So on the glorious Tuesday, 14th August 2012, we were placed into group of 6s, and i was with the fantastic Zue, Aina, Li Wei, Priya, and a new friend, K!! Ms Lisa showed us some slides with photos of some awesome furnitures made of reused and recycled items. I must say most of the work on the slide was absolutely mindblowing. I mean really, the creativity of some people, is outstanding!
Well, anyway. So our first project is to pick a particular furniture and discuss on how to actually create it with recycled and reuseable items, even scraps are welcomed!
(Priya hard at work, snapping all the moments,
Aina jotting down everything,
me, thinking hard)
Priya had suggested we make a lamp using tin can, and from there, one thing led to another. Soon enough, we were overflowing with different and unique ideas for the project. K had also suggested a brilliant idea of our project being a multi-purpose furniture. While at the topic, Zue had also mentioned about turning a small fridge into a bookshelf. After discussing the possibility of it being our project, Aina then mentioned of this old television that her grandmother had been debating on whether to sell or to throw it away as it was just eating up space at her home.

As a result of everyone's contribution, we finally decided on the most brilliant idea ever, a bookshelf, built on the insides of an old television. And the best part, we can keep on adding new things to the idea, so it'll be a really environmental-friendly furniture. With this ingenius idea, we'll have to pour our heart and soul into the project as we have a timespan of only 3 weeks.
All i can say for the time being is,
Things are going to get interesting.
