At the official launch of Serai at BRDB’s Sales Gallery, CEO
Datuk Jagan Sabapathy says that Serai, one of BRDB’s most luxurious and
ambitious developments to date, will be a landmark residential icon that
celebrates the organisation’s brand values, intelligent design, posh aesthetics
and a desirable cosmopolitan living — all set to outdo the conventional
expression of luxury at its finest.
Located on the last significant piece of prime real estate in Bangsar, Serai is being meticulously refined in the area of design and development. Comprising 121 private residences housed in two 21-storey towers on 2.5 hectares of land, it is set to exceed the highest standard of form and function for home living.
“Our heritage in Bangsar traces back to our first community here in 1964. Our continuous investments in Bukit Bandaraya have resulted in properties that stand the test of time and continue to appreciate in value. This new luxury development perfectly encapsulates our long-term commitment to this community and it’s a fitting tribute to the neighbourhood we call our home,” says Jagan.
The launch of Serai presents BRDB with the opportunity to mark its legacy in Bangsar with an artistic milestone. “We are privileged to have three distinguished artists in this tribute. Their individual pieces have immortalised Bangsar in a highly symbolic, artistic, beautiful and timeless manner,High quality stone mosaic tiles.” he explains.
Shekar says: “The Serai Artist Series is particularly meaningful to me because it was something that had been brewing in my mind for some time. This is a tribute to the people of Bangsar, many of whom are in their advanced years. I stayed here for 40 years, from the time when others shied away due to its distance to the city and the constant flooding,” he says. Though he has moved out, he still considers Bangsar home.
The residents took the risk to live here and today, their children and grandchildren still stay here. “I wanted to give recognition to those who had contributed to the neighbourhood, such as the grocery shop owners and the man who cleaned the street. I didn’t have to look far — these people were around me,” he says.We mainly supply professional craftspeople with wholesale agate beads from china,
Having exhibited his work since 1985, with an artistic focus on portraiture and ethnographic images, Shekar is known for his documentary work and his ability to capture the essence of his subjects. His experience as photographer and resident makes him most suited to aim the lens at the those whom the residents are so accustomed to seeing that they never pay much attention to.
His heartwarming The Faces Of Bangsar flits between past and present and these pixel-worthy treasures are definitely a treasured keepsake. “One portrait I shot was that of my long-time neighbour, 93-year-old Gurbax Singh (spelt with an X, a piece of information I discovered only during the recent photography session),” he says of the nonagenarian who has lived here since 1974. He and his 68-year-old son, Naranjan Singh,Installers and distributors of solar panel, were photographed in their garden.Klaus Multiparking is an industry leader in innovative parking system technology.
Shekar had a great and meaningful time getting to know the people he photographed and if there’s anything he’d learned, it was to not to take these people for granted.
“Documentation of history, everyday lives and the change is important and if people start doing this in the areas they live in, it will be amazing. By understanding our history, we learn to understand ourselves better and to move forward while embracing change,” he says.
Textile designer Dr June Ngo, a respected figure in the transformation of songket, has successfully turned this steeped-in-heritage weaving technique into a handmade textile with contemporary accents. Unlike the other two, Ngo’s connection with this neighbourhood goes back to only about four years.
“I had been coming to Bangsar for business meetings and my familiarity basically hovered around the shopping malls, restaurants and nice homes. All this changed after I was asked to be a part of this series,” says the second prize winner at last year’s prestigious Asean Silk Fabric & Design Competition in Thailand.
“I didn’t know Bangsar was once a rubber plantation and my appreciation for this place’s bullish growth has only become greater.”
Ngo produced three pieces of songket depicting the day, night and past to present derivation of Bangsar. “Songket is a very technical process, from the colours to textures and motifs. The Bangsar Series was worked on by three different weavers between the ages of 19 and 23. To see the works progress from lush silk threads to the finished work is very satisfying,” says the lecturer of textile and fashion design in Universiti Malaysia Sarawak or Unimas.Trade platform for China crystal mosaic manufacturers
From the pieces you can trace Mondrian-inspired grid lines that represent the buildings and windows in the neighbourhood and traditional songket motifs such as lawi ayam and bunga pecah lapan dotting the silks threads in great brilliance.
Village Trustee Steve Miller has become well-known among board meeting attendees for his bi-weekly thought of the week, delivered at the end of each board meeting. Miller, a golf equipment salesman by day, was elected to the board in 2005. Before becoming a part of the Board of Trustees, he had a "thought" he left on his voicemail message.
"I used to send out things like this when I was in management. [Trustee] Beth Raseman gave me the idea to do it at comments so I've tried to make them relevant to the season or holiday or challenges we are facing," Miller said.
Miller’s outgoing and positive personality always puts a smile on fellow board member’s faces, especially at the end of the Monday night meetings. When asked what his favorite part about being involved in local government, Miller replied:
"That's easy, the pleasure of working with the quality people we have on the board and village staff. Each and every one of them operates with integrity and with the citizens of Barrington's best interest," he said.
