Sorry for the long silence guys, we’ve been bogged down with unending work, not to mention organizing events as of late. just before Tharek Tharek, we opened up a stall at this semester’s archifest. like we do every semesters. This time it was small with just a couple of bikes. Trying to promote cycling and just spreading the joy around ; )

Sorry for the long wait in not updating post guys. We (the studio) had just finished organising an event, an what an event it was!
ARCHIKITE 2011 just finished AND what an AMAZING weekend it was! This vid is a trip down memory lane as we bring you the sand and sea back just for you guys!
The weekend started off with us coming down to the orphanage of Rumah Kebajikan Rukaiyah for OPKIM ( Operasi Khidmat Masyarakat), where we’d help with the tidying up of their place and anything that need fixing. In the end seeing the kids smile and making them happy are the only things that would wipe away all the hard work and make it seem negligible.
And came THAREK THAREK itself. AWESOME weather, awesome campsite, rad events, and the turn out was more than we expected. Couldn’t complain ; )
A big shout out to you guys for supporting us and making this event happen!
From Quixotic Studio.

A whole lot of events lined up for that day. We’ll also be visiting the orphans from Rumah anak anak yatim Darul Izzah to do what we can to help at their school before bringing them to the beach with us the following day. Tharek-Tharek literally means ‘pull-pull’, in line with our day of flying kites on the sunny beaches of Port Dickson.
So be sure to be there! We welcome everyone, and we do mean everyone, archi, non archi, who cares??! If you love the beach, then this is for you ; p

Life is unexpected. I would never have dreamt that i’d come back to London so early on in my life. And seeing new friends at a former place seems out of this world, kinda like time travelling. But no matter where you go, it’s the people that surrounds you, which makes the place unforgettable ; )
Met up with Dra and Fat in front of urban Outfitters in Spitalfields, that was a crazy coincidence lol. Glad to have stumbled upon them tho, wished the rest of the studio was here too ; ) And damn i closed my eyes again. Owh yeah, that’s Labi to the right of Dra haha.
In front of my former school, Bartlett in Wates House. Like FSPU, this houses town planning, construction management and other courses related to the built environment. The architecture department gets like what, 3 floors i think, lol. The summer exhibition was done in the Slade, faculty of arts. Like a 5 minute walk from Wates House. I guess its because they have a much nicer building. I gotta admit Bartlett was a bit sketchy.
Inside my former studio space. Yeah we sneaked in. So i showed them around on a quick tour of the school. You gotta admire FSPU for having larger studio’s though. No seriously, the studios are packed. There is a saying that the schools output is inversely proportional to the schools condition. And after experiencing different studio spaces from different uni’s, i guess its true.
Coming back again was good, coming back and showing good friends your former school, even better .Sure it was super hard times of trials and tribulations back then. But in the end, it was all worth it ; )
Netherlands, or in the photos below, Amsterdam, has a bike culture integrated deep into the fabric of society. With a typology of bikes created for every situation possible, etc: for bringing ur kids on a bike, for carrying postage around, even for heavy cargo. And there’s this energetic vibe seeing the roads filled with people cycling. It definitely makes for a happy city for sure ; )
Above are the Parking Lots for bicycles. Yes floors of bikes. In a city where the average family has about 3 bikes its no wonder that they’d need something like this.

Above is the work of me mate, Mior Harris. Ex Uitm Student, Graduated from the Bartlett whilst doing his M Arch programme there. And needless to say, he got a Dean’s list award for his mind blowing work. Proud of you mate. We briefly had the chance of knowing each other while i went out of Bartlett, and him going in. Ahh memories.. ; )

The girls reached Pristine in Amsterdam while on a trip to the Netherlands. I didn’t get a chance to reach there as the schedule was pretty tight. Glad someone from the studio made it there! Owh but Azrul was there first btw, haha!
