Gambar
 Ir. A. Chandra Meutia, pendiri sekaligus Direktur PT Chateda Toys, sempat terkagum-kagum pada seorang berusia lima tahun yang merekayasa bentuk masjid dari permainan balok produksinya. “Anak seusia itu berimajinasi membangunnya ditepian pantai sehingga lengkap dengan bangunan penahan ombak,”katanya sambal tertawa. “Ini belum pernah kami bayangkan sebelumnya,” lanjutnya. Yang juga membuatnya kagum adalah anak seusia itu bisa mewujudkan imajinasinya hanya dengan mainan balok yang ada, “Tanpa perlu mengambil mainan balok milik adiknya,” jelasnya. Sejak dari awal percakapan dengan Redaksi WoodNews Indonesia, Ia selalu menekankan bagaimana pentingnya membangun critical thinking dari usia dini. Terutama “Itu harus dibangun sejak dini dengan pembelajaran dan pendampingan orang tua atau guru dengan benar dan baik,” katanya. “Dengan benar, baru baik,” tekannya berulang. Kesemua itu berawal dari tekadnya untuk mendidik anak tunggalnya, sehingga ia memilih berhenti dari kerja arsitektur interior

Art Reframed by Tristan Wong

Tristan Wong's use of timber creates an inclusive art experience in James Makin's Collingwood gallery. The archetypal art gallery, with expanses of white, square set walls may often feel somewhat institutional, rather than inclusive and cultural. This was precisely the type of experience that renowned gallery owner James Makin wanted to avoid when he opened his new exhibition space in Islington Street in Collingwood, Melbourne. The brief to architect Tristan Wong was for a space that challenged the seriousness and sterility of the gallery stereotype. Makin wanted to provide customers with the chance to explore and discover art in an environment which was both inviting and intriguing. Wong's design is a counterpoint to art gallery conventions, using blackened and curved timber to create a space that is dramatic, textural and tactile. Entering through a sliding, black stained hardwood door, visitors are guided past a 4.5-metre high curved timber wall that narrows at its
