This is one of my ongoing photography projects in university - I chose this location because of the socially, politically and industrially-significant impacts created during its time. It was one of the first large scale building structural failures to occur in Malaysian history and shook the entire building industry causing them to re-examine the fundamentals of building site, approvals and maintenance.

Today it carries this legacy (and that of dadah addicts). Lighting was difficult as my experience with indoor building photography is scarce.


1. Stairway entrance to Tower 3 overgrown with shrubs


2. Ground floor carpark space is riddled with the remains of drug activities


3. Clay-like earth constantly carpet the ground of the abandoned floors


4. Shell of its former glory?


5. Chernobyl-like industrial building elements.


6. Blood or red-paint?


7. 48 lives taken, but new life forms takes place


8. Ruins

There were 3 of us.. pretty creepy at first but i think shooting in the daytime (early noon) helps.

Any ideas on what kind of post work should be applied?

Hmm not that we were aware of! However if you look closely at the bottom of the "messy bedroom shot" (pic#14) u can find a vague smiley face

Thanks.. do agree that your PP reveals a more dramatic feel.. an almost cold one...

I'm no expert on blood stains.. but shouldn't dried blood be browned out? Anyway.. in our minds thinking that it was blood seems too cliche.. chances are some rempits or addicts were toying with red paint..
