IDW Manifest Life with new headquarters and introducing the 10 Interior Design Scheme in 2023

Was lucky to be among the members of the media and influencers invited for the IDW Design Raya open house where the owners, IDr Hj. Lokman Hakim and IDr Hjh. Rabiatul Adawiyah presented their Top 10 Interior Design Scheme of 2023 while also launching their new State-of-the-Art Headquarters….

Throughout the 15 years in the industry, IDW had made multiple breakthroughs, and amongst them is of course by moving to a bigger building to accommodate their growing team….

The new headquarters is designed to reflect IDW’s commitment in helping and giving property owners in Malaysia better services.

IDW Design & Build is not only an interior design firm that focuses on craftmanted luxury designs, it also implements technology to its business processes and flows to enhance clients’ experience when building their dream home. 

IDW Design has also newly launched their IDW Design SuperApp, which would be the first interior design application in Malaysia. (https://application.idw.design/)

To celebrate the commencement of reaching a new milestone, IDW presented the 10 Interior Design Scheme of 2023 during the launch of the headquarters….

The modern office—that can fit up to 100 staff—is located at No. 2, 4 & 6, Jalan Pegaga A U12/A Seksyen U12, Desa Alam, 40170 Shah Alam, Selangor.

The inspiration for the 10 Interior Design Scheme of 2023 came during the Movement Control Order (MCO) where the founders of the company realized that Malaysians are now more open when it comes to designing their home. MCO allows people to be on social media more often, albeit exposing them to more bold interior design ideas; unlike the usual traditional designs. The concepts chosen will allow Malaysians to explore how to give more impact to their home, which will then boost the interior design industry in the country.

For the 10 Interior Design Scheme….

Maximalism

Maximalism is the art of more-is-more. This design style suits those who love highly saturated colours, ample accessories and bold gestures; a display of expansive collections, mixing and matching a variety of colours and patterns.

London Classic Contemporary

London Classic Contemporary style is curated, minimal and uncluttered. It is about refined elegance, where handcrafted, quality-made pieces are incorporated to create sophistication and to reflect your individual style. A style that suits a city workaholic.

 

Luxe

Lux interior design is over the top, luxurious, glamorous and fabulous; filled with custom made or hard-to-find pieces, finer materials and textures. It is for a person who is interested in craftsmanship and expensive textures of the finest quality.

Coastal

Coastal style emphasises lighter tones and embraces casual furnishings in neutral layers to create a cosy and calming ambience. Its reflected natural seaside elements—sand, seashells and sky—suit those who love the ocean.

Country

Country interior design is a casual and cosy decorating style that portrays a leisure country life. The most used elements are wood, brick and stone, along with other natural materials to create an inviting home. 

Indochine

Indochine is a blend of old nostalgia from Southeast Asia and the romantic beauty of France. This is the go-to choice for an aesthetic lover. An interior design combination from the East and the West that will add a timeless touch to modern homes.

Tropical

Tropical style focuses on the use of natural materials such as bamboo, rattan, teak and fabrics with leaf patterns. The colour palette is a splash of bright green, turquoise, hot pink and warm yellow. A go-to design for those who love the lushful tropical forest.

Parisian

Parisian interiors are a decorative style with an innate sense of romantic and elegance. It is an integration of classic and contemporary styles. The overall tones are muted, with timber floor and decorative wall panelling. A true love for a timeless feminine.

Middle East

Middle Eastern home interiors are known for their bold colours, luxurious furniture made with traditional elements and of course, arabesque patterns and designs. This design is for individuals who love the richness of cultures and elegance in one place.

Modern Minimalist

Modern minimalist is a design that combines sleek furniture, bare essentials and neutral colours to create an elegant yet uncluttered space. If you like effortless beauty with clean lines, this is the style for you. 

In conjunction, the newly renovated showroom will be officially open to the public for the first time. IDW does not only provide interior design services; it is a one stop center for your home.

 The IDW headquarters is definitely a sight to behold, comfortable for both staff and would be / current customers…

All of the services and items can be accessed and purchased through the IDW Design SuperApp that can be downloaded from your local application store.

