Everything was started since few days before they were qualified to become licensed LAM (Malaysian Board of Architect) part 2 Graduate Architect with master’s degree. Small social pocket society was co-founded and initiated by Amirul along with his mates, Shuern and Hidayat in year 2016. They initiated first few social public engagements with names, ‘Mersing-Art’ (a social collective oriented street art making headed by specific artist), ‘JBcityEX’ (an exhibition urban forum focusing in Johor Bahru city) and ‘PocketNest’ (a timber structure treehouse collectively builds by Architectural Students).

When their architectural education in continuous stagnant mode due to their national policy constraint, it doesn’t stop them to explore. Thus, upon graduating in 2016, Amirul, Hidayat and Shuern decided to bring out small intimate architectural works to a coffee house and expose it to publics. City Hall, Tourist, International Academia, Corporate started to give us fruitful feedbacks endlessly, and that’s how their life begin along with various public funding for Art Installation and Street Art. They are now Universiti Teknologi Malaysia architect’s alumni, but they are more than just a troupe of Architects.
