Inspiring Retail Design

24 Issey Miyake Hakata
by Moment (Hisaaki Hirawata & Tomohiro Watabe)

The 79-sq-m space is a ‘convenience store’ that sells a variety of Issey Miyake merchandise using a unique display system. Products are wrapped in transparent spheres, scattered throughout the shop. This not only reduces the need for hidden storage space, but also uses product colours to attract customers. 

‘The hanger rails and display cases are not essential for the store, but the packaging holds a key to the success of the store design because each item’s package colors build the store,’ explain Hisaaki Hirawata and Tomohiro Watabe.

Beautiful Beddings by UO

Since the US currency dropped, i started looking at the Urban Outfitter's site, particularly on their Apartment section. I love the stuff they have in there, but unfortunately most of them are not shipped to Malaysia. However, i have a thing for vintage bedding designs, and thinking of getting one of these (and yes they ship internationally!). Which one do u reckon would be the best?

I personally love the raw white timber flooring, wish i had that kinda of flooring in my room... . These beddings are pretty aren't they? The bottom left (floral paisley print ) is currently my first choice. I also like the second one on the top. haha so difficult to decide.

If anyone knows another website that i can buy pretty beddings like these, please let me know, that would be nice thank u.

Today my quest to complete 365 things to do in Kuala Lumpur is on a break. I will be back with more interesting (well, at least to me) random activities to do in KL. For now, im off to bed.

I found the website i made for my e-commerce course during my masters. might play with html more so that i can make a new layout for the blog. Pretty basic site as i only made this within 2 weeks , so much more improvements i can make. This was made in NVU, a html editor for MAC. I really miss making graphics for fun. The website features my resume, some e-commerce information, and in "website" link is my groupmate and i business online website on jewellery. Click on the image below and it will direct you to my site.

365 random things to do in Kuala Lumpur: No. 4, Petaling Street.

Place: Petaling Street, off Jalan H S LEE
Amount $$$ Spent: RM 18 for a bouquet of flowers.

Ok this is not a new place to introduce to people as Petaling Street is such a tourists-y place, so well known for their counterfeits. From Gucci, to Chanel to Cath Kidston, u name it. But i went to Petaling Street for one reason, to get some fresh flowers. Unfortunately, all the good flowers were gone (haha i should have known better, no one goes flower-buying late at night). But all in all, its a nice place to have a stroll around the market. Just be aware of ur wallets though :).

365 Random things to do in KL: No. 3, Chow kit Market

Place: Chow Kit Market
Amount $$$ Spent: RM 40 for a Modern Kaftan Top
And after walking the whole stretch of the market, i found myself something pretty, cost me RM 40. Who says u need to spend so much money to get beautiful things? Perhaps the beading is not as good, but i was still happy with the purchase.
