As you guys may be aware, I am finishing my college education in very sunny California. Ive been driving my new Fiesta for nearly 2 weeks now. The car is brilliant so far. Genuinely European look. De...
Because ACCD is lacking in dorms and student residences near the school, Ive been forced to look for a car to commute. This proved to be extremely difficult; most compact and economy cars are really ...
A quick project I did at an internship for educational purposes. Renders: RhinoGraphics: Photoshop
Yes, Mr Apple has bought a Google Nexus S. The Box is well, come on, its a complete rip-off of the iPhone 3Gs box. As the readers of this blog may know, the Nexus S is a "With Google" A...
Im in California to attend Art Center College of Design. I rented the Kia Soul for a few days while I was settling into my new home. The car is very handsome. Keep in mind that the Soul won a Red Dot...
More photos I never got to post from my recent trip to Tokyo. Last update of 2010 by the way! Im missing this city already. Super foggy in Roppongi. Didnt get to take an in-depth look at Roppongi but...
On the 18th, I had to honor to got to a Dieter Rams seminar. It was held near the Gyeongbokgung palace. The weather has been pretty miserable for the past few weeks in Seoul. It was hosted at Ol...
I went to Yeouido to take some panoramas a few days ago. Yeouido is Seouls (were back in Korea now) main business and investment banking district and home to some of Seouls finest skyscrapers. To be ...
Information signage in Tokyos subway terminals. SoftBanks mascot is too adorable. The subway system in Tokyo is quite complicated and backwards. Almost everything is more organized than Seoul here bu...
Taking off from Seoul, Korea. Seoul has two international airports, Incheon is the larger, newer one and Gimpo (shown here) is the smaller one. Picking up altitude. South of the Han River - where I h...

Went on a company dinner to a place called Platoon Kunsthalle. Seoul is obsessed about walking on the right, theres labeling on all the crosswalks, stairs and pretty much every public space. Platoon ...
I saw the Maserati GranTurismo on the way home the other day. The last time I saw this car was at last years Detroit Auto show. It was in black and I didnt care for it too much but something about th...
Insadong *was* the largest market of Korean antiques and artworks. It symbolized Korean culture, history and art but has been completely changed by capitalism. Instead of truly showing Koreas history...
Had a few beautiful days in the past week. However, Seoul is more often covered by a layer of fog and smog. Garosugil again. Something very photogenic about this place, everything is just placed perf...
I have recently discovered a small Korean case maker called, "Tridea". Their premium lineup is called "Scene Stealer" and certainly does steal the scene. Because someone will ask: I d...
Its quite interesting to see how monochromatic cars are in Korea. You can go back to my previous posts and youll find that 90% of cars are either white, silver or black. This is especially backward c...
I dont know exactly when but a few years ago, Korea switched to the Euro-style license plates; an excellent choice. The minimal design looks great on white cars. Its hard to believe that such a vibra...
Most people have probably heard of the recent artillery from North Korea. Things are peaceful in Seoul, lets keep it that way.
As I have promised, here are some photos of the awesome Japanese phones at the studio Im working at. These are all none functioning units though they are virtually unnoticeable from actual units...
The last few days has been quite foggy/misty. Mix that with pollution and a sunrise and you get some compelling photos. On the way to work. Does anyone else recognize this? Ive been seeing thes...
More photos from Seoul - these were taken on the same day as the last post. There are small reminiscences of the past throughout the city. Theyve started giving people carriage rides to tour the city...
Late fall in Seoul. Ive been seriously impressed by the Kia K5s design - will be released in the US as the Optima in 2011. Those machined wheels look incredible too. Its possibly Kias best design. It...
Off to Seoul! Flew with Korean Air, a nice change from West Jet. Put on a gdgt sticker on my phone. If you havent been to gdgt.com, give them a visit; the idea behind their website is quite interesti...
My sister bought me the AirPort Express for my birthday. Nothing much to say except that its ridiculously small. Ethernet, USB and audio jacks. The USB is only for a shared printer though, you ...
As some may have noticed, Im quite the fan of Incases products. I feel that they are one of the few electronics case/bag company that truly produces products with good design - without breaking the b...
Yesterday, I had a chance to take a look at the first generation iPhone - also known as the iPhone 2G. It was released in 2007 and was arguably the first smartphone to really seduce regular consumers...
