CONCEPT

The sketch below explains how four programmings are located and scattered, forming a grid pattern like the existing’s spatial organization. It also explains how users perceive the site at a certain point. This sketch helps the design process to make an eye-catching and welcoming sense for the user from any angle business learning actively lifestyle touching experiencing social interaction & art industry gathering discussion learning 22 experiencing silent seeing touching gathering meeting discussion art industry learning passively touching silent observing

The sketch below shows the probability of the user’s circulation in the proposed massing placement. This sketch helps to design a major and minor pathway—also, a possible entry for the user to enter the massing.

The sketch below explains what the users see once they enter the massing. Therefore, a landscape or ‘view’ between the massings is important to create a buffer between massings that contribute to the user experience.

The following diagram shows the relationships of existing with proposed building massing. The placement of these programs considering the proximity between each other. Hopefully, with this placement, programming can become more integrated and blend to form a harmonious gradation.

The first photo explains the field of the existing building. The color purple implies an art-related sector, while orange implies a social sector. So, the strategy is to place the proposed program next to the existing sector. And bind them with the socially-art industry in the middle of them.

Placement of the proposed program next to the existing sector. And bind the whole separate program with the socially-art industry in the middle of the current complex. The colors indicate the hierarchy of the program

This section will discuss the design proposal that focuses on how the buildings implement the concept of responding to its regional climate. The idea came after the writer read a book called ‘Tropical Urban Regionalism Building in a Southeast Asian City’ that was written by Ken Yeang. In this section, we will also learn how the building will operate with integrated passive design, utility, and tectonics.
