hello there, this exists to help my failing memory remember things I would want to remember a few years down the road.

Went to the Design Society Conference with YT yesterday morning.
It was a star-studded event, design stars I guess, the people whose work we have admired for quite long a time.

Only managed to stay for the first three speakers because my Supreme Designer > my idol designers. But it was good enough. :Phunk Studio was sooo super funny! I have a newfound respect for them and that brotherly fearless spirit, always saying yes to all sorts of clients even though they knew little. And that has brought them all the way to now, 16 years later. Fav visual rock band indeed ('cause they're the only visual rock band...)!

Realised that 10am Communications did the Orchard Ion campaign (must have earned a lot) and the Speak good mandarin campaign that I always wow at at the stations etc. These creative people always make it sound effortless. Oh, the middle speaker was just very deep, so must think very the hard to understand himzzz.

It's exciting times in Singapore design, they say.
Thank you our "ancestors" who paved and are paving a road easier for us,
if I/we ever do make it.

The Design Society seeks to raise the design literacy of Singaporeans in general. And their 100 icons of Singapore display did fulfill that. We saw so many curious Singaporeans wondering why their fav banks, tiger balm, PAP logos were laid out and printed nicely and stuck on panels at the National Lib.

And I am very proud of YT and her clever pattern that they have printed and embossed on the cover of the bi-annual magazine. I'll keep it and show it to my kids. HAHA.

It was a good morning.

(then was a good service, and a good time of visiting Shuz at her new house.) 0 comments
