MEDIUM-RISE RESIDENTIAL CLOSE KNIT GROUP OF ELDERLY FRIENDS 2.50 ACRE LOT 9742, JANDA BAIK

LIVING WITHIN THE GAP As for the project we are required to propose a retirement co-housing prototype. The client was the major factor limiting the design master plan as each space of the building was designed specifically to address the major influencing factors such as its co-housing concept, elderly friendly considerations as well as sustaining the scarce piece of greenery existing on the site.

Located in Janda Baik, Pahang, the co-housing design is meant for 30 retiree couples, and is designed within an area of approximately 2 acres.

The Residence makes a signature design statement for the newly low density living, in which the best living environment harmonizes with existing greenery at every corner of the site. From its unique cascading house units catered for the elderly and view-generous units to the overflow of activity space, The Residences creates a sustainable living value and optimizes existing resources through site-specific thinking.

Natural ventilation strategies that are injected into the design reduce energy use at the same time helped achieve floor plans with a minimum of 75% efficiency. Green living can be interpreted in few ways, whether living amongst lush natural greenery or living within a lowenergy, sustainable environment artificially created. In this context, The Residence is a definition of both.

RETIREMENT CO-HOUSING

1.2 PROJECT BRIEF

1.3 THE DILEMMA

LIVING WITHIN THE GAP

The definition of a retiree’s housing is somehow undefined in malaysia as it is more or less almost similar to the typical housing concept. Elder cohousing is a spin off from intergenerationall cohousing.

As for the project we are required to propose a retirement cohousing prototype. The client was the major factor limiting the design master plan as each space of the building was designed specifically to address the major influencing factors such as its co-housing concept, elderly friendly considerations as well as sustaining the scarce piece of greenery existing on the site.

New type of retirement communities are being developed, formulated into an age-specific cohousing model.

Located in janda baik, pahang, the co-housing design is meant for 30 retiree couples, and is designed within an area of approximately 2 acres.

WHAT DO THEY REALLY DESIRE AND NEED? SYSTEMATIC LIVING BETWEEN PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SPACES

AGGRESSIVE CIRCULATION AND FLEXIBILITY TO MOVE AROUND

ANXIETY TO FEEL YOUNG AGAIN AND FREE FROM PROBLEMS

PROVIDE ENOUGH FACILITIES FOR EVERYDAY LIVING

MAXIMISED SAFETY AND SECURITY

1.4 AIMS & OBJECTIVES 1. To encourage the old folks living the healthy lifestyle

6. To escape the framework of conventional architecture

5. Simple planning for the ease of direction but complex in terms of built form

2. Housing complex is designed for older adults who are generally able to care for themselves 3. To escape the conventional methods in designing housing for elderly 4. Design intention is to encourage participation from the residents

1.5 THE SITE

Janda baik is a peaceful small village located in the state of pahang. It is a simple malay kampong with a population of approximately 1000 people set amidst a small valley bounded by thick rainforest laced together with picturesque streams and cool rushing brooks of waterfalls.

With an altitude between 600-800m above sea level and cool breezing tropical climate of 22 degree celcius (night) to 28 degree celcius (day), janda baik is an idealistic gateway for city folks to experience the whole new co-housing living within nature.

4.2 SUSTAINABLE DESIGN LIVING WITHIN THE GAP The client was the major factor limiting the design master plan as each space of the building was designed specifically to address the major influencing factors such as its co-housing concept, elderly friendly considerations as well as sustaining the scarce piece of greenery existing on the site.

Located in janda baik, pahang, the co-housing design is meant for 30 retiree couples, and is designed within an area of approximately 2 acres.

The design of the residence presents a number of opportunities for advancing and implementing the philosophy of sustainable design.

Based on the premise that sustainable design is affordable, good for the RESIDENTS of the building and is beneficial to the environment, the strategy reflects an innovative and efficient approach to performative building design.

CENTRE OF EXCELLENCE : STUDENT LIFESTYLE HUB

STUDENT LIFESTYLE HUB TYPE: CLIENT: SIZE: LOCATION:

INSTITUTIONAL & COMMERCIAL BUILDING UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY, MARA 2.5 ACRE UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY MARA; SHAH ALAM CAMPUS

CENTRE OF EXCELLENCE, UITM SHAH ALAM The integration of urban strategies is as important as doing the design.

Having the idea of making connections between people and places, the term i forged this time as the concept is “sharing of knowledge� to integrate all the issues and requirements after series of site analysis. Manipulating voids, absence, cavity, hollow and etc to represent the borderless interactions between the students and the community, the student hub provides the least privacy to the surroundings so that it gives users the freedom to have activities.

Most colleges and universities provide a very limited spaces for their students, usually at a cost. This convenience is a majorfactor in the choice of where hanging around physically closer to classrooms is often preferred, particularly for first-year students who may not be permitted to park vehicles on campus.

The result is vast, open space with visibility from end-to-end. Instead of separating walls enclosing the spaces, open-ended volumes are created for hanger-like space for the best view of the building. All these parameters were brought together to form a strong concept that relates back to the grand idea of the project.

This student lifestyle hub would become a part of the social activity of university of technology mara students in order to bring additional need into the student community. It becomes a centre of excellence that offers variety of activities and experiences in the categories of commercial, recreational and social, for the students to chill-out after or in-between lectures. Instead of having to go to many different places, all those activities are creatively designed under one roof right in the campus!

