KG goes places...
Where has dissertation preparation brought me to? Sigh... Ever been to the most ulu part of Singapore? I've actually passed by this place several times (and by several, I mean super alot of times... like 70 times? hmmm...) because I was posted to Sungei Gedong Armour Camp for my NS. But I've never been inside before... So wat's this Thow Kwang Pottery Jungle about?
Well, it is a temporary structure made from re-used old timber. It is temporarly, because the land could be taken back by the gah-men anytime. So to build something cheap with the material at hand would prove to be the most economical solution. Designed by Yang Pow Sing... I would say that the pottery easily outshines the architecture, but I do agree it has its own certain aesthetics. Well, it is a sustainable solution I guess... to reuse materials for construction.
Guess meeting the dissertation tutor once a week is a good thing... It forces you to work, well, once a week :) Continue to work on Akatsuki now... no progress since last post... Hoho.
