 Today's post is a brief update about an award ceremony that I attended on 20th November at
 Seremban 2 Sales Gallery. IJM Land Designer Awards 2019 (iLDA 2019) is organized by
 IJM Land Berhad to encourage more young designers to step out of their comfort zone in
 pushing their creative boundaries and exploring more before settling in creative unique style.

Let's check it out!

 significantly in the developing industry of Malaysia. Through the years, IJM Land is honoured to

A total number of 116 concept entries were received, after five months of 
intense competition across Malaysia, IJM Land Designer Awards 2019 (iLDA 2019) 
came to an end after a fierce battle among the 116 contestants, two were shortlisted 
for the title of iLDA Best Young Interior Designer 2019.



Lee Jun Yan and Boon Zi Yang, were shortlisted by a panel of judges to execute their 
concept, ideas and plans for the competition themed with only a five week duration. From 
 an empty unit to ground work up to the detailing of the apartment, the two final contestants 
 went head-to-head to ensure that their concepts were to a tee at every corner of the apartment.



Kalista 2, a beautifully designed and freehold development located at IJM Land Bhd’s 
  Seremban 2 township in Negeri Sembilan. It consists of 522 units spread over two towers.

 Seremban 2 is IJM Land’s flagship development in Negeri Sembilan that spans over 3,800 
acres of freehold land, offering a variety of homes ranging from affordable apartments and 
 linked homes to luxury semi-detached houses and bungalows. A self-sustained township
offering a wide range of community friendly amenities and facilities, Seremban 2 also 
boasts community activities including family, festival events, half marathons, house build
programs and more. It is accessible via several highways like the Kuala Lumpur - Seremban
 Highway (PLUS), North - South Expressway Central Link (ELITE) and Kajang - Seremban

Before the award ceremony, we visited the Kalista 2 Executive Apartment at Seremban 2 
to check out the final work of both shortlisted contestants for the on-site voting.

We always love to check out showroom units as their interior do inspire. 
Both of the shortlisted contestants' units were located at opposite side. 
We went ahead to check out Lee Jun Yan's unit first, then Boon Zi Yang's unit after.
