Not many people can understand the amount of work involved in making a studio space. As for myself, it’s involved lots of planning, organising, learning and waiting. The very first stage was of course the planning. I do have ideas of how my studio space should look like and spent quite a bit of time designing the usage of space. However, as I moved into the organising stage, many ideas and designs needed to be changed. Contractors pointed out several weaknesses in my designs that I have to give up my some of thoughts in the end. There were the learning stage where contractors and friends gave down to earth advises and I am required to rethink about the design. It is followed by the waiting stage where the selves took three weeks to build, the renovation took another two weeks, the longest of all was the lightings, they took seven to eight weeks to complete because the uncle fitting them was on a six weeks vacation in China. So I had to work on the dim light condition over the period. But I am happy, I managed to get many things that I want, nevertheless, I am still work on my studio space.
