Architecture must be provocative. Simplicity are exhilarating.

On contrary, we live in a complex world whilst rocketing digital advancements have enabled us to achieve ‘tasks’ effortlessly. We live in an era of the virtual where physical social interactions are kowtowing to Facebook. We live in a complex world that the significance of our physical space is gradually dissolving.

Let us revert to a simplistic mind; to restore a humanistic perspective towards architecture. The process of juxtaposing humanistic approach in architecture in this digital era is indeed a challenge, and this process of fusion becomes catalyst for our works, so as the tension between idealism and pragmatism becomes vehicle of our growth. It was through this vigorous process of design interrogation that we may achieve a minimalistic touch while reacting to the need of the society; touching both the ground that we build on and the culture that we sail on lightly and softly; allowing us to use intangible elements surrounding us to sculpt spaces.

I wish to share with you the journey of how our era and our fathers have taught us to rock-and-roll as minimalists on a complex stage.
