-ISM Architecture Exhibition

Last night, I attended an architecture exhibition by architecture students from Taylor's University.

If I'm not mistaken, the exhibition is still on going until a certain date. It is held at White Box, Publika.

What's the exhibition about? - Taylor's University graduating architecture students displaying their awesome final projects :)

A friend invited me to attend it and I went. Another 2 of my friends' work are displayed in the exhibition as well. Their projects are really good! I circulated the exhibition and EVERYBODY'S WORK IS GOOD. I feel so pressured ><

The theme of the exhibition is -ISM. A clearer definition from the Facebook event page; -ISM is used in philosophy to identify a specific style of philosophy or in another word, theory. It reflects not only on our three-years encounter with architecture, but also the on-going urge to move forward, and that these styles of philosophy apply the same in architecture, theories that describe ways of thinking about architecture.

I thought it was a cool concept :)

Me and my high school peeps. The both of them are studying architecture! I'm the odd interior designer lol. The girl on my left is the friend who invited me to the exhibition. Her work is being displayed! :)


Before the exhibition, we had dinner at Ben's. I had this delicious Pad Thai Seafood Linguine :)

Also, I realised that Publika has a huge influence in graphics. I've been to the 2 different toilets at Publika and each toilet has a different graphic. They're really interesting :D

I usually don't take photos of washrooms but this was quite cool lol.

One example below;



Cool no? Lol.

I'll the end the post with 2 pictures.


Me and bro.

Nama Nama

A couple of weeks ago, I visited Nama Nama Restaurant on Spring Street, Melbourne. 

I've been there about 3 times already and I really like the place and food. It is a Japanese restaurant and they're popular for their Udon and Bento. They have sushi and yummy desserts as well :)



(Images taken from previous posts)

It is quite pricey for me but I don't mind going back there once in a while.

What I really like about the place is also the fact that the waiters/waitress are Japanese. It is really authentic and I know I'm getting the real deal lol. Besides that, they use recycled materials for some  parts in the restaurant. I find that really cool and interesting :) Save the earth!

Isn't it lovely? :D I enjoy the atmosphere and the simple design. The food is really nice too :)

When I went there last week, I took these photos for an assignment which was related to Sustainability. So, I entered the shop around 3-4 pm on a Friday afternoon and I was the only customer. 

There was a Japanese waiter (he was cute xD) and I asked him which dessert is highly recommended? He recommended an apple cake and I decided to order that.


That's the cake :)
It was soooo yummy xD I really liked it. When I took a few bites, the waiter came and gave me a glass of hot soy milk. I was surprised because I knew that I didn't order that. I gave him a confused look lol.

He said he gave that to me because it goes really well with the apple cake. Oh my heart melted xD

He was nice and polite. Good service! xD

Not many of my friends know about this restaurant so I decided to blog about it :D It is worth a visit :)

That's it for this post! Thank you for reading :)

TTFN!
