durable and water-proof; what more can I ask for?
CANON S100 : Perfect for night shooting, handy, fits into pockets, that is why he is always with me. Kiss X2 will be with me when it is a planned shooting.
iPhone 4S : Perfectly cool with the broken glass, still working perfectly and getting more admirers because of his charm. And yes one day it is going to split my cheek into half when I pick up the phone.
iPod Shuffle : Limited RED edition for charity with my name engraved, it was a gift from my sister and that was why the object has my name on it, that is something I rarely do.
ZEQUENZ 360 Sketchbook : Small, handy, well designed, 360 flexible, can be folded back, rolled up, durable and comfortable for left handed geeks.
MUJI Gel Pen 0.5 : I always prefer thicker tip when it comes to writing, I would only need very thin tip when I do fine lines drawing or type art.
MacBook Pro 15": My computer, for everything.
BAMBOO : I drew the picture, and every digital drawing with it!

It's been a long day, off to bed! Have fun with your objects, ciao!

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.
