STRUCTURAL DIAGRAM VERTICAL CONNECTION

Because the unit is assembled on site, one is able to take away and combine multiple walls to create an open floor plan. In this case, the L shaped units are combined to create different sizes of spaces for public programs. The L shaped units above also create terraces and shared spaces above the roof of the public programs.

The lateral system uses self framing concrete shear walls. Walls are self supporting precast concrete . Roof act as oor for unit above.

Stackable Cup

Weijenberg. plt, Singapore

The concept derrived from creating a network of cups that would generate as an art piece as a collective. The need to incoprate urganomics opened opportunities to curve and bend the cup surface in a way that allowed the cups to stack vertically as well as horizontally.

Dimensions And Technical Drawing

Office door handle design + fabrication

Weijenberg plt, Singapore

For the purpose of the new office in Delta House, I was assigned to design the door handle on a pivating door. The lines of the design follow the curve of the hand allowing for ease and visual pleasure.

KS Stools

Weijenberg, Singapore

Playing with the idea of folding curves on metal the idea was derrived from how the material would bend outward and create a natural tension in certain areas to allow the design to optimise as a seating object.

This project was first tested with paper then transferred into grasshopper and fabricated in the factory with 5mm steel sheets.

Here are 4 iterations for the design’s joinery system. The challenge for this project was to create a foldable chair that would be simple to assemble on site.

The stools are also stackable and create an interesting patterend design wall or partitian.

NYC Public Library Grand Stairs

Stairs are a powerful urban artifact they offer circulation as well as a place to observe the urban environment.

The design project consists of two paird of stairs with varied functions: a public stair that connects the street to the NYC public library and a private stairs that connects the lobby area to the entrance to the library space.

The magenta shows the flow of circulation for both the private and public stairs. The public stairs has minor circulation arrows showing a more privatised path for people to enter around the main gathering space in the middle. This gathering platform also acts as a stage for street performers in order to incoporate urban life into the stairs itself.

The form of private stairs goes against the grain of its enrivonment. The interior of the public library is angular and monotonous the archtiectural response to this was a shape that did not conform to the angular room which draws attention to itself. The ciruclar form also creates an opportunity to view the lobby area and view the streets of NYC in a panaramic way.

Like the private stairs the public stairs incoporates various activities into its design. The raise of the steps converge at the end to create a raised floor for people to dangle their feet and observe the city. A platform is located in the middle for events and act was a meeting place. The steps vary in width creating a kind of rhythm throughout the public stairs. The narrower steps at the bottom encourage pedestrians to circulate whereas the thicker steps encourage the pedestrians to slow down.

On the other hand, the private stairs creates coiled up an intimate space at the center where a lounge is created for users to meet privately,

Children Furniture Designs

These designs were created with the user in mind. The animal themed designs encourage engaggement of the child with the product in a fun and charming way. Safety standards, aesthetics, construction and meaning in the design were considered during the development of these designs.
