What do we do ?

Due to the new  division of LDA , an independent architecture unit ( as on Nov the unit now is working on 2 small scale development and 2 detached houses) , we have to reduce the frequency of update for this . The main update happens now bimonthly, however some insertion might happen every now and then within the 2 months period.

-LDA blog - Art is not always about abstraction, juxtaposition, intellectual.. so high it becomes unreachable. It can be simply a way of looking throgh life.Nov/Dec 07 "you are part of me.."..and see works by  Ng Buan Cher

LDA dream projects series: ( Architecture ?) Movement within a market
The video clip is a short sketchy (rather raw) exercise by studio LDA years ago to study/design movement within a then abandoned market/a factory building.(Existed in grid columns form with industry roof).We have in this case assumed the architecture without any form.(As such we said that the architecture is dead). All that we concerned then was the designed flow sequences, and the "quantum leap travel" that broke the designed flow sequences. Oct update - Enjoy! Check this video clip-

Home of Studio LDA is ...somewhere in a small town...

“ ...is a platform for promotion, collaboration, production of artists / designers and education of art and design..it is small in scale ( it's the only scale we can afford for now), but it can be big in a different way.”

“...it must be related to life...or it is meaningless.”

“Of course.”
