All of the professions mentioned above required same analytical and problem solving methodologies, their job scope define their income level thus stereotype many lame cultural products like you and me to believe in social classification.
We label profession and income level as the pre-determination of ones’ characteristic and attitudes; it is our attitude toward this thinking pattern that needs to be change.
I respect you not by your profession or income level but by your compassionate loving kindness towards others living being around us.
Putting aside all our materials belonging and social label, what is there to be cherish as a living soul?
In this never-ending endeavour of ambition and path seeking we always forget to thank someone for what they have done good to us. If one thing worth seeking in this life, let it be the seeking of contributions toward loving kindness to all living being.
Only when we are at last moment, we realize that nothing really matter except the joy from the love of what we have embrace to others.
As for those who seek a greener pasture and ambition, may you all success. But again what the * if it is back to the square one ... relax.
If you happen to meet with an obstacle, stay strong and accept it with an open heart, as all well will end well.

Green design disciplines.
Preview
This is not another posting about bio- journal it is about looking into design from the perspective of organic approaches to achieve sustainability result.
Why? Because technology and new culture have shorten the life span of design and designer should anticipate these new movement with ongoing evolution of organic approaches in their design decision.
In-view
With new media protocol and digitalisation of our execution, we really need to inject an organic steroid into our conceptual idea.
I would like to quote “LEGO” as an example of good toys concept that really serve it purpose of fun, educational and organically approach in their concept. Lego concept is built on the smaller component of the problem solving which I would like to label it as “Organic Design”. I do not need to elaborate more on how “LEGO” able to reach kids fantasy world. http://www.lego.com/en-US/products/default.aspx
Coming back to my discussion, how can we formulate an “Organic Design” in our ideas generating process?
To start with, you need to watch more “CSI” drama series, new season... (kidding).
It is about time for artists (designer) like us to migrate into another paradigm of scientific thinking but yet still maintain our “GUT feel and 6 sense”.
Conceptual building need “macro approach solving methodologies” where the “wholesome” is vital for functional and aesthetic addressing. Thus will limit us to look into micro context for metamorphic possibilities.
Having said that, what I really mean is we need to redefine our design up to a very micro level before mapping it to a larger picture.
For example, a furniture design should look into the smallest component (“cell” concept) contribution that enables the designer to shape or form it into variable possibilities rather than one static design or generic moulded design. As we not going into another planet, it is also important to look into “Green” approaches before embark into material and process decision.
*Any further discussion on this posted topic are welcome as I know no one going to read my Blog like reading a journal. Have a nice day.
