Fadhlyana Fadhil | Year 5 Portfolio (2015 / 2016)

Introduction (as stated in student handbook)

1.1 Study Programme This Handbook should be consulted for students undertaking the following courses: • The Post Graduate Diploma (PG Dip) in Advanced Architectural Design (AAD); this year constitutes the Second of the two years of the course and carries ARB/RIBA Part 2 exemption. It includes two semesters for a total of 120 Credits over 9 months. A Third semester, of a duration of roughly three months, leads to the award of the MArch in Advanced Architectural Design.

The MArch (PG Dip) degree provides an open and creative learning environment embracing theory and practice where students have the opportunity to explore architecture in a broad based and general manner.

The award of both the PG Dip and MArch signals the academic culmination of a design-centred, professionally orientated architectural education, which calls for theoretical, experimental and practical exemplification. The year is strongly projectbased and demands a high level of design ability.

In Year 5 students will appraise current theoretical approaches to architectural design, assessing and exemplifying their relevance in existing and proposed contexts. They will also develop and display formal and technical architectural ability; undertake a comprehensive architectural design project (thesis); demonstrate their awareness of management procedures relevant to design practice; and carry out a detailed examination of an issue or issues of particular architectural significance.

• The Masters in Architectural Design International (MADI); this year constitutes the second and final year of the course and carries Part 2 of RIBA exemption. As above, the first 2 semesters award a PG Dip and the Third the Masters degree.

1.2 Course Structure The award of the PG Dip in AAD/MADI requires the completion of the first 2 semester curriculum of 120 credits of compulsory classes: • 60 Design Studio; • 40 Subject Classes: Cultural Studies 5 and Professional Studies 5; • 20 credits of Option Classes: Special Study Project 5.

Successful completion of this part of the course, in conjunction with the credits attained in 4th year, meets the requirements of the RIBA Part 2 professional qualification (and ARB Part 2 for AAD students). Details of the required classes are given below. The Year Director approves all curricula.

Normally, all AAD/MADI students who have successfully passed all Diploma classes at the first attempt and with an average of 60% will be invited to progress to Masters and complete a further 60 compulsory credits of ‘Dissertation’. The required output of this final piece of work may vary dependent on circumstances and student choice (as approved by Year, Course Director and Supervisors) e.g. a written dissertation, or a design project.

Fadhlyana Fadhil | Year 5 Portfolio (2015 / 2016) 1.3 Design Studies The year works within a broad theme set by the Department. Within this, each Design Studio addresses a specific topic. Over two semesters, two projects are carried out, (Design 5A and Design 5B). They are worth 20 credits and 40 credits respectively. Although separate modules, these projects are directly linked: Design 5B should follow and be founded upon the work done in Design 5A. Together they constitute the main body of work undertaken in Year 5 and, considered as a whole, they make up the Post Graduate Thesis.

The objectives and nature of these projects are described in the Module Descriptors and Briefs given in Sections 2 and 4 of this handbook. Each year the design curriculum will be set on a chosen theme of significant architectural interest on which the activities of the year will be focused. Each Design Project will be carried out in the context of one of the Design Studios, each of which has its own subject and ethos within the overall theme.

These Studios are headed by staff who will guide students through the year according to their areas of specialism and to the Faculty Strategic Themes.

It is in the design studio that students are expected to synthesise their accumulated knowledge from various subject areas and apply it within the design process, and these design projects are therefore supplemented and supported by other credits in the other classes: explicitly in Cultural Studies 5 (CS5) and implicitly in Professional Studies 5 (PS5), as well as in the Special Study Project 5 (SSP5).

In both semesters interim reviews (formative) and final examinations (summative) are scheduled to take place.

1.4 Compulsory Classes All students must pass all fifth year compulsory classes for the award of the Diploma. To be considered for transfer to Masters these classes should be passed at the first attempt. ’.

Introduction This year project is about discovering the collective potential of lanes in Glasgow’s City Centre, to create a city within a city. Lanes can be human scale, walkable, safe, bustling with activity, beautiful, accessible and unique.

It can be said lanes are the mark of the city’s culture, history and character. Since University of Strathclyde collaborated with Page/Park Architects to find the best way to solve the perception of Glasgow’s lanes.