The features in the SuperApp are: Interior Design & Architecture Services, Design Inspirations, Weekly Newsletter, Daily Interior Tips, and Market Hall where the furniture used in IDW’s interior design projects can be purchased with the tip of your fingers.

Psst… by the way, to commemorate the occasion, IDW is offering 20 Limited Exclusive Consultation Slot that you can book through their IDW Design SuperApp to build your dream home to life.

Shopee enables more sellers to grow their business with new Facebook Ads on Shopee Seller Centre

Shopee, the leading e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, announced that Facebook Ads is now officially available on Shopee Seller Centre across Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam, empowering the region’s largest community of over 20 million sellers with new tools to grow their businesses.

 

With 95% of Shopee users relying on Facebook and Instagram to discover new brands and products, this integration enables sellers to boost their online presence by tapping Facebook, Instagram and Audience Network channels to help drive traffic to their official Shopee stores. Facebook Ads also allows for greater personalisation of ads that are served based on users’ preferences and behaviours on the platform, thus promoting order conversion and maximising sales growth.

 

Facebook Ads on Shopee Seller Centre is part of Shopee’s ongoing commitment to support businesses of all sizes to scale online. Shopee Seller Centre offers a one-stop platform to help sellers manage their stores with ease, providing them with access to a full suite of marketing and data tools to create listings, run promotions and optimise their online business performance. They can now set up, launch and manage Facebook Ads campaigns easily and quickly through Shopee Seller Centre.

 

Kenneth Soh, Head of Marketing Campaigns at Shopee Malaysia said, “Establishing a partnership with Meta to launch Facebook Ads on Shopee Seller Centre will greatly impact our sellers positively and indeed is a game-changer for them. Now, our sellers can utilise and leverage an additional feature on our Seller Centre together with other Shopee marketing solutions to increase the visibility of their Shopee store and products to even more interested shoppers. They are now capable of extending their products' ads across other apps and websites thus increasing their customer base. We will continue to expand our ecosystem through more industry-leading partnerships such as our collaboration with Meta to continue supporting our sellers with more opportunities to scale and upskill digitally.”  

 

Facebook Ads with Shopee was first introduced in 2019 where only brands could run and manage campaigns through Facebook’s platform. Since then, many brands have scaled their business with it, resulting in an average of 5 times return on ad spend (ROAS) across all categories in the second half of 2021.  

 

Damian Kim, Country Director of Meta Singapore said, “It is more important than ever for businesses to reach and engage with customers that matter to them, especially as consumer shopping behaviours continue to change dramatically. Digital discovery remains crucial in driving demand and sales, and I am excited that the launch of Facebook Ads through the Shopee Seller Centre will be the enabling engine for thousands of sellers to have equitable and easier access to leverage Facebook Ads which will connect them with new customers and grow their businesses.”

 

Integrating Facebook Ads on Seller Centre allows for a simplified self-onboarding process that was designed to offer users a seamless campaign management process from start to end. Aside from shortening the time to launch a campaign via Seller Centre, sellers can conveniently top up and pay for ad credits without having to leave the platform. They can also get full visibility of their Facebook Ads campaign performance and be equipped with actionable insights to optimise results, alongside other ad campaigns.

Facebook Ads on Shopee Seller Centre is currently available to selected sellers across seven markets during this initial launch phase, and will be rolled out to more sellers in subsequent months.

Loving the Samsung Galaxy A33 5G (8GB/128GB) 6.4-inch Smartphone - Awesome Orange

I have been using my Samsung Galaxy A33 5G for slightly more than a month and I have to say that am so loving this smart phone….

Perfect for those looking for a good mid-range phone, the Samsung Galaxy A33 5G is a very capable little gadget with a host of tech and features packed inside. 

It is definitely worth the price, as the Samsung Galaxy A33 5G retails for RM1,499, and comes complete with internal size of 128GB and support of up to 1TB microSD slot…

The Samsung Galaxy A33 5G is a mid-sized phone, and is definitely a comfortable fit and just feels so light on your hand (and compared to my other phone, the iPhone which felt like a brick in comparison!!!)

