Its been 3 months since I started working in my studio @ SPECTRA. I apologise for not updating everyone about life @ SPECTRA. Its a wonderful place to work not just because its close to HOME (within cycling distance, keke), its really close to nature. SPECTRA used to an old fire station located along Upper Bukit Timah Road. People who stayed in the West will know this place well, you cant missed it when travelling along this road to town.
I got myself a small little space (you wont believe what it was before I took this space). It was totally RAW when I took over. Just a roof and 3 walls, no window, no door and just cement flooring. Took me 2 weeks in the midst of crazy wedding season and overseas shoot. I’m happy to share my own little work space @ SPECTRA.
You cant miss my studio the moment you walk in from the entrance. This whole place is characterised by colourful blocks (former accomodation block for the firemen). Mine is situated at the Yellow Block (don’t ask why it is not purple …… ).
It was just patches of grasses when I took over. This garden took me 3 months and $$$$ to do up. Somehow this little garden attracted alot of attention. Some people mistook my place as a landscaping company …. LOL! Perhaps its a good biz opportunity in the future.
Trying to get creative with a “Rock” solid signage!
10 generations of small little red fish inside the clay bowl and it is not stopping.
Another view from the outside.
I kept a pair of love birds (Mudan) outside my studio. Meet Gugu and Kuku!
Close up view of Gugu (left) and Kuku (right) in their small little house.
Here’s the view from the inside of my studio. Its a small space (less than 200sqft). The walls are painted black leaving the brick textures as it is. The floor tiles are black with textures to match the wall. The far right corner is a expanded 2 seater sofa for my couples to sit (no, I dun sleep there), although it gets quite tempting especially after lunch. A 42″ plasma tv for slideshow viewing. Walls are filled with canvases, fine art prints and accolades.
Here’s the view of the other side. Basically my work space. More wall mounts of my fine art collection.
Close up view of my work space. The view of the outside is superb especially when it rains.
If you guys like to drop by for a drink or chit chat, you are most welcome!
