history of pulau duyong
residence of wan zakiah wan long
The Residence of Puan Wan Zakiah Wan Long in Pulau Duyong, Terengganu is the building that we’ve documented for the module Methods of Documentation and Measured Drawings in Practicum 1. This house has a history of over 60 years and is an epitome of traditional, vernacular Malay house found in Pulau Duyong. This documentation is done by a group of 16 students. All the drawings, measurements and information regarding the house are recorded during our 6 day long trip to Kuala Terengganu. After the trip, we undertook the task of documenting the building, translating all of the data to produce a set of drawings, as well as building a model of the house. At the end of this project, we have learnt many things that simply cannot be learnt from lectures or from the studios. We have learnt how to appreciate traditional vernacular architecture, put our abilities to measure and record to practice, produce proper documentations of an existing building, and also working effectively in a group.
Pulau Duyong (Duyong Island) is an island located in the middle of the estuary of Terengganu River. In the past, it was divided into three islands, Duyong Besar (Large Duyong), Duyong Kecil (Small Duyong), and Pulau Ketam (Crab Island). (Duyong Old Fort, 2013) Pulau Duyong is home to the practice of traditional boat making in Malaysia and also the home of some of the master boat makers. Boat makers in Pulau Duyong are known to build deep sea fishing boats, luxury yachts and row boats. The island was the residence of captains, boat skippers, and crews for a long time. This explains the Malay architecture of the houses built by the villagers during their residence. Duyung Kecil and Duyung Sekolah have jetties for fishermen and their boats. (Duyong Old Fort, 2013)
The Residence of Puan Wan Zakiah Wan Long is a traditional Malay house located at 3515, Kampung Duyong Besar, Jalan Tengku Mizan in Pulau Duyong, Kuala Terengganu. It was built by Tok Su, a local villager, 60-70 years ago. The house was built using cengal wood from Thailand. The original owner of the house – Encik Wan Long bin Haji Ismail, who worked as a secondary teacher in Kota Bharu, Kelantan, was assigned to transfer to Kuala Terengganu. The house was built when his whole family had to move with him to Pulau Duyong from Kota Bharu. During the early years of the house’s occupancy, there was no electricity in the house. Oil lamp was used for lighting. In addition, the casement windows were built using solid wood and there were no glass used in the windows. In 1967, the owner of the house extended his house by adding a toilet at the back of the house. Glass was also added to the house’s casement windows in place of the wooden casement windows. A veranda was also added at the front of the house.

conclusion
Socio-cultural Interaction The Malay kampung houses in Pulau Duyong are efficiently designed and built in response to the social, economic and environmental aspects of Terengganu. The construction of Puan Wan Zakiah’s house allows it to be dismantled and relocated because of its lightweight and flexible structure. This minimises the impact to the environment whenever a construction work is required.
Construction Materials
Pulau Duyong, an island located at the estuary of Terengganu River is a hidden treasure to all kinds of past memories. It used to be the main international port in Terengganu. It attracted traders and entrepreneurs, and some of them even built their houses in this island and lived with their family. The majority of houses in this island are built on tanah pusaka. It means that the house owner cannot sell the house without the permission of the land owner. They can only rent or abandoned it if they do not want to stay anymore. This results in the slow development in the island compared to other areas. Most of the houses in this island have over 50 years of history. The value of their historical background and its architecture should not be overlooked, and are definitely worth preserving.
‘Interior & Exterior’ Concept The windows in Puan Wan Zakiah’s house provide good ventilation and establish a relationship with the exterior environment. It indicates an open, immeasurable connection between inhabitants and outsiders. Zoning is done based on the degree of privacy and gender separation. It is in the Malay’s culture to be concerned with appropriateness of the space.
Puan Wan Zakiah’s house is built mainly with timber, a material with low-thermal capacity that allows for the escape of heat. The minimal use of glass prevents the heat from being trapped within the interior.
Large and Ventilated Roofs Solar radiation at Puan Wan Zakiah’s house is effectively taken care of by the wide, steeped roof with large overhangs. The overhangs provide adequate shade that also shelters the interior from the frequent rain. There are no ceiling panels which would result in air blockage.
Short Walls The short walls act to reduce the vertical areas of the house that are exposed to solar radiation and also make shading easier to accomplish.
Ventilated Interior The windows throughout the house are positioned at body height to allow for cross ventilation. In addition, grilles also help in keeping the house well ventilated.