The device comes has a camera bump slightly sticking out…. The camera seems unprotected, but it looks and feels robust enough to withstand everyday usage. 

The on/off button is placed together with the volume rocker on the right side of the phone…

Around the bottom side of the handset, you can find the power button and volume rocker, and there’s a USB-C port but no 3.5mm headphone audio jack.

The phone comes in a variety of black, white, peach or blue, and I am just loving the peach colour phone…

 When you switch on the device, the Super AMOLED display comes alive and wows with its 90Hz FHD+ main display resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels….  So if you like are like me and uses your smartphone to stream Netflix or Viu or such on the go, you’ll definitely appreciate this display. 

I am definitely impressed that Samsung managed to slim down the bezels to really thin bezels, a big upgrade from its previous iteration….

I also love the fact that the Samsung Galaxy A33 5G comes with a IP67 rating, meaning that it is dustproof and water resistant, and comes with a durable Corning Gorilla Glass 5 screen too…

After using the Samsung Galaxy A33 5G for about a month, I have had no issues or complaints… there is no lagging or any issues. Powered by an octa-core 2.4Ghz CPU processor, it handled my games and usage of apps pretty well. 

The camera on this phone is pretty good and was definitely one of the features that I looked out for being a soc med person and blogger…

The Samsung Galaxy A33 5G’s photography power is reasonably great for those of us TikTokers or Instagrammers… However if you are looking for more professional photography, then perhaps it might be a little inadequate …

The main camera is a 48MP one, and it comes with a 8MP ultrawide, 5MP macro and 2MP depth-sensing

If you are like me or my daughter and enjoy Snapchat fun filters, you will enjoy knowing the Samsung camera app offers loads of AR filters....

 

Psst... one of my favourite feature is also that you can erase someone or something from the photo you have taken... it's  pretty awesome really!!! Hahahah so no more worries about those photo bombers, just erase them away!!!

The battery pack is pretty lasting at 5,000mAh. Since I play around with two phones, my Samsung A33 5g phone battery practically last me up to 2 to 3 days...

Overall, I have to say that I am loving it. If you’re in the market for a mid-range  smartphone packed with all the latest tech and camera technology, then be sure to get the Samsung Galaxy A33 5G....

At the same time, Face of Malaysia Junior 2022 , is also open for the younger ones this year…

Amber Chia, founder and principal of Amber Chia Academy, will be the principal judge for the Face of Malaysia 2022 competition.

“Face of Malaysia is not only looking for exotic or unique faces but is also looking at multi-talented individuals with unique personalities that can represent our nation proudly,” said Chia who thanked Tan for having Amber Chia Academy as its collaborative partner.

The Face of Malaysia competition was open to Malaysians females 18-28 years old (168cm and above) and male 18-32 years old (175cm and above). 

And as for the Junior category, there are three age groups 5-8 years old (Junior), 9-12 years old (Pre-Teen) and 13-17 years old (Teen)

The children in the junior category will not be running for the international competition, but about 10 to 12 kid qualifiers will be sent to South Korea for a runway walk in a special fashion showcase….

Anyway, do look forward to the semi-finals which be staged in June…  The grand final is expected to be held somewhere in mid-July…

SLAÉ Cosmetics with Nature Inspiring Beauty anytime and everytime....

We women need makeup to improve our appearance…. Some of us can be addicted to makeup while others probably feel that they need to dress up well and wear nice makeup to boost their confidence…. Cos after all, we know very well that when we dress well and look great, it makes us feel good too and creates positive feelings….

A study somewhere says women need makeup for two main reasons; camouflage and seduction. Camouflage means hiding our negative feelings such as being anxious or insecure, while being seductive means feeling more attractive and confident…..

We all know that beautiful women can easily attract more attention and are normally more popular… and, like it or not, men justifies a woman’s personality based on her makeup… yes, it is true that each and every man probably have different opinion in defining attractive women but in the end, wearing makeup also leads to how men treat women…
