My interests are in sustainability, and i love architecture and traveling. All of them kind of fits in quite nicely.

I'm trained in Architecture, but I can't draw, neither can I paint like the typical arty farty architect. Instead, I come from a geographer's background who dabbles in armchair physics. Weird, but everyone in my industry is kind of konky. It's strange, but sometimes, i prefer to do everything else BUT architecture.

I maintain a blog at akihan.blogspot.com

My latest project is an online store for toy cameras that is still very much work in progress at thetoycamerashop.blogspot.com

I currently hang out at a trophy shop. ander.com.sg