Since every city has lanes, only a few places around the world managed to make the best out of theirs. Thus, we need to plan a clear and innovative understanding on how it works, have imaginative visions what they could be and then create a proposals how to get there.

This semester, we’ve formed Analysis Groups to analyze Glasgow Lanes which consist of – a)History

b)Centrality

c)Character

d)Uses

e)Perception.

After all of the groups settled and we have clear and innovative understanding on how Glasgow lanes work, we’ve formed another Strategy Group to have imaginative visions on Glasgow lanes. From there, I developed my own strategic planning on having a pedestrian friendly designs and streetscapes in a city along with others works in my group.

Photo Surveys To have better understanding of the lanes, I’ve done photo surveys on the first week of the semester with few other students (Dhiyana, Isabelle, Wen He and Di Boa). We cover all the Glasgow lanes to have a first view of what we are going to do throughout the semester. Then we share our thoughts and impression of the lanes as urban designers.

Analysis For analysis group projects, me with my group mates (Dhiyana, Wen He and Isabelle) search on the Perception topic which covers both students and users perception on Glasgow lanes. There are several subtopics of perception were highlighted such as; Safety, Maintenance, Comfort, Visual, User, and Destinations. Below are the developments I’ve contributed in this group; a) On week 2 of the semester, we have meeting to list out the observation points and measuring

methods. I’ve do the documentation for the group to have better understanding on what to be

done. b) On week 3, I prepared survey methods and drafted the interview questions for the lane users. c) On week 4 up to week 5, me and my group mates prepared maps and transferred all the data

collections together. The production of works are in a group manners without any specific topic

given to each of us. These are to make sure everyone understand all the process of the works. d) On the final week of the analysis works, I did the compiling works for the Perception Booklet.

Strategy The combination of analysis group member from History (Lorenzo), Centrality (Ruaraidh), Character (Matyas), Uses (Jean) and Perception (me) create an imaginative vision to change the perception of Glasgow lanes in order to create opportunity for a growing population and economy – ‘a city within a city’.

Our proposal of lane revitalization take place by having tactical urbanism which divided into; a) Short term strategy b) Mid-term strategy c) Long term strategy These strategy will be covered by a clear categorization of residential lanes, leisure lanes and also office lanes.

The vision of changing the image, perception, view and impression of lanes will be outlined in the end of this semester and to be used to create an individual proposals how to achieve them by next semester.

WHY

We believe the spark will give us the start we need to make the overall vision inclusive by involving public consultation. Once we have monitored the success/observation from people who live, pass-through and work in and around the lanes, we will configure a core path vision that will be designed accordingly.

HOW The short term strategy is the first stage to achieving our overall vision. It will test our ideas and see how people respond to them.

Through temporary installations it will test the public opinion and challenge how people perceive the lanes and hopefully change their opinion about them.

The money collected from temporary installations and events in the lanes will be used over medium and longterm strategies.

Fadhlyana Fadhil | Year 5 Portfolio (2015 / 2016) Introduction Glasgow is currently planning to transform its lanes into new public spaces has been revealed. The Scheme would see the city centre lanes in a new light with similar schemes in cities including Melbourne and Colorado. During the course of the studio project, it became apparent that there is a cluster of lanes nestled between the busy Buchanan Street and Queen Street in the centre of town.

In the heart of this block, there is a forgotten gem – Springfield court. The court can be accessed from various routes, primarily Princes Square shopping centre, Princes Court, Buchanan and Queen Street. It was our vision to pierce through the block, creating a more legible route for pedestrians to access parts throughout the block and to green Springfield Court creating an oasis in the heart of the city, LET GLASGOW FLOURISH. Our project will involve several tools that we feel will address existing issues on our site; a) Punching through + opening up the block + creating new corridors b) Drainage – creating an alternative run-off for Glasgow’s rainy climate c) Waste management d) Streetscape (retro-fitting) - Seating - Lighting - Family of entrances - Activities/uses - Greening the lanes/courts

Glasgow Lanes (42,809.6 sqm)

Proposed Site Area (12,205.0 sqm)

George Square (10,704.5 sqm)

Justification Statement During the course of the studio, it became apparent that many lanes/courts were not utilised to their full potential. This became the focus of our studio project and in particular the block between busy Buchanan Street and Queen street in the heart of Glasgow’s city centre.

