My final design for this semester
i really do not enjoy my studio this semester. bugger... i think our university really need to do something about part time tutor who has induction for only few hours and have most their time doing their full time job to support their expensive lifestyle. bugger , i do not pay my uni fees to get 20 mins of studio session each week. this semester is the most crappy semester studio i ever got and have spent... doing my design and trying to put in the process is really pain in the ass.

Seriousily i think this elective of popular architecture of australia is so fun, i can enjoy movie and do stuff which is relaxing. It is the most relaxing subject in this semester for me.
Sherlock Holmes Illustration
This exercise in the popular architecture is to show an illustration of the part of the story in the Sherlock Holmes in Australia. My classmates did a very interesting collage, comic but i choose to show the poster in an overall story.
