I never been heard before about xBhp magazine or even bought the magazines. Until that time when someone sent me an email, we've made conversations for a week or two. He is a media journalist from xBhp magazine, he had excited in Morukai's blog especially custom motorcycle artworks. He meant all Bajaj Pulsar custom bikes that was edited and he would reviewed Morukai's blog in the magazine. I sent him final artwork images in a digital version.

These are my collection apparel design contributed to Pulsarian and most of these was t-shirts and vests. In processing the design, I always used both graphic softwares like Adobe Photoshop CS 6 and Adobe Illustrator on same version. To create graphics or clip arts, texture elements, and layouting design I used Illustrator.  When design layout was completed in Illustrator, I  switched to Photoshop to  combine and compose design with apparel images like blank t-shirt or vest and finalise it for display version. For publishing usually I sent in to vector version. Pulsarian Official Batik. Design by Morukai.  Pulsarian Bayonet Vest. Design by Morukai.  Pulsarian Squadron Vest.

Have you been there at Vancouver 2010 Winter Paralympics? I wasn't there too, but what I'd like to show was illustration and design which used in promotional events. These artworks was created and made by Vanoc's team design. First time I saw these illustration which was published on official website Vancouver 2010. I really like these artworks, because it was created in an impressive details, vibrant colours combination and textures. I never seen designs and illustrations like these which used for sport events, especially at the largest event olympic games. These are something new for people like me, or even generally. I loved the ideas to combined olympic sport elements in to designs. Please take a look at the below images. You'll find vibrant colours of blue, green and white also the variation colours too. See how the team designers created the images of sky clouds, forest landscapes and support elements. Also the clip art figures looks dynamic at performing sport...

Most people in Jakarta has spent their times longer on the roads. It is because fast population growth in the city. With population has increase every years and most of people works at central business and industries, the city start to beginning a traffic jam problems. These happened every day in the morning and evening rushed hours. Traffic jams in Jakarta just like in hell, people usually wake up at 5 am, entering traffics by 6 am, and arrives at office by 9 am. It has continue while getting back home. That's why people spent theirs 3 to 6 hours a day on the roads. How ironic is that? Yes, but it's like a habit to people lives in Jakarta.  Traffics in Jakarta has caused easy by damaged roads, people passed the red light, dysfunctional of traffic lights, people disobey the rules on roads, too many personal used cars / motorcycles, public transportations not operated normally and officers lose to maintain the traffics. Then how to changes people minds to ignored situations...

Being healthy is priceless. That should be the best quote for hospital at least until today. There's so many issues in Indonesia that people have a problem about medical hospital. Even when in critical situations or emergency, the hospital first rules is pushing patient or families to put their money first on deposit, then hospital can continue the medical treatments. Sadly but this is fact when poor people didn't have enough money to bought some medicine or medical treatments, hospital don't care. Money first, then let's see what is your problem is.

PLACE FOR ACTIVITY Jakarta famous with many venues, shopping mall, night clubs, bar and lounge, etc. The fact is, not every people in this city reach their happiness with this situation. So, why not to make something more useful and healthy? Imagine some place familiar like sport centre, museums, art gallery and many thing. People need a good interactions with each others, nature places is one of the solution, but Jakarta is far away from this location. We need place for better living and activities. This design submissions should be a solution for people that can't living and interact in a better way with their old way of life. We can find many venues like library, sport centre, office building, coffee shop, music studio, swimming pool, skatepark, playground, trees, etc. Design by Morukai.

This submission design was a part of Batikaholic online exhibition that I was joined a few times ago. The concept and idea of this design is to promote traditional local culture product such as Batik. The idea to promote Batik is a quite simply by create transit ad on transportation vehicles i.e. public and tourism bus. We can choose what pattern will use on transit ad. After the Batik pattern chosen, we can process it as a decal or paint directly to the bus. Then we have a bus covered in Batik pattern.  The benefits to the people in public is easy to reach the messages by those images, when driving on streets, stopping at traffic light, or during the trip to holiday destinations. People may aware on unusual design bus like Batik pattern. People start begin to capture the bus, publish to the internet, share on social media, etc. The important thing is, do we have a responsibility to keep and maintain Batik products as the traditional culture of Indonesia heritages? Batik patter...
