Love your work, make everyday an Adventure day

"Love your work and you'll never have to work everyday in your life" they say. So does this mean i'm enjoying my work? No, not really, not that much, maybe.

I'm in an interior design company, well i'm supposed to be the draftsman here but since my boss is asking me to do works beyond the "draftsman" work, i'm starting to learn, explore, and discover a lot of things in the field of interior design.

Going out is probably one of the things that will never leave my schedule of the week. Whenever there's a new project that needs furniture, accessories, and fabrics, i'm the one always going out for the "searching adventure". Knowing the weather in Qatar, sometimes it makes me hate this work; but meeting people that will entertain you along the way and will patiently show you their new collections makes my heart happy.

I love seeing unique stuffs of different genres of design style. I love discovering stories of every Persian rugs i will be bringing in the office. As my boss says, "the client wants their rugs' history". 

So how cool is that?

And now excuse my chubby cheeks :p This was one of the favorite places i've been to; the Katara Cultural village.
In here you will find painting exhibits with different price range.

Japanese Restaurant: Industrial Style

The first thing i noticed upon entering the restaurant? this huge chandelier! It's so big that we started thinking about how much this might cost. :p

The chandelier was hanged in the center of the road side part of the restaurant
where the ceiling height is around 4.00 meters high or more.

You know, when you design and select the materials that you're going to use, you always consider its price. The chandelier caught my attention because it's really huge, nonetheless i didn't like it that much. I just thought it was kind of lost with the whole design idea. 

I chose to sit near the big curtain wall, the more natural light i see, the more relaxed i get. The red bricks that are covering the whole area and the exposed pipes in some parts of the ceiling gives the feeling of "unfinished" design- which is the closest description of industrial design. 

 

The wood parquets matches just right with the walls. The furniture are more of comfortable rather than beautiful.

The place was soooo relaxing that i just wanted to sit all day and munch on the sushis they're serving. Their salmon and shrimp with vegetable salad is really good anyway.

This was actually one of the most relaxing day i had since arriving august last year. Can't contain myself noticing the interior :p 

Looking forward to having more places to visit so that my not so popular blog can have at least a huge number of entries.
