INTERNSHIP SELECTED WORKS

Softwares used

Internship period helped me a lot in term of management, working as a team and producing a design that meets the client’s needs. I had involved in several projects during these period and most of them were residential projects such as Rumah Selangorku and Kuala Terengganu Golf Resort (KTGR) Bungalow.

Involved in the early design proposal phase of this project with several others in my team. During this phase, my task were to prepare drawings, 3D model and renderings. This project exposed and trained me to prepare a good design and rendering to stand out from the other competitor’s proposals.

KTGR Bungalow
