BridgeAvenir is the bridge that shapes the future, is the bridge that from the future. Avenir means “future” in French, BridgeAvenir holds the spirit of visionary, it is the spike of innovation. BridgeAvenir takes inspiration from the majestic Lamborghini Aventador, which silhouetted against the backdrop of a crafted line car spoiler. The aerodynamic design stimulates the actual reduction of wind force. The geometric shapes form the streamline with delicacy, it is futuristic yet pragmatic. We are present at the very beginning of the 21st century, with the future unknown, architectural marvellous can be preformed at the very
moment. Each peek outside the 21 windows sees a great possibility, and with the bridge being a linkage between the present and the near future. BridgeAvenir uses Black as the main colour, stripped with glowing mustard yellow light box as highlight. The black colour depicts its power, prestige, integrity and elegance while yellow stances for its intelligent and light of the future. As sustainability is the global trend in numerous of field, including design and architecture, BridgeAvenir would not hesitate to be a part of it. With the genius of Solar Roadways, BridgeAvenir is the perfect
place to include Eco-friendly technology. Solar panels become the surface of the road, it elevates to be more than a bridge, it is a spark from the future, the beginning of it. London has been the place for ultimate innovation, design is highly value in this city, contribute to some of the most brilliant ideas rise from the ground. We are all familiar with the song “London Bridge is Falling Down”, however, the London Bridge itself does not holds it value. For BridgeAvenir as a renovation of the existing London Bridge, it will quickly become an iconic bridge above River Thames along side the Tower Bridge, mingling the old with the new.
Framework The Design of BridgeAvenir The Bridge That Shapes The Future The Bridge That From The Future The crafted line stimulates a car spoiler that directs wind.
Original Draft
The aerodynamic design reduce wind force and lower vibration or pressure causes by wind.
21 small windows represents the 21st century, where lies infinite possibility. The ongoing light shines through the future to where we are heading.
BridgeAvenir takes inspiration from the Lamborghini Aventador. Geometric shapes form the streamline with delicacy, it is futuristic yet pragmatic.

London is the capital of England, and the place for innovation. London Bridge is famous for its song but not the bridge itself. The aim is to renew the bridge to make it become a new landmark along side the Tower Bridge.

“Bridge Avenir is an elegant realistic bridge structure that demonstrates strength of form. There has been a good consideration of layers and expressive referencing. The drawings were well-presented and demonstrated a thorough investigation of the concept.�

Paul Rand suggested design is a process which will develop another design. I believe plaything is a part of design process, one game trigger another, from another game(Mahjong), I transform to my play thing(Royal Flame). By another plaything, I started to play with it, without the original restriction, in which go down to the third part of the development model.
After various tests, it go down to the stage of user test. I have to find out whether there is or are any fundamental flaw in my game and design. They leave some comments after serval run down. I consider their thoughts seriously, and pin point some issues I must consider. Paul Rand suggested a game is fun due to its rules and restriction. I walk along this path to perfect my plaything.
As I begin to draft some idea of my plaything, I realise I can use Mahjong as bricks. Why bricks? Stevanne Auerbach, a child development expert, emphasises bricks and constructive toys have the highest play value.
R OYA L FL A M E
As soon as I have done all the design, I begin the process stage. I fill the gap of the Mahjong with glue, and painted on it to match with the colour tone that our group had previously set. Then, I pile the bricks up and tried to play with it. But thats not enough, bricks is a constructive toy, therefore, the best thing to counter it is a destructive toy. Here comes my home made catapult.
The last chapter of the tale The king got his ambition to conquer the world. “Destroy others! This is an order!” Royal Flame is a battle game involving multiple player. The idea was from the middle-age war between two castle. Players can enjoy the destruction with passion and soul. It’s both a mind game and physical game, player are required to develop a strategy plan for the battle. Who could be the last man standing? “THE ONE WHO WOULD CROWN THE KING”
P L AY T H I N G
I introduce a set of restriction and initiate some cards, to develop the strategy element in it. I create a manual to set up rules, that allowed players to exhibit their creativity for the best playing tactics, which increase the play value significantly. Finally, my plaything was born. I gather some of my friends to try out my game. They all loved it. It was really a huge success, and I enjoy the whole plaything making process. This is my Design.

DRINK DRIVING POSTER
Drinking is a social issue lasted for decade, with different kind of form. The worst of all is Drink Driving. It not only endangered the person who drink but passersby as well. My inspiration is Karma, what will drink driving leads you to. “If you Drink Drive, you Die.� I combine the resting place of a car and a person, and created this poster. It not only shows the coffin and the parking space, but as well as the alcohol drink by using the signature of a beer, the foam on top. It displayed 3 aspect with 2 element delivering 1 message, do not ,ever, drink and drive.
DRINK DRIVING POSTER
I select the element of “CHEERS”,”BONE”,”AUDI” and behind it written “TO THE HIGHWAY” highway means high speed road and heaven at the same time. That explain after drinking, you will get killed if you drive.
Poster of others involves lots of text element which I am not a big fan of it. Since it is a poster, it should be rather visual than literal. I put visual as a more important element in my poster. After researching, I sketched a number of thumbnails. My poster is inspired by these poster, I fuse them to join my poster. The line on the floor is the parking lot, and by bending it to form the shape of the beer cup, representing drink driving. I personally took the photo myself for retouching. I am now ready for my poster production. I took the white strips of the road as the outline of the parking lot, then I realised there are some leafs on the side of the road, I thought that could be the foam of the beer. Different roads texture can have different feeling, I photograph the, all to see which suits my poster best. I also have some real parking lot for reference, in order to produce the most realistic feeling of the poster. I hope my poster to be strong and powerful.
DRINK DRIVING POSTER
The outcome seems having a strong message and a clear delivery. Yet, I am not very satisfy, the orange colour of the beer doesn't fit with the roughly like garnet bitumen road. Therefore, I did some refining. I did some fine tuning of the right arm, as you can see the right arm are more thicker than before by duplicating the left arm to the right. And also, I did some adjustment on the position of the arm, making it look more balance in a symmetrical way. Beside fine tuning. I did tried to cancel out the bottom line to make it look more like a car park, but it can just simply describe as UGLY. Sometime less is more.

Carcrash in 3D is a CG animation. I‘ve learnt the use of Autodesk Maya, a 3D software. The building process is a long journey as ever single object has to built one by one, piece by piece. Seeing my own work is a very satisfy moment. The out come is brilliant, my effort had paid off.

After making the car model. I need to start making the scene setting and the surrounding object. I frame out the basic and add texture on it. After that, I add lighting and environment. Also, I edit the animation and the sound effect with Premier Pro.
UP AND RUNNING
Up and Running uses lavish lighting effect. This require me to think about the different colour tone for different environmental use. The light of the car’s headlight, street lamp, natural light from the sky etc. Then I need to set the camera in a position which capture the light nicely.

Rolavia is an underachiever, with no goal no passion. With his parents died at his early age, Rolavia disbelieve in love which he found himself lack of in years. His miserable life cause him not really a sociable person, resulting in his shyness. He believes he will not truly be happy until he met the one. For all those years of searching, yet, stars hasn't shine on him. Living alone, he stars developing a pessimistic personality.
