this is my topic I’m going to talk about
the story about design and Ilocos plays
and how these together they influence
each other and improve each other now
look at this when we talk about design
what is design cement to you design is
not just a building with article beauty
plastic things it actually is the tool
putting things in order to gather
systematic wheel like you see there’s a
reputation lying when you see this Cal
stick what does it mean today I’m going
to tell you that is the what is a man
going to do in my previous project I
will choose the one example about loca
please when we talk about design city it
seems to be has a privilege to enjoy all
the design culture shopping mall fitness
center a lot of the sports facility now
this is the project to make a design
access to the ruler place on small town
or local place to everyone to me a good
design should be enjoyed by everyone
this is a project located in the panko
island a para a small island situated in
the West cause of the Malaysia it has
the multiple perception to the different
when you go girl it well panko island
most the spot coming to you is all the
tourists poor uncle ow
damn allow and you go in again it’s a
lot of the other resort and the hotel
boutique hotel you’ve come out to talk
to you this is the first cup to you and
and all located or focused in the west
of the Hong Kong Island why is that
because of the beautiful beige this is a
picture took my me a good place for
holiday short escape from the city from
the Tao and also it means that a good
place for tourism development okay
that’s why the West always capture a lot
of the Capitals
investment and all this capital invest
in the tourism such industry from the
budget hotel to the five-star resort
landscape design luxurious the
restaurant spot facility a lot of job
creep to the architect landscape
architect designer interior design
graphic designer or this visual but I
can tell you that all these design
products were not really and joined by
the local people because you need to pay
to go inside right well actually the
first impression if you take a boat from
l’amour which is the one way you can
assess into panco island once come to
you the first Easter fishing visually
village it has been there for at least
hundred years before the tourists the
industrial develop in the West you’ll
see all these fishing hearts bowled
fisherman’s repairing the the the net
fishy smell someone’s not like it
stingy now I want to take a closer look
for the West to lollipop
right it used to be all these that you
can’t accept it I think it’s just that
twenty years ago you can access into
there is the road that is around to the
island so one of the now that new
tourist spot on the West a full of the
budget hotel gas house very good for the
local economics yeah good for the local
people but I can tell you that actually
it’s only in there like a tourism right
local called is t’lani par as the coral
bay literally used to be a lot of the
coral reef okay now the Palladium look
at this is a big Palau
and this Apollo game it’s just a 400
meter away from the main island what I
want to tell you and I want to show you
some interesting activity a part of the
sport activity the CFD like in all those
the beach this is the pool again stand
from the main island look through that
interesting activity cross the sea in
the beginning of the Chinese Lunar New
Year every times the lower tax rover
ties you can walk the cross and then
after a few hours the rights back if you
can come back you have to swim back or
you have to take both alright
in few hours this is the natural
phenomena that happen in the coastline
when you cross you see other sea animals
see bait Minda see were caught at the
star see plans but now because of the
t’lani pas being developed for the
tourists tourism more tourism or visitor
crossing and actually what you what what
going costing them ecstasy bait right
now I want to show you how what is the
same view which is the from the main
island but it was 240 years back I took
this from the local coffee shop for of
the coral reef is a fan of the paradise
for the oldest diver to enjoy the
underwater sea the underwater world now
I am the lecturer from the architecture
school I was thinking about I mean I get
an impact on on this kind when I see the
comparison I’m thinking about how to use
the design to address this issue my
position in the design institution give
me an opportunity to assess moderns
resources designed for me is part of the
design resources a lot of the idea
creative talents or gather in like a
modern city now just out the issue of
the marine environmental issue in panco
island the the look so-called local
resources is a value to my design
institution or to my project I’ll talk
about to start out a small design
project what I can do an exhibition why
I say that because exhibition can tell
the story
it’s an irritation it’s put some people
when you when you when you visit an
exhibition you actually suspend they
create something that in that moment and
then you go through the story so I want
to deliver a message of the coral reef
raise the awareness to the local the how
they too can actually protect their
their own place
I was lastly lucky enough there’s one
local name as mr. B
he had a working space with offer me for
the initiate my project this space used
to be rented out in the for the
very type of the tendons from tongyoung
restorin like this one phone shop
boutique shop kind of that in the
different time and then there is the
like there one and one and one here and
there and now it’s even vacant for
almost a year and the owner is not going
to seeking and others new tenants he
want to take it back and operate himself
and he got a dream that to create a
place for the local and that is how we
come together right so back to the
school I start out this I started the
exhibition then I said in the warranty
of project instead of the school
assignment so I get all the warranty
because when the school assignment I
know in the in the student they only
work for the grid or the credit but this
is without credit I lucky enough decide
this is the student that are to work
with me that is the things that is that
you start to connect the institution to
a place that is the lack of the
resources in terms of the creativity
idea right set out the traveling studio
studio we always say it in the classroom
in the campuses but to set up the travel
studio is a good the function is there
is that you can access to the local
resources get into the local people
easily you get the face of a contacts so
that is how that islam i wanted to sit
out this for about a week or modern a
week like thirteen days against owner
house become the Traverse studio and the
workshop for our exhibitions project
soon after second days a friend of the
owner mr. tan is this one he showed the
interest of course he the owner is
telling him that he spread out the news
as well so
he mr. Donaghy actually has the
experience that to replan a coral reef
from in his the small fishing hut
actually it’s very easy it just take I
mean clear out the the rubbish and then
let the Sun to Sun I mean to get into
the organism of the in under the water
and then does coloring actually is grow
within a six month you show me all this
is the coral reef when the low tide I
took the photo for this on the other it
is another local they squeak ins into
