Printing Emptiness

'印' means printing, while '白' means white, space or emptiness.
I simply like the contradictory between the combination of the characters. Can you print space? Space can't be created nor destroyed, but it can be defined... And that is something I need to nail it!

I always wanted to check out the letterpress shops at Sheung Wan, but I was too chicken to do that alone... One day, I came across an article about letterpress printing in Hong Kong, and find out one of the shop is now running workshops for the public!!!! So, these are what I did on boxing day ...

The Curious Object - I
Something ordinary but strange,
something familiar but different...
It added some extra spices to my peaceful Sunday morning!

It's time...
I have been real bad on managing this blog, it's time to get this blog rolling again. People, every second counts, don't let it slip away...

Rush?

Bali is beautiful.

It would have been more beautiful,

if we get to see it slowly...

Life can be short if you rush it.

Just take it easy!

hello

It's spring time in Hong Kong!
I guess it's a good timing to get the blog rolling again ;p

Burnout I


Burnout II

We sneaked in an abandoned TV production factory couple weeks ago. The little adventure was actually quite fun. Lots of random objects that I like...

I start feeling the "helplessness" of designers in Hong Kong, or maybe it is a global thing... Everytime when I look at real nice designs from zines & websites, I ask myself "why can't I do something like that?" Sometimes I just feel my little design pride is burnning out slowly...I am getting commercialised and becoming a design machine. That is what I really hate to be...

I really need to do something else to balance out...something doesn't involve computer definitly!

the harmony and conflicts

The suburb I live is an interesting place. It is quite country where
you can see ponds, fields and lots of birdies, but at the same time you can also see abandoned cargo containers or machine parts nearby. It's a place of natures and pollutions while these two things somehow fit quite well together. I have always wanted to explore the surrounding and finally I did. Even though it was just a little tryout,
I was so inspired!