After analysing and interpretting them in terms of urban meaning and urban functionality we wanted to alter their sensory and sensual built environment that is considered special in the eyes of the observer (Castells, 1983).

Lanes comprise a total area of 42,809 m2 which is nearly four times that of George Square (10, 704m2).

We will not target all the lanes, but during the analysis stage we identified the lanes we felt are feasible, connected and will ultimately change the perception/typology of the lanes in Glasgow.

Fadhlyana Fadhil | Year 5 Portfolio (2015 / 2016) Introduction The Cultural Studies 5 class is delivered in Semester One (weeks 9-10) and in Semester Two (weeks 2-7).

The idea is to dovetail CS5 closely with the demand placed on students to explore architecture’s disciplinary boundaries and relationships so as to ground their thesis project in recognisable bodies of knowledge. Each odd week on a Thursday will comprise of a group of lectures that explore various aspects of the key themes. On the following Tuesday which will replace the Studio Design Tutorial students are then asked to make a short presentation in a small group context about the envisaged historical, technological, cultural and political agendas that their chosen thesis project will examine and respond to. The outcome of the class is to develop thesis abstract and synopsis, and to establish a common set of queries against which the diverse investigations might be examined and discussed.

Learning Outcomes Using and building upon the material and research that you produced for the seminars you are required to produce 4 A2 works that reflect upon the development of your thesis through the prism of this year’s four seminar themes; Politics and Ideology, The Critical Role of The Avant Garde and the Utopian Imaginary, Contemporary Art Practice, Architecture and The City, and the Architectural Drawing as Narrative and Critical Act. You are free to use any combination of image and text and any medium or combination of media. In other words you might produce two-dimensional posters, series of drawings, analytical diagrams, photographs of models or indeed any other form of representation with which you have been experimenting. The works must be designed and reproduced to a professional exhibition quality standard. Minimum 300dpi. The best of them will be exhibited in the end of year show.

Themes Politics and Ideology Reflecting upon the conclusions of your 5A submission, you are required to produce a five-point manifesto poster that summarises the political, economic and social objectives of your thesis. You need not feel constrained here by the character of existing reality. It is an opportunity for you to articulate a set of ideals. Avoid the banal and obvious e.g. ‘to make the world a happy place full of green things’. Be bold but specific. Imagine for example that you had the opportunity and power to pass five laws …. What would they be?

The Critical Role of The Avant Garde and the Utopian Imaginary Using any combination of text and image, this work should demonstrate how your thesis project contests conventional wisdom about the nature of architecture and the city. In what ways does your thesis break new ground in how we might imagine the future city? What bodies of architectural knowledge does it draw upon to achieve this?

Contemporary Art Practice, Architecture and The City In this work you are asked to think about your thesis in relationship to the myriad dimensions of art practice and using any medium, create a work that illustrates an aspect of your project that has in your opinion artistic potential and merit.

The Architectural Drawing as Narrative and Critical Act In the last work you are asked to produce a single ‘killer’ image, drawn by hand or by a combination of hand and digital techniques that stands alone and without lengthy textual explanation, apart from a title and subtitle, communicates the narrative dimensions of your thesis.

General principles covered in the module will address applicationsnwithin the context of the Architectural business entity. Topics include professional duties, responsibilities and ethics, firm types and structure, strategic planning, marketing and public relations, human resource management and leadership, contract form and negotiation, and risk management.

Syllabus This class combines a taught element with programme covering the preparation of anAcademic Portfolio. The module shall be delivered in a series of lecture/seminar-based session throughout both semesters. The lectures/ seminars will be scheduled on a fortnightly basis. Tutorial sessions will also be held on intermediate weeks. The lecture seminar programme will cover the following topics: • The Architects’ Registration Board • Professional Duties and Responsibilities of Architects • The Architects’ Appointment • Project Programming and Fees • Town Planning, Building Control and Building Standard Regulations • Marketing and Development in Practice • Business Styles and Accounting Practices • Forms of Practice and Statutory Obligations • Resource & Financial Management • Procurement and Contracts • Adjudication and Arbitration Delivery Semester 2 : Duration: 12 weeks Class based : the class introduces and explores multiple issues that surround architectural practice; topics explored will include in part or in whole: the role of the professional architect in the building process; the professional workplace; business environment; practice organisation and managing a design project. The class also seeks to give an advanced understanding of the building contracts; regulatory and legislative issues arising from architectural practice.

