Our client turned his back on a corporate career to build treehouses on rented land in Johor. We strongly resonated with his rejection of the rat race, so we were happy to do the job on a voluntary basis. The result was a pure labour of love, which was very fun to complete. We designed and built a library for his rainforest community, always with the terrain in mind. For instance, books tend to spoil quickly in the jungle or become prey to monkeys, so we designed the library to address these specific challenges. We may not have been paid in cold, hard cash, but we got a much more valuable ROI: personal enrichment and camaraderie.
