Mr. Martin: What is the similarity between lawyer, doctor, engineer, designer and farmer?

Student: Sir, they are all human... he! he!

Mr Martin: Yes, but... what I would like to share is they are all the same in term of helping others to solve problem and in order to do that they need knowledge and ideas. There is no right or wrong but only how effective the solutions are.

Ok, let us look at the few important elements in executions and ideas forming.

1) Expression of shape
2) Expression of material
3) Expression of colour
4) Expression of size

We are surrounded with elements that have hidden characteristics. Each mentioned elements above would form a better synergy in leveraging our ideas to the best level of design, so know your shape and make good use of it.

Expression of shape
Shapes are intimately shaping our “feeling” during our interaction with the given design.

4example >> Biting a piece of triangle cookies is different from ordinary shape cookies.

How you feel when you encounter organic shapes or geometrical shapes, may its’ be cards, logos or furniture?

We should look into selection of shape as one of our major decision-making during idea forming.

Dear, ID students please fully aware and spend time to discover more on how shape can be your “tone and language” of your ideas expression in interior design.

Even our choice of shape reviews our inner hidden characteristic, so do you think you are in a good shape? Ha! ha!