The progressive assembly of an academic portfolio (comprising design project work, written and other assignments) represents an important aspect of personal development planning, and the class will be focussed on the production of such a portfolio, in recognition of ARB/RIBA Part 2 criteria.

Fadhlyana Fadhil | Year 5 Portfolio (2015 / 2016) Introduction This module aims to provide students with an understanding of the concepts of sustainability and sustainable development. The social, environmental, and economic impact of development strategies will be identified and the mitigation of negative impacts discussed. In particular, on completion of the module students will understand the concept of social, environmental and economic sustainability and be able to discuss population, urban, and economic growth strategies and their impacts.

Syllabus The module will cover the following: • shifting world views with respect to technology and ecology; • green politics; • green theoretical perspectives; • climate change; • sustainable development; • limits to growth (people, economies & cities).

Assessment The module is VLE-based and blends traditional lecture presentations supported by online resources with structured online discussions on specific topics, and face-to-face themed seminars. Assessment is based on the student’s contribution to the discussion forum, participation at the group seminars, and the submission of a topic-based position paper demonstrating an understanding of sustainability and sustainable development.

Since students taking the class are from various disciplines, nationalities, and cultures, and have varying experiences with respect to sustainability issues, interaction and dialogue around key aspects of the syllabus (both online and face-to-face) is prioritised within the module. The discursive approach exposes students to alternative perspectives and allows them to support one another’s learning. Students are encouraged to provide feedback (peer discussion) to each other on specific topics, goals, and criteria leading to an agreed position within a seminar group. Comments posted by students online are used by the lecturer in subsequent sessions to promote dialogue. The articulation of an agreed group position around defined seminar themes allows the student to identify their own topic for the individual position paper submission, providing them more control over aspects of their learning and increases motivation. The assessment criteria and the timing of the paper submission is discussed and agreed with the students in advance of submission.

Fadhlyana Fadhil | Year 5 Portfolio (2015 / 2016) Position Paper: CARBON MANAGEMENT IN THE EXISTING STOCK THROUGH RETROFITTING : ACHIEVING ZERO CARBON BUILDING Introduction

In recent years, increasing of our human populations especially in the urban centres has resulted climate change mitigation and adaptions in the cities. While cities are seen to destroy the environments and taken their resources, some creative and innovative cities are providing the solutions. Awareness are created to achieve sustainable developments by the governments. Retrofitting or re-engineer existing buildings and urban infrastructures is said to be one of the solution for a better development especially to those cities with history of urbanisation. Retrofitting helps to deal with ageing building stocks and infrastructures. In the article from Retrofit 2050 team, it is stated that, “in UK, less than 1-2% of total building stock each year is new build, and some 70% of total 2010 building stock will still be in use in 2050; renovation and refurbishment rates are between 2.9% and 5% of existing stock for domestic buildings and 2-8% for commercial stock, depending on the sector. The Climate Change Act and related 80% emissions reduction target for 2050 have done much to focus attention on the impact of the built environment in cities on carbon emissions. This is not surprising, given that emissions from buildings (35%) and industry (35%) account for more than two thirds of total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the UK, with the residential sector responsible for 23% and the non-residential sector 12%.” Thus, to make sure all new buildings in the development existing infrastructures, along with the other existing buildings are in the condition of having low carbon emissions, requirements are set out to cover carbon emissions such as Planning Act 2008, Low Carbon Transition Plan (2009), National Infrastructure Plan (2011), Carbon Plan (2011) and Energy Act (2012). To reduce carbon emissions through built environment, it requires developers to focus on the consumptions of energy, water, and waste and resource use in a building according to their location and climate. Retrofit will be one of the best option to have sustainable cities. It is a process of upgrading existing building in wholly or partially by improving its energy and environmental performance, reducing waste and water used, improving comfort and quality of space in terms of natural lighting, air quality and noise. By then, a healthy and socially sustainable built environment can be produced.

WHY Retrofitting?

