Abstract

The Ayer Muleh sculpture is an innovative and symbolic design that represents the School of Design (SDe), inspired by the traditional Ayer Muleh motif, which symbolizes continuity and adaptability. The sculpture features a spherical light, a magnetized surface for attaching notes, and integrated drawer compartments for storage. Unlike previous designs, it includes a button-operated light system instead of a sensor. The finishing incorporates elegant gold accents with a striking purple base to enhance its visual appeal. The design process involved thorough benchmarking, concept development, and the successful fabrication and testing of the prototype. This sculpture not only serves as a functional piece but also as an artistic representation of creative identity and thoughtful design innovation within the academic environment.
