Totally creative !!!
Dat's all I can say when I first looked at her blog.
She creates chocolate designs, by request.
They're totally edible, and just take a look at the Packaging !!!!!
You'll definitely fall in love with the whole package.
It's the perfect one-of-a-kind gift.
The problem is of course, how can you eat such a cute artwork ? ;)
Here's SanggarSeni.com interview with Antya :
Your Chocolate designs and Packaging are awesome... Tell us, how did you end up "plunging" in the world of Chocolates ?
At first it was for fun, in High school usually girls give out chocolates to friends or boyfriends at Valentines. Well, I was one of those girls, rather than buying one, it'd more special to make your own.
So I started trying making my own chocolates, basically just melting, molding and wrapping them up in Aluminum foil.
At College, I made one for my bf, this time I started to also design the Packaging. and some of his friends saw it and asked if I could make one their special friends.
From there on, orders started coming, promotion was from word of mouth, and I started exploring more techniques on chocolate making and the packaging.
Design process & the Packaging !!! Tell us all about it :)
I usually sketch up something while talking to the clients, when I get the "OK", then I start designing it on the Computer, Adobe Illustrator mostly.
After printing them out, then I transform it into the Packaging :)
Initially I used to make the Chocolates first, them the packaging.... but it's kinda hard to get a packaging to fit my Chocolates, so now, it's the other way around.
Designers usually stay up late working
on projects, How about you ? :)
I stay up late a lot... coz I don't have enough time, If I had more time, I'd prefer not to stay up late, coz I get kinda tired hehehe..
Have you ever agreed on a price and it turns out that the whole thing cost way more ?
uhuh Dat happened before but that's okay, they're happy hehe and the design also becomes my portfolio, but now I'm more careful in predicting expenses for my next projects....
We saw you on TV !!! Tell us all about it
A friend of mine happens to work at O Channel and knows that I design chocolates, so I was offered to be a guest star in a show called "Cinta" hosted by Beckt Tumewu.
Not long after, I got another phone call to fill in a show "Profesi Jakarta" , I was extatic so I accepted the offer hehehe
The shoot took only 1 day, we started shooting from 11 am till 10pm.
It took longer than expected because the chocolate I made got broken because it was overheating due to the camera lightings hihiihihi.... and all the crew was patient enough to wait for me to fix it hiihhi....
You also design a T-shirt for ennea line di nanoninehouse.com That must have been fun !! Did you get involve in the whole process ?
Waaa....You stopped by my other blog ? thanx !!
I was offered to design, and I happen to know the owner of nanonine, at dat time, they needed a female designer, so I accepted the offer.
I was totally involve in the whole process, from cutting, shirt colour, material, deciding the theme, illustrating, to what kind of print process to use on the shirt.
Classic Question : What are your goals and How do you see yourself and your designs in the future ? :)
My goals ? Live happily with my loved ones ! :)
how i see myself and my design in the future? hmm..in the future I'd like to concentrate more in sculpture, chocolate can be one of the media,
I also want to own a chocolate shop, so I can be both artist and a businesswoman... hahaha
Lastly, Do you have anything to say to our friends who's starting out, but are somewhat afraid or dunno where to start ? :)
Don't take too much stuff into consideration and don't be afraid of this and that.... coz you might never start at all.
Just do what we like !
coz when we like it, we'll get into it more and will be happy doing it.
Everything dat's done whole heartedly will give good results :)
Thanx SanggarSeni.com for featuring my profile.
Cheers,
Antya
Thankx Antya and All the best to you :)
