“It’s never been done this way.” “We have our Standard Operating Procedure to follow.” As small business owners, we often believe we are at the beck and call of larger companies. We feel compelled to follow their rules and meekly do so for many reasons. After all, they are the ones with huge pots of [...]

Being Malaysian in Malaysia
We’re celebrating Malaysia Day today. But what does Malaysia Day mean to all of us Malaysians who love this country? Is it just another holiday to add to our already growing list of festivities and celebrations, or is it a day for us to think – what it means to be who we say we [...]
James, Hong Kong & The Bear
Hong Kong was exciting and this time around, since we knew the districts quite well, we did a lot more leisurely exploring (besides taking in the Online Information Asia Pacific Conference on the 24th March).

Are You A Malaysian Inside?
Happy Malaysia Day! We have been busy with so many things these past few weeks that the weeks have gone by in a daze. First we were busy with redesigning our own website. As you can see the website is a lot fresher and we’ve updated quite a few sections. While we’ve been up to [...]

That’s where the cheap and good food is! We went to the Than Hsiang Temple earlier today to pay [...]

By now you would know that we at Redbox Studio love our food. It helps we live in Penang, the island famous for good Penang food. Food so good that friends who have moved to KL often salivate at the mere mention of their favourite Penang food stalls! It baffles most Caucasian friends of ours [...]
Shining Up The Pearl
Yesterday was such an eye-opener. We knew Gurney Drive was dirty but what sort of dirty, well, we didn’t know. We decided to join the Penang Government initiative on the beach and coastal clean-up for World Earth Day (which happens this Thursday 22 April and they’re going to plant mangrove trees then). This was a [...]

The God of Chairs
Want to salivate over a chair? Well. A good design does that you know. Makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Even gives you goosebumps. When we were in Hong Kong two weeks ago, we saw a good number of creative designs. Some were in the Hong Kong Museum of Art. Some were on [...]
