Sejak berpindah semula ke Kota Tinggi, Johor. Saya mencari tempat yang kondusif untuk menyiapkan thesis saya dan mengambil keputusan untuk ke Perpustakaan Awam Kota Tinggi. Perpustakaan ini telah lama beroperasi. Sejak kecil lagi, perpustakaan awam ini menjadi salah satu tempat kegemaran saya - sebab pada saya banyak buku yang menarik. Kini, perpustakaan awam ini telahpun diberi wajah baru, suasana yang lebih selesa dan menarik untuk orang ramai datang untuk membaca buku, membuat rujukan, dan diskusi. Kemudahan wi-fi juga disediakan tetapi agak terhad. Pada pendapat saya, perpustakaan ini selesa, boleh jadi seperti co-working spaces.

AN/DS is currently redeveloping a 35 year old (or probably more!) terraced house unit at Kota Tinggi, Johor. The house sits at an interesection of a road junction and were originally a single storey three-bedroom courtyard house with a double volume living and courtyard area. However, the owner decided to utilise the double volume spaces into an attic and creating additional small scale two-bedrooms as the children grows up. At present, after the owners passing, the house continues to be occupied by the wife and her youngest daughter's small family of three, but the condition of the terraced unit requires a new makeover. With a very tight budget AN/DS will make use of the existing spaces and the attic expansion and new spatial arrangement to provide an improve quality of space, at a fraction of the cost.

The construction is expected to take place in the early August 2019. Continue to watch this space.