other Traverse to do traveling studio
and show us terrorist is that many
things to show us and to tell to to and
wonder to to get the student to his
house and he showed that this is that
collection of the histor dry and dates
Cora you keep on telling us that is the
DC is not the real one it’s not he
ticket and collecting when he actually
is diary then you kid collected so and
tell a lot of the past story about the
teller nipa the coral reef I start to
follow the traveling Steudle class to
create the interaction between the local
and designer which is of order design
student after working with the few day
with the local we finally come out a
team sea flower if you know how to read
Chinese rebloom means the flower in
bloom so actually this is how the local
they call coral reef in the dialect
Hokkien okay heigh-ho
so that is how we come in spirit theme
and also the leaf that design you can
see that is the origami that is actually
putting out and like a flower right so
local start to participate in the design
process all this one designer is lit the
process now this is the local
participation another outcome the
collaboration between the local and the
designer graphic visual remember the
start of mr. tunt
that all those the experiences so that
is the visual content input I mean
information input contribute by inspired
by the local vision within the region
because of we are the designer we can
transform all this information into the
good graphic right and that’s why means
that the exhibition can tell the story
so now the designer still not neatly the
project now back to the back vacant
space what can you do after finalizing
the vision of the exhibition contents we
the space actually when we clear out
from the artist pressure on a lot of the
mouse disgusting even don’t sneak yeah
so this is the plan if you’re in the
from the architecture background this is
a top this is a plan this is the
elevation we have no budget on the on
this exhibition so we try to search for
the local material arrange it for
example you see all this is the neck
fishing net all this bucket from the
other local vendor solely honestly zero
budget to certain extent owner actually
giving us quite entire space instead of
the coal here this is an exhibition
space for us to design we actually got
the opportunity to design the front
portion which is we can come out the
small eatery area another event space
and maybe for the future expansion and
because of the local transportation is
using the bicycle and the motorcycle so
that we have like a packing a real and
we remainder this area for the owner
which is a we had been offered for the
travelling studio when we come to the
setting up the periods all the local
material fishing nets backwards and you
can see over here been get ready we’ll
get ready by the local
the owner so we don’t need to bother I
mean to worry about all those things
yeah I think after a week we’re actually
getting a bonding with Tamra Dave if the
local including the early collection by
the just out early
the Drake coral reef and Caesar to
promote the exhibition to the local we
come up a to poster spread around the
islands in a kopitiam jetty or the sharp
we try to tell the past and the present
of course this is not the real this is
the jetty the jetty and then because we
are the designer we know how to put
things together and then so imagine that
right the exciting moment now panko
Island pasty were 2004 14th the
organizer come to us they won our
project to be part of the program this
is I think that is our expectation that
because we started is the way our own
right so being part of the festival we
got a free promotion from the radio from
the media from the news people video and
those thing of course they drew a lot of
the visitor both from a local and
tourist and also we open till quite late
night until 1:00 a.m. because the good
respond by the local view coming because
it’s a local place so once that if a we
have to follow the times right so it’s
not like in the city got really like a 8
to 10 or 6a p.m. things like that
explains we want remember this one has a
small eatery space so the owner had he
had got that interest in making the
coffee is the for the police private one
now is just take it out and serve a
special called coffee to the owner a to
the by the owner to the law local people
I mean during the exhibition periods and
this is his mom and somehow sometimes
small also have the free like okra NASA
in the bound of a girl yeah so
transformation of the ADIZ empty space
is now getting to the exhibition area
and also come to the this a small eatery
space it had brought in a new experience
to the local because I think this is the
first time maturity for the look instead
of the copy tiem or the traditional
things after the fasting were the space
continuous F has served as the gathering
space to the local people especially for
the young people too young lady
interested to take over the space
upgrade this must play into a proper
open cafe and the food menu such as
introduce the food menu such as the
pizza after they took over this place
these both the young lady actually take
extra mouths to tease please photography
they organize the photographic
exhibitions and also new reading corner
now you can see the local is it take
ownership to manage the space this is
also part of the vision of the owner if
you want to create a platform for the
local people they want to stay the local
people in the island right so at the
same time the owner also initiate the ad
program giving a short stay to the
artist and they exchange the artwork
that is advocate the local environmental
issue so according to owner this is
inspired by our exhibition the ripple
exhibition as well now the space is now
is the new hot spot for the local even
the days are getting tonight yeah so
when you google it lot four zero zero
for now it’s come up to you not just
about the in the resort on the west so
it’s a new place I was thought that it’s
only for the young people but you can
see the old folks actually make use of
the free in their everyday life a
grandpa and the kids as well a family
bonding place following years again 2015
the entire space was again dominate by
the festival panco le festival now the
space turn into the Performing space
exhibition both launching even now the
space is cultural exchange Center
explained as well now return to local
the are local they are now taking
ownership and manage it
another influence of the rebloom the few
young men’s the make use of this place
spread out the idea of the recycling the
use this place is a collecting point so
and other things that you find out the
place there is to spread a good idea for
the better living by the local I’m happy
to see the project that is a from the
personal initiative that become a
community place I draw this after two
years is because I’m happy to see the
audit transformation there from the
local and then how this universal form
means well II order from the modern into
the traditionals pill please so this is
how the story bring together the design
and the local place to integrate both
modern and traditional resources both
side actually benefit a sustainable
development project to me this project
is not just about making cafe exhibition
area or community place it is a social
innovation project so a project focus on
the social impact instead of the visual impact thank you very much
