Ais Kacang x IDD 2018
Ais Kacang x IDD 2018 is a collaboration project between final year BGDSHU and BIDSHU students. The aim is to present a Malaysian dish, Ais Kacang, and visualize it for a far future. Our group consists of 7 students, 2 from BGDSHU and 5 from BIDSHU. We decided to tackle on overpopulation and how it contributes to pollution. But first, take a look at the team :
After forming our group, we began brainstorming on ideas on how to have a presentable Ais Kacang. We had so many meetings, that it is hard to count the number of times. But our meetings are never dull, cause we always crack jokes and laugh at it for hours. Just look at us here :
But anyway, during the discussion, while we ate our lunch, we started to think of how an Ais Kacang would look like in the future after overpopulation have taken over. Our vision of the situation is that resources would be limited and people would fight each other to obtain their needs. Blood will shed! So, once that discussion was done, we individually started sketching our own ideas to see which would suit the best. In the end, we decided to use back everyone’s sketch by merging it into one. Voila :
We then had our interim presentation to pitch our idea. We volunteered Emma to be our presenter as we felt she had extremely good presenting skills. This is our presentation slides :
After sketching, we started planning out our materials and where to get them. Everyone had to get different items. For me, it was acrylic, watercolour, brushes, Chinese ink, and a palette. We gathered together outside of the Mezzanine Floor on Thursday to start our masterpiece. Take a look at us here enjoying ourselves while making our Ais Kacang :
We really enjoyed ourselves while building the prototype. After building the prototype, Pavitra and I designed the presentation boards for our final presentation. Below are how our boards look like :
On presentation day, we asked Emma to present for us again, after her wonderful presentation during the interim. We brought in our prototype to show our lecturers the outcome of the project. This is us after our presentation with our Ais Kacang :

My Reflection :
-
I enjoyed my time in this group
-
We had good communication skills when speaking to one another
-
We support one another during the project and make sure each contributed something
-
Overall, it was a well accomplished project and I had lots of fun

LEO Name Card
LEO Name Card is a client-based project between LEO President Marcus and myself. I was approached by LEO Marcus to design their committee’s name card for the fiscal year of 2018-2019. So, LEO Marcus and I picked a day to brainstorm together on the project. I had to make myself understand more about the club, so I interviewed LEO Marcus to learn more about the club. This is my findings:
What is this club about?
- Charity based club
-Focus on raising funds
- Collaborates with other LEO clubs from other universities/colleges/high schools
Activities done:
- Charity bazaar
- Visit old folks home
- Tree planting
- Visit animal shelter
- Hope bazaar
- Visit children’s home
- Organise members gathering
- Halloween night
- LEO camping weekends
- Metro joint installation
Discussion on the name card project:
- Name card design for each committee members
- To represent the essence of LEO club
- To show sneak peaks of what LEO club is about to other students/staff/the public
- To have an identity of its own via a name card
Positions:
- President
- Vice President
- Secretary
- Treasurer
- Membership
- Community Service
- Health & Environment
After much discussion, LEO Marcus and I started to discuss on doodling styles for the name card. Take a look below:
While sketching, I also started to draft out the positioning of the doodles on the name card. I came out with 2 different options at first, and LEO Marcus told me to try and do both versions. In-mid of doing the first option, LEO Marcus decided to immediately go with the second option, so I scrapped out the first one.
After finally figuring out the outlook of the name card design, I started to doodle my first draft of the design. I decided to draw the doodles in the LEO’s lion logo.
Once I drew it out, I than transferred it to digital to start designing the name card. This is how the final outcome looks like:
Each card has a different style of doodling to form the logo of LEO Club’s lion. To have a clearer view, take a look at my presentation board:
