Architecture 101

Nemu film bagus lagi dari Korea, judulnya Architecture 101. Genre filmnya romance, yang dibintangi oleh Uhm Tae-woong Han Ga-in, Lee Je-hoon, dan Suzy (Miss A). Pertama kali liat judulnya udah menarik perhatian sih, dan berharap lebih adakah film Korea yang judulnya jadi bakalan Landscape Architecture 101? Mungkin nanti bakal gw bikin kali ya?haha..

Salah satu hal yang paling gw suka dari film ini adalah alur maju-mundurnya (apa itu ya istilahnya lupa waktu pelajaran Bahasa Indonesia di SMA) yang rapi dan cukup jelas buat disimak. Jadi film ini menceritakan tentang seorang mahasiswa jurusan arsitektur bernama Lee Seung-min (Lee Je-hoon) yang menyukai seorang mahasiswi dari jurusan entah broadcast atau komunikasi (entah) bernama Yang Seo-yeon (Suzy). Jadi si cewe ini suka ikut kuliah di kelas arsitektur gitu,deh. Awalnay si cowo kira, cewe ini sengaja buat ikut kuliah arsitektur biar bisa deket sama senior cowonya yang paling terkenal di jurusan arsitektur karna kaya plus ganteng. Kedekatan Seung-min dan Seo-yeon kemudian berawal dari ketidaksengajaan mereka mengunjungi sebuah rumah kosong yang perlahan-lahan mulai ditata dengan baik oleh Seo-yeon jadi lebih rapi dan nyaman. Lewat rumah ini mereka jadi lebih sering  ngobrol, pedekate gitu juga,ahaha. Oh ya, Seo-yeon berasal dari Jeju, pulau terindah yang ada di semenanjung Korea. Setelah melalui berbagai hal seputar kisah cinta mereka yang lebih terlihat semacam HTSan itu pun harus berakhir karna sebuah kesalahpahaman. Mereka pun dipertemukan kembali setelah dewasa ketika Seo-yeon yang mengaku telah menikah ingin merenovasi rumah miliknya di pulau Jeju ke sebuah konsultan arsitektur tempat Seung-min bekerja. Dari sinilah kemudian kisah baru dan singkat seputar cinta mereka berkembang, meskipun harus kembali berakhir sedih karna Seung-min udah punya tunangan gitu. Nah, justru scene inilah yang diperlihatkan pertama kali setelah kemudian alurnya menjadi campuran.. Mungkin bakal terlalu panjang kali ya kalo gw coba ceritain lebih detil,jadi di sini bakal coba gw share foto-foto terkait film ini :) 

Berikut ini adalah beberapa spot dari rumah yang dibangun Seung-min untuk Seo-yeon. View langung ke arah laut dan itu bikin ngiler banget buat bisa punya rumah kayak gitu...Suka banget sama jendelanya dan pemilihan warna buat interior rumahnya, dan gw langsung ngebayangin pasti bakal indah banget pas musim gugur :D Waktu masih kuliah, Seung-min pernah bikin maket rumah impian Seo-yeon yang rencananya bakal dia hadiahin ke si cewe sambil mau nembak gitu, tapi sayang niatannya gagal soalnya Seung-min yang lagi nunggu di deket rumah Seo-yeon pas malem-malem, nggak sengaja ngeliat si cewe yang lagi mabuk, dianter pulang sama si cowo populer itu.

Beberapa adegan ketika mereka lagi bareng. Paling suka waktu mereka (versi muda) lagi main-main di atas rel kereta api, sayang gw ga dapet gambarnya yang jelas,haha. Sat hal yang bikin gw sedih adalah waktu Seo-yeon udah dewasa dan berharap cinta dia bisa kembali lagi kayak waktu masih kuliah dulu, harus dikubur dalem-dalem karna Seung-min udah punya tunangan yang bentar lagi bakal nikah. Menurut gw berharapnya banget gitu deh dan Han Ga-in yang sangat cantik itu cukup bagus mengekspresikannya.

Hot Spring Cottage (SU8+V-Ray+PhotoshopCS3)

Udah lama nggak posting hal-hal yang berbau lanskap, akhirnya coba iseng-iseng lagi bermain dengan Sketch Up 8 gw yang udah lama gw anggurin semenjak semester 7 beres. Yup, karna penelitian gw saat ini lebih berkaitan dengan studi keragaman dan fungsi ekologis pohon. 

Keisengan ini terinspirasi dari kawasan wisata yang ada di Garut, yaitu Cipanas sebagai pusat pemandian air panas yang bersumber dari Gunung Guntur. Jadi dibuatlah kompleks pondok-pondok untuk wisatawan yang ingin menginap di saat liburan untuk jangka waktu yang tidak terlalu lama. Pondok-pondok tersebut mengelilingi sebuah kolam air panas yang lebih diperuntukan untuk relaksasi, jadi pengunjung lebih memanfaatkan air panas yang ada di depan pondok mereka untuk bersantai dan sekedar merendam kaki di tengah suhu udara Cipanas yang cukup dingin. *dingin ga ya?lupaa,haha.. Ceritanya kolam air panas yang digunakan untuk berendam ada di bagian lain dari kompleks wisata ini. I miss my landscape design experience.. (-..-")

Plan Your Dream Trip To Korea!

Yeah! More chance to visit Korea :D
And here it is from the buzz Korea, your dream trip is now easier to be managed by K-Tour application.  Check the event detail [here].
Don't forget to also check my entry [here] ^^

Plan your dream trip to Korea. Your dream just might come true!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Fall Season : Love Story and Artperience

Having a fall season trip in South Korea has become my dream. Everything about love story and art can be found in this season. Trees with beautiful green, red, orange, and brown colors will give a warm sight seeing through walking along the street. Having a cup of coffee in an artful cafe, experiencing street art and crafts, and seeing a beautiful sunset with your love one.

So, I've made a plan with this K-Tour services to manage my fall season trip whenever I get a chance to visit South Korea. *pray hard

1st Day
Welcome to South Korea, through Incheon International Airport :D just wishing for a chance to meet any Hallyu stars here, kekeke. Of course, the first thing I will do here is taking my portrait with the airport background :p and updating my foursquare application, "Yeah, finally I'm in Korea!" *tears. Then I'll visit the Seoul Guest House to learn first many things about Korea. I'll be in Korea for several days, so I wish I can learn anything related first and hope for being usual with the Korean activities. I'm also going to visit the Namsan Tower to make a love padlock (hope with my love) then seeing Seoul's beautiful scenery through Namsan Cable Car.

2nd Day
I'm always wishing to have chance to study in Korea. Because of the fall season, my first choice is given to Yonsei University. I've ever heard that the autumn scenery in this university is very beautiful, and I guess that the students here are also well dressed with a great autumn fashion. In the afternoon, I choose to visit the very popular Han River. Having a walk and taking some photograph should be nice here while waiting for the sunset. After that, seeing the Cheonggyecheon Stream at night would be the best part for a closing trip in the 2nd day. I'm sure the scenery would be so romantic here at night, moreover with the autumn taste.

3rd Day
It's time for cultural and natural experience! Visiting the Biwon and Changdeokgung, next with the Bukchon Hanok village, and the Dream Forest. Though it may take a long time to spend the trip, but having this kind of experience in South Korea in autumn would be the best unforgettable part of the trip.

4th Day
Yay, It's time for artperience and shopping! I choose to visit Insadong, flea market at Hongdae, Ihwa Mural Village, and Trick Eye Museum. I really love art and craft, so I'll spend my money to buy some cute and artificial crafts in the street market, take some photographs for my own art reference, and having an artperinece to develop more idea for my future artworks. Pastel and autumn colors are my favorite. And of course...time for street food at night! Fulfill my hunger after shopping and sight seeing :9

5th Day
Again, taking some photographs for my own portrait with my love. Here I found some interesting and nice place to be used as photo background :D Hongade with the most artistic and popular area in Seoul and SamcheongDong. And of course, still with the autumn taste :D Then, the best part of the place to visit in town is the 1st Shop Coffee Prince..and the trip will be closed by having a sunset experience in the Haneul Park, the one with a romantic autumn scenery. I'll name my 5th day in South Korea with dating ^^

6th Day
Nami Island! My last day in South Korea will be ended by a visit to my most romantic place choice. The high trees, the falling leaves, riding a bicycle, and visiting some Winter Sonata spots. What an awesome final fall season trip in South Korea with love story and artperience theme.

Bring Me To Korea, Please

Jadi kesimpulannya, untuk yang ketiga kalinya gw gagal bisa pergi ke Korea gratis lewat kompetisi blog yang sepanjang tahun 2012 ini kira-kira udah ada 4 kompetisi yang diadain, dan 3 yang udah gw ikutin gagal semua,haha.. Sebelumnya ada kesempatan juga buat event Asia's Future Leaders 2012, tapi gw baru sempet bikin paspornya buat salah satu requirement utama aplikasi yang sampe sekarang pun belum keiisi selembar pun :'D Untungnya masih sampe taun 2017 masa berlakunya. Waktu itu mepet banget baru tau informasi kegiatannya, alhasil paspor udah pasti ga bakal bisa jadi lebih cepet. Gagal lewat kompetisi, akhirnya gw coba peruntungan lain lewat undian yang gw sendiri harus rela beli sebuah hair tonic rambut yang sebenernya penting ga penting. Dengan harganya itu setidaknya bisa gw pake buat tiga kali makan enak di kampus (-..-")

Kesannya sedih banget ya kalo udah kaya gini. Bukannya apa-apa..karna mau nggak mau sebentar lagi bakal hengkang dari kampus yang 'tercinta' ini. Jadi pasti bakal susah kalo udah mulai kerja nanti buat ikut kompetisi kaya gini dan kalau sampai akhirnya menang, haruskah pekerja baru minta cuti selama kira-kira satu minggu lamanya? Waktu masih aktif kuliah (sebelum jadi mahasiswa galau skripsi kaya sekarang), sebenernya ada dua kesempatan exchange satu semester buat ke Korea, satu ke daerah Gangwon-do, satunya lagi lupa di mana.. Tapi kesempatan yang pertama, impossible banget karna gw lagi ada kegiatan selama satu setengah bulan di Tegal, Jawa Tengah, sedangkan berkas-berkas masih ada di dalem kosan. Deadline pun ga bakal keburu sampe gw selesai kegiatan itu. Kedua, waktu itu gw baru tau H-2 dari temen, yang ini lebih oke karna kita cukup bayar ongkos PP pesawat, setidaknya lebih ringan daripada kesempatan exchange sebelumnya. Tapi karna waktu itu lagi event liburan, alhasil bisa dibilang susah buat ngontak dosen dan itu nggak banget deh pokoknya *speechless

Yup, rencana gw selanjutnya kalo sampe ga bisa sukses lewat jalan lomba atau peruntungan undian, rencana selanjutnya adalah nabung rutin setiap bulan mulai awal taun 2013 dan pergi ke Korea di taun 2016. Lama juga ya,haha..Tujuan gw ke sana bukan buat fangirl-ing ko, serius. 
I want to have a field trip for landscape architecture and the city's environmental development study in Korea through self discovering and experiencing!
Buat bisa ngunjungin officenya para KPOP star nomor sekian lah ya..bisa dibilang bonus lah. Gw pengen bisa secara langsung nikmatin pemandangan di Cheonggyecheon Stream sama Haneul Park di mana kedua tempat itu adalah dua dari beberapa proyek restorasi lingkungan yang udah dilakukan sama pemerintah Korea Selatan, and I've been so much curious for those places. Dua tempat itu deh yang paling bikin gw penasaran, sisanya yang pasti kaya kawasan-kawasan heritage, landmark kota, pusat pelajar semacam universitas dan area gaul mereka,haha, dan juga Nami Island tempat romantis yang pengen banget bisa gw datengin >.< That's why I do love Korea in autumn..

Oke, start to save the dream. Kalo ada kesempatan lagi bakal gw coba 'tumpah ruahkan' kembali mimpi itu,haha..

[ASIAN ON AIR PROGRAM] Things I Want To See in Korea

South Korea for me is such a beautiful country which has a strong spiritual feeling of history that is united with nature. This can’t even be separated though the country has been more populated and evolved within modernity. Seoul as a capital city of South Korea for example is surrounded by mountains and hills. It shows that how a philosophy of nature is very important to make a city stronger as it has been covered and protected by the natural fortresses. Beside, the city’s heritage also has an important role as a cultural richness. South Korea’s uniqueness have generated a harmony where the citizens of the country live, grow, and socializing. Of course, some of its beautiful places which have been shown trough the dramas has attracted me to come and discover the city’s beauty for an unforgettable experience.  

South Korea lately has been known worldwide through its ecological innovation and development towards becoming an eco city. Cheonggyecheon Stream and Haneul Park are two of any places I really want to visit because I’ve been so much curious with the beauty of these environmentally friendly and lovely places with many attractive things to see in the middle of the city. Cheonggyecheon Stream for example, I want to see various plants planted around the stream, the fountains, romantic spots, artificial lamps, the lanterns, and arts. There should be a magnificent scenery whenever see the stream at two different time, daytime and night. Another thing that would always remain me about this place is about its existence as a symbol of Seoul’s past, present, and tomorrow. I've once wrote my opinion about this river on my own blog. You can see it [here] and found its big transformation! But sorry for only using in Indonesian language :l. Beside, Haneul Park is also my favorite destination to visit. The park’s establishment as one of city’s environmental revitalization has caught my attention to directly see this pretty spectacular place. If trying to remain back, it was still becoming the nation’s largest uncontrolled landfill with garbage in Nanjido. The government has been truly succeeded to build and have this worth and nice place. What I do really want to see here are the wind-powered generators which produce electricity for lamps, the beautiful greeneries covered the land, the long paths, kites which are flown, creative site furniture design decorated the park, and the animals like rabbits and birds. Visiting the Haneul Park in autumn could be very lovely, and another thing that can’t be left to see is a sunset by enjoying its view from the peak.

After discovering the beauty of natural urban landscape with an environmentally friendly concept built in a city, I choose to find another place like the heritages. For me, visiting and seeing South Korea’s great heritage like ancient buildings and take some documentary from this is something like a must to do. The first place is Dongdaemun Gate as Seoul’s first welcoming landmark. Its historical story from the Joseon Dinasty has made me want to see directly this great gate. Beside, the Gyeongbokgung Palace is also my favorite one to see. Like the Dongdaemun Gate, this palace is also one of the Joseon Dinasty’s. Things I really want to see in this famous and most beautiful Palace in Seoul are the ancient buildings of course, the beautiful pond, the autumn trees, a cultural performance, and the mountains in the foreground and rear of the palace, like Mount Namsan and Mount Bugaksan. I’m sure that within the unity of this scenery, a magnificent historical landscape with a natural background will be so much attractive and peaceful. Still with the buildings, after discovering the Seoul city, I’m also interested to visit and see Hanok Village in Jeonju. I want to see how people who live in this traditional housing do their daily activities. Some of this best preserved living traditional village is also existed in a higher land, so that the scenery would be very great to see from the housing, like everywhere here can’t be separated by the unity of nature and historical value. An existence of the Hanok village surrounded with a modern city also looks so much impressive.

Museum is also an important place to visit, because I want see and know more about South Korea’s history, cultural things, and art works. My first favorite place is Teddy Bear Museum. Cute things like crafts and dolls are some of my favorites. There are many teddy bears with kinds of different outfits, and they must be very adorable. Not only the outfits, but also for the diorama settings and many of any well-known people which are imitated by the teddy bears. Beside the Teddy Bear Museum, I also want to visit Kimchi Museum. Here I really want to see various kinds of kimchi, the historical recipe, the traditional cookware like jar, the diorama, and historical story from any paintings and posters. After that, Sejong Art Center would be the next destination after the two museums. Here I want to see the arts exhibition like paintings or installations. I also wish for a chance to see some cultural performance like traditional dances and music. Move from the museums, I’m also interested to see Gwanghwamun Square where a statue of the great King Sejong and the great Naval Commander Lee Sun Sin exist. Not only the statue, but also there is a group of rhythmical fountains decorated the whole square. A historical, cultural and enjoyable moment will be such a theatrical scene to see.

The last thing I want to see is the Nami Island. Nami Island is very famous because of Winter Sonata drama. Of course, many romantic spots, views, and activities are existed there. First is the high trees lined on the road. Yes, I think this must be one of the most attractive thing here because it was a place where the main actor and actress rode a bicycle together as the most romantic scene. High trees mean covering and protecting, a straight road means a way towards a better life. With a couple who crosses alongside, an unforgettable moment discovering the Nami Island will always be remembered. I think landscape with greeneries in South Korea is very popular for the tourist attractive place to visit. This place has become one of my favorite to feel the nature and see whole of the beautiful and romantic scenery.

Natural and historical points are the most important things for me to take a look, discover, and feel the spiritual feeling whenever come to a new place like South Korea. Because for me, these two has become South Korea’s attractiveness and identity with all its treasure owned for the country’s uniqueness. So I think that’s all from me and I hope for a chance to once come to this beautiful country and see the magnificent scenery and unique things I have never seen before. 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Having a trip to South Korea has become my dream and passion. Though I've never been there, here I'll show several photos of my friends's trip to this country. I hope someday I will be the next person after them to go to South Korea ;) 

The first is Amzyella Bethlin Simamora. Here are some of her photo captured from South Korea. She got a chance to go there from a campus field trip with her friends when she was an exchange student in Malaysia. My favorite here is the Nami Island.

Different from the others, she got a chance to visit Goseokjong, the riverside pavilion. There is also Hantan River.She visited Paju as Korea's demilitarized zone (a boundary zone between South Korea and North Korea) and found an open field with dead animals for the vulture's feed. Here are some of her photos in Korea. She has so many experiences, so you can directly check her site [here].

Oke, beside the three above, there is also Yoni Elviandri Ar-Rajid with his experience who had a chance to come and see South Korea for Congress of Global Partnership for Young Women 2012. In these photos, it is shown that he had visited Sabaidee as a boundary zone between South Korea and North Korea with his friend and also the Duksung Women's University. The campus scenery must be very beautiful because of the mountainous background seen from its stadium.

Beside, there is Desty Dwi Sulistyowati who was also a part of Yoni and Agnissaa's group for the congress. I really like her photo surrounded by the ornamental plants in a nursery. This kind of place like the nurseries gonna be my next choice for the visit. Yeah, I also like ornamental plants and now I've become more curious to see various kinds of them which are grown in Korea. They must be beautiful! I think this nursery is also design in a lovely and romantic concept :3
