1st Prize

NICHOLAS LIEW YUUNG

ABSTRACT IDEAS

This is San Fransokyo from “Big Hero 6” filmed in the year 2014, a hybrid city combined of San Francisco and Tokyo set in the not-too-distant future. Years before I started enrolled in architecture studies, I watched this movie and I was fascinated by the creative idea of combining Japanese and American architecture, landscaping and engineering skills creating the city's iconic amalgamation of American and Japanese culture portrayed in the movie. During the MCO period, I rewatched this movie and it reminded me of a lot of old times before I studied architecture and how I got into it…

JURY NOTES

Out of the box presentation; 'Sketching on the wall' with good clarity and architectural detailing that would require more skill, focus and dedication of work.

3rd Prize

NUR SABRINA BINTI ISTIHAT

ABSTRACT IDEAS

The title given for my artwork is 'Space' in which our room can be depicted as our own 'space' where ideas and inspirations may be generated. In this 'space', we could discover many possibilities by doing various of activities based on our interests such as painting, playing musical instruments or reading books which can be seen in this artwork. From the window, we can see a moon that portrays we can do so much that could be 'out of this world'. As an architecture student, I love to immerse in my own 'space' to explore more of myself.

Honorary Mention 1

FATIN NABILAH BINTI MOHAMAD YUSUF

ABSTRACT IDEAS

Having assignments does not make you crazy at home. Thank god for my "Happy pills". The falling water by Frank Lloyd Wright means the nature integrated with a building could develop emotional strength for the occupant. However, for ordinary people like me having good food and great acquaintance is what I need the most. "Happiness" is what everyone's goal but it is the person's choice of how to create it weather through materialistic approach or contentment through gratitude. For me, contentment comes from kindness. A personal bowl of noodles is nice but sharing it will be nicer.

Remarkable use of Artline marker with a unique sketch rendering technique and mixed media.

Honorary Mention 2

AHMAD AREIF HAKIMI BIN YUNUS

ABSTRACT IDEAS

Skyline is a post-covid concept. The concept is an airborne individual roller coaster concept. After the endemic has settled, transportation has changed to this concept where people social distance through this method, and this method ensures everybody who gets on have a 3m gap between the people on the skyhook in front of them. Thus ensuring social distancing in public.

Honorary Mention 3

SYAMIMI HARNI BINTI ZULKIFLI

ABSTRACT IDEAS

Covid-19 has imprisoned us all. We stay inside for the greater good. Extroverts can feel imprisoned the most, as they spend mostly outdoors. The camera represents the "vision" of the extrovert, and the screen display is their perspective. There is always an easy way out. Walk through the linear hallway, and go outside through the door. But Covid-19 is waiting for you, behind the bars that represent the wall. The bars are the only thing that protect us after all. We are all in this together, stay home and stay safe. Instead of sketching in 2D, 3D sketch makes it livelier, and works better for sense of perspective.
