Photoshop........

These are so far what i did. Photoshop is harddddd however, actually it is pretty good to depict a certain kind of atmosphere that i want.

Jeni's Scanning

How to scan:
Firstly there are two ways

• Go to photoshop and press the menu 'File' and then import, then click the 'HP scan Pro' then click the menu 'Adjust'. Then you decide which colour and resolution you want for the image. After you place the image on the scanner board, press the menu 'New scan' then change the orientation as you like. Then press 'accept'.
  
• After you get the image in the photoshop, save the file as photoshop and then rescale the size by pressing the 'Image'

WE could not do the first task such as scan with the descreen on and off. Therefore, we did the second task straight away.

The highest resolution would be best for web, print and presentations for fashion. It is because, the smaller it has, the more rough and undetail we would see when we zoom it. For example, let's take a look at the image with 72 dpi, 150 dpi and 300 dpi below.

• This is the sample fabric that i scanned with 72 dpi. The rough texture of the fabric could be seen even though from far away, it still looks fabulous.

4. This is taken with 150 dpi(left). Although it is better, however, when it is compared to the image with 300 dpi ( the right), the quality can be seen. You could try to zoom it and see which image that provides the best details.
   
   
   This is the DDS drawing that i made, i scanned it with 300 dpi and with non sharpening to avoid the messy lines that is produced by the pen.

Narumi-Table ware

I just saw some collection of Japanese tableware brand, Narumi. This is considered to be the most beautiful tableware produced in Japan. It has such a great design, features which are so delicately created and it is also stylish. Beside the colour, red and black, it also offers various colour for instance mocca, or white with cherry blossom pattern.

I love the pattern of the plate, it is cute yet elegant on white when using it for buffet. I think it really has Japanese style.

THis bowl has such a great feature. Instead of simple normal bowl, it has a shape like a leaf with wide edge.

Moshe Safdie-Marina Bay Sands, Singapore

"The Marina Bay Sands, in Singapore, is an exhibition / meeting / auditorium / leisure / shopping / hotel complex [really, its probably even more than all that] commissioned by the Las Vegas Sands for a [giant] plot on the ever-evolving Marina Bay."

I have been checking on several architecture building in websites and magazine. There is this magazine that i saw, and it has such awesome design and building in Singapore. Then i check it, i saw this image of 'Marina Bay' and i love it how it is like an icon of SIngapore. It is massive, including Therefore, i might use this for the concept of Archetectonic for my next assessment.

This image is also in SIngapore, and i think it has such a great design as it is going to be on the leading edge of green design.

I also might consider this to be used for my next project.

This is the new brand that has appeared in Indonesia, Benten. The name Benten has a meaning of the only Goddess in the Japanese Seven Lucky Gods. She represents love, beauty and fine arts. Another definition of Benten, is the Queen of the Sea who often mount on a dragon. Benten was founded not too long ago, in early June 2007. They have more focused on creating evening gowns and cocktail dresses. They design a lot of beautiful designs with a lot of flowing material to match the concept of Benten, 'Goddess'. It is seen in some of the garment in the first and second image above. The soft pale transculent colour and loose soft material have feminine elements. The hair accesorries represent arts and modern women's style. It is unique yet it also gives powerful atmosphere.