2.1 ISSUE + DILEMMA

“INSUFFICIENT WORKING SPACES” Shah Alam is a large city comprising several numbers of colleges and universities in the area. The growing number of educational institutions results in the growing number of students, thus increasing the need of working / study spaces among student.

Students from various institutions in diagram below, including the client itself (University of Technology MARA) are observed to be disengaged with their campus as they work on assignments and projects.

THE MORE STUDENT INTAKE IN THE UNIVERSITY, THE LESSER WORKING SPACE AVAILABLE FOR STUDENTS PROVIDED BY CAMPUS. SPECIFICALLY IN TERMS OF THE QUALITY OF INDIVIDUAL WORKING SPACES, COLLABORATIVE STUDY SPACES AND INTERACTIVE ENVIRONMENT AMONG STUDENTS FROM VARIOUS DEPARTMENTS AND FACULTIES

2.3 TARGET USERS A variety of target users have been classified to further allow a synchronized rhythm within the public realm. The main players are UiTM students. They will be the everyday people in masses to use, explore and experience the development. An analytical study of their daily activities have been concluded into a programmable diagram. From their activities, potential space planning interventions have been mapped out to suit their preferences.

2.7 DESIGN STRATEGIES

90

PLAZA + OPEN SPACE; Almost every node of space is connected to the plaza, physically and visually.

CREATIVE LINKS; Linking all spaces by having creative interactive corridors and platform.

UPLIFTING STRUCTURE; Building is raised up to allow more open spaces for outdoor + urban activities

MULTI LEVEL; Creating an interactive working spaces, to improve working environment and students’ productivity.

CENTRE OF EXCELLENCE : STUDENT LIFESTYLE HUB

GREEN BUILDING; Practicing and intergrating passive + active sustainable design

ENERGY REPRODUCTION; Generate electricity from pressure to accommodate low-powered appliances

ICONIC BUILDING; Introducing fluid building form, creates more pleasant environment (students’ behaviour)

KNOWLEGDE EXCHANGE; Promotes social interaction between student community and public society through gained experience CENTRE OF EXCELLENCE : STUDENT LIFESTYLE HUB

91

The integration of urban strategies is as important as doing the design. Having the idea of making connections between people and places, the term i forged this time as the concept is “sharing of knowledge� to integrate all the issues and requirements after series of site analysis.

Manipulating voids, absence, cavity, hollow and etc to represent the borderless interactions between the students and the community, the student hub provides the least privacy to the surroundings so that it gives users the freedom to have activities.

The result is vast, open space with visibility from end-to-end. Instead of separating walls enclosing the spaces, open-ended volumes are created for hanger-like space for the best view of the building. All these parameters were brought together to form a strong concept that relates back to the grand idea of the project.

This student lifestyle hub would become a part of the social activity of university of technology mara students in order to bring additional need into the student community. It becomes a centre of excellence that offers variety of activities and experiences in the categories of commercial, recreational and social, for the students to chill-out after or in-between lectures. Instead of having to go to many different places, all those activities are creatively designed under one roof right in the campus!

4.3 SUSTAINABLE DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS The design of the student lifestyle hub presents a number of opportunities for advancing and implementing the philosophy of sustainable design. Based on the promise that sustainable design is affordable, good for the students’ behavior and is beneficial to the environment, the strategy reflects an innovative and efficient approach to performative building design.

GLASS ROOF SURFACE Void on the rooftop allows sunlight to enlighten spaces during the day. However, sun penetration is limited to control the amount of heat and glare entering the spaces

KINETIC ENERGY GENERATING FLOOR TILES The pavegen floor tiles flex a slight 5 millimeters when stepped on, capturing kinetic energy into lithium polimer battery, to accommodate low-powered appliances. The center of the tile illuminates when stepped upon, not only informing the passerby of their contribution to the environment but also encouraging the continuation of sustainable awareness and decisions.

THE SUST STRATEGE 9 KE

The pavegen tiles themselves are completely ecofriendly. The entire casing is made of marine grade stainless steel and recycled polymer with low carbon concrete. The top surface is built entirely of old truck tires that are not only a great use of recycled material, but also make the tiles incredibly durable throughout years of malaysian weather

BUILDING ORIENTATION Building form and orientation designed and modelled to minimise heat gain, high performance building envelope cladding used also reduces heat gain into the building.

LOW-FLOW SANITARY FITTINGS Utilize less water and function wise they are as efficient as other water closets. When less water is used, waste water is reduced and fewer chemicals are used to treat this waste water. Save on energy and natural resources.

142

CENTRE OF EXCELLENCE : STUDENT LIFESTYLE HUB

SUNSHADING FINS / LOUVRES Surface of each fin bounces sunlight, keeping lighting in and heats away. Acts like a lightshelf, transport light deeper into the building. Control view and visibility in and outwards of the building.

AROMATIC VEGETATIONS Indigenous plants; local and existing plants are used as part of the student lifestyle hub landscape. Locally fragrant plants such as serai, pandan and mints are used, to give calming scent to the environment quality especially during the rainy season

TAINABLE DESIGN ES INCORPORATES EY ELEMENTS:

PHOTOVOLTAIC PANELS

Roof finish is intergrated with photovoltaic panels that provides renewable power generation for the building usage. Placement of panels on sloping roof surface is facing towards east and west of the site

SLANTED WALLS The proposed design has structurally slanted walls to minimize the direct sunlight acting against the walls, thus reducing the indoor temperature.

GREEN SPACES + BREAKOUT SPACES Orientating view towards green spaces creates a healthy working and study environment to improve students’ well being and productivity.
