The BIOSPHERE is the global sum of all ecosystems. It can also be called the zone of life on Earth. The BIOSPHERE is the global ecological system integrating all living beings and their relationships, including their interaction with the elements of lithosphere (land), hydrosphere (water) and atmosphere (air).
A very anticipating design carnival, 5Belas was held at Taylor's Lakeside Campus!
It has been absolutely fantabulous! Right fellow participants? Trust me, we are proud to grab in total nine awards back to the college. Remember the humongous cheers, screams, dances and joys?
The day started off with registration of participants and delegates. Each college was allocated to their own respective studio. Finally the day officially begun with the previews of short movie and montage.
See the crowd!
KBUIAD students excited enough to give the day a GO!
Assigned with lots of tasks to be accomplished, KBUIAD students were divided into few groups.
Lets roll over to see our proud achievements!
1. Short Movie
Aim to educate, this short movie is solely to project what would happen to our world if one day God has taken away electricity, food, water, and all the crucial living elements. At the end of the movie, it illustrates how beautiful our earth is.
Good job guys! Submitted short movie has proudly awarded the first place! You may view the video HERE
2. Montage.
Blissful! The best word to describe this montage design. The colours are to represent the multi-culture and races of the people. From monotone turning into a colourful scene, it brings out the message of without colours, the world wouldn't be wonderful. Watch the montage video HERE

4. Amazing Race
What would you think by looking at the pictures above? A big applause to this group! Of course in this racing competition, they were needed to run faster to accomplish each of the given task- Unlock the padlock, swallow gross pickles, archery and so on. That's the designers spirit!
5. Art Installation
BRAVO installation group! They have proudly won the third place.
6. Furniture Design
Congratulations again! A masterpiece worth to be awarded as the First Place in furniture category!
7. Mural Painting
Ahh yes.. organized by Nippon Paint, a group of approximately four to five person had to come out with a painting best describes the theme of Biosphere. Sweetly done, this piece is intended to show the contrast between organic and geometric. Entries from other colleges you may browse in the Nippon Paint Facebook Page. HERE
8. Lighting
Conceptualized by the concept of hope, this lighting is assembled with black bottles. The main intention of the usage of black is to show contrast between darkness and brightness. Very well collaborated, lighting spreads from the center to portray hopes in humankind and to lead themselves to the future. Another proud piece of art, awarded third place in the lighting category.
9. Fashion Show
Who says no? We have three beautiful models to sashay with pride that afternoon. As the requirement is to design costumes with recycled materials, they manipulated the black trash plastic, newspaper, papers, and the food covers!
Furthermore, yes.. we are in other hand so impressed by other excellent works from other competitors as well.
10. Performance
