moving to the rear part of shophouses

you can actually find out there is some 

of the interesting artpiece made of

simple material yet resembling something

bring out the essence and the atmosphere of 

old shophouses.

                    

expression though words

painting

art piece

lighting

atmosphere

space 

AIR

 

the ending part of the baboon house is 

full with vegetation where 

there is some seating provided

with some forest style decoration

                        

  

another airwell with skylight on top 

with lots and lots of vegetation on it

somehow i like the way how fern growing and blend 

into the building

thats how architecture needs!

design INTERGRATION!

DETERMINISM!

looking for something

ORIGINAL?

the orang tempatan or the orang ulu

the mask, the lighting

create the feeling of how a place

that a baboon should stay! 

nevertheless! the bar area where is made of all the raw material

the brickwork
