Co-working Space Alternatives

booblegum — Tue, 04 Jun 2019 12:31:27 +0800

Hello there!

Are there any freelancers / entrepreneurs here who are looking for space but find existing co-working spaces to be too expensive? I'm actually interested to building a platform for existing offices with nice space to rent out extra shared spaces for others to book and use, while also building relationships with local businesses. Would anyone be interested in using a concept like that – think Airbnb for office spaces?

Thank you all!!

Design Books Community!

booblegum — Sat, 30 May 2015 18:05:37 +0800

Hey fellow designers!

I've been browsing through arts & design books recently in book stores like Basheer Graphics & Kinokuniya and find these books to be incredibly expensive (even for design professionals). So I did some research and discovered that if we purchase books in volume from some publishers, not necessarily the same title, we can get huge discounts off!

My personal interest falls on this book:

Designing Here/Now by Core77 (Thames and Hudson)

The retail price is about RM170.00, if there's enough requests to buy this book, about 10-11 buyers, the price goes down to about RM100.00, which gives about a 40% discount! Not bad at all

Would love to know if anyone is interested in buying this book or any other books from the same publisher, Thames and Hudson, do leave a comment. If you are a poor but avid book lover like me, do also share your favourite / recommended design books!

Thanks

[INTI University] Interior Design BA

booblegum — Sat, 21 Jun 2014 12:39:13 +0800

Hey guys,

DESIGN STUDIES!

I know for the most part studying design is a small fraction of what most students are looking into. I have an interest in design and looking to further my studies locally. The best options so far are Taylor's, INTI and KBU for Interior Design. Overseas would be ideal, but then again it's a realistic world.

The least popular of the three universities is INTI, but also the most flexible and cost-efficient. Knowing that this course is relatively new in INTI, does anyone here know if the Interior Design course is any good? Are the lecturers informative? Is the environment cohesive to exploration? Would you recommend studying here?

If you're an INTI student in a different course, feel free to share your experiences too! Any other comments or opinions would be greatly appreciated too, thanks.

Compilation of Good Design Companies

booblegum — Wed, 09 May 2012 10:56:06 +0800

Hey guys,

Noticed an array of threads and topics concerning salary, environment, "slavery".
I guess these are imperatives in anyone's life! Now let's talk about creative passion.

So this thread is about design companies. To compile great design companies (or at least commendable) is necessary for blossoming design graduates in our country. It's important to further motivate fresh designers by introducing them solid design-driven and collaborative design companies that will bring about better aesthetics and functions locally in almost anything.

If anyone is willing to contribute, I hope this template helps in clarity:

QUOTE

1) Type of Industry (Industrial/Product, Interiors, Architecture, Fine Arts etc)
2) Company Details (Title, Contact)
3) Reasons (in your own definition of what makes it appealing)

FYI, I'm from an Interior Design background looking for a good Industrial/Product design company which is hard to find even on Google!

Thank you!

Looking for teachers/tutorials/MASTERS!

booblegum — Tue, 01 Feb 2011 15:24:15 +0800

Alright firstly HUGE apologies if there are previous threads on seeking help creating websites. (probably there are loads of people seeking help in this too) This thread is purely for those who can contribute freely out of much love (?) and free time!

I'd love to create a website and have the ideas in mind, but in execution i don't know any coding, servers, PHP, all of that! I do have some designing skills to accompany with tho.

Now i'm a little desperate after searching through many unsatisfying tutorials that i turn to the GREAT LYN community, to find somebody who can privately tutor me like a FAQs session through MSN or e-mail or any means online. I'd like to find anybody who can teach me everything from scratch, mySQL, servers, databases, web domains etc. (I LEARN FAST, i think)

Surely there must be great coders/web-masters with all the skills and some kindness to sprinkle

Thank you so much for reading this thread, i'll be checking back frequently!

Making models (HELP!)

booblegum — Sat, 11 Apr 2009 09:16:01 +0800

Alright hello. *smiles a bit*

So i'm required to make models for my ID class and it's actually more difficult than i thought it would be. Cutting straight shapes with model boards/mounting boards are fairly easy, but i REALLY can't cut curves etc!

So my questions are these:

-What materials are good to make models?
-How do i freakkin' cut curvey shapes?
-AND, is there ANY company you guys know that help you cut your model boards etc?

I'm not being lazy OKAY!

Thanks.