To meet the challenge of climate change in UK, low carbon retrofit of most building stocks programme is to be run. It is a £500 billion opportunity with benefits. The government shall provide financial and regulatory incentive to the stakeholders to enable retrofit to be done. This is to reach the main target of reducing carbon dioxide emissions by at least 80% by 2050. Retrofitting gives advantages both in environment and economical of a city. For example, by improving energy efficiency, we can mitigated climate change reduced carbon dioxide emissions. Adaptation to climate change through reduced risk of summer overheating and improved resistance to more frequent extreme weather also can be one of the benefits of retrofitting. Beside, retrofitting can make better living by improving comfort in homes which are better insulated, better ventilated and draught-free.

Thus, in terms of economic aspects, we can improve market value. Other than that, fuel problems can be helped by as there will be protection against rising fuel price which are expected to rise by up to 60% by 2020.

Retrofitting is one of the technical options of having low carbon emissions in a city. However, a lifestyle choice is also important to maintain these retrofitting to success. From there, business opportunities can be gained along in promoting retrofitting to achieve it target. Many organisations shall be presented to promote the benefits of low carbon retrofit and marketing the services to help deliver it.

WHO Involve in Retrofits?

Essentially, there are four main types of organisation to involve in retrofitting. They are; lenders, advisors, providers and installers; • Lenders or investors are financial institutions that will give funding for retrofitting projects, for repayment via the Pay As You Save (PAYS) procedure.

80

Fadhlyana Fadhil | Year 5 Portfolio (2015 / 2016) • Advisors are organisations who will survey and assess dwellings, evaluate improvement options, advise householders and landlords on appropriate improvement measures and costs. They will also deal with statutory approvals such as planning permission and Building Regulations.

• Providers will be the one who received funding from lenders, manage the installation of approved improvement measures and arrange PAYS payments via fuel suppliers.

• Installers, who are trained and accredited to install approved materials and accredited products for low carbon retrofit and to advise householders about how to use and maintain them.

In new sustainable developments, investors and lenders are unlikely to become involved to save the environment. Retrofitting may become one of the area they are endorsing during this period. Financier will fund projects that will gain profit in operating assets. Unfortunately, retrofits are said to not yield the same profit margin as new construction projects. However, retrofit is a safer play in the current economic climate.

This is because, upgrading works are less risky compared to the new constructions from a ground. They involve less material expenses and are in small scale. For examples, in retrofitting projects involved simple works as installing new heating, air conditioning, ventilation system, solar panels, new security system as cctv or hidden camera and might even just planting greeneries in the front courtyard. Basically, retrofit will involve both interior and exterior of the buildings. It can be either simple renovations or even a multiple complex renovations which are known as deep retrofitting. All type of retrofits are eventually need to have the four organisations to have a successful retrofitting projects.

HOW Retrofitting Works?

“When the concept of sustainable development was introduced over a decade ago, the main idea to achieve this is mainly by reducing in energy use, with environmental ethics and take care of its financial. Now, in the context of current economic conditions, the financial gains that can be achieved through green commercial development are becoming increasingly important, while environmental benefits such as a reduced carbon footprint and improved air quality have become secondary drivers,” Urban Land (2009).

As state and local governments increase efforts to pass legislation mandating energy-efficient construction during the downturn, the reasons for which developers and investors “go green” will shift again, this time driven by public agency incentives and regulations, the survey suggests. Developers will produce green commercial properties, whether swayed by strict commercial development guidelines or by incentives for employing sustainable building practices; tenant/user requirements for healthier buildings will also play a role in prompting action. Also affected by the downturn are premiums associated with green commercial properties over conventional properties, including construction costs, asset transaction prices, and lease rates. As the sustainable development industry and overall economy change, so too do the premiums. Though green premiums will remain relatively stable through the downturn due to minimal activity in all sectors of real estate, they are likely to shift during the recovery in the following ways: • A decline in construction cost premiums Green construction costs have fallen in the past few years and will continue to fall because of better technology, cheaper materials, and increasing competition among materials providers, construction companies, and certification agencies.

• A decline in operating expense premiums Technological advances and a larger competitive marketplace will also lead to decreased operating expenses in sustainable commercial properties.

• A rise in asset price premiums The sale price differential between a green building and a comparable conventional structure is also likely to change. Green assets will be in high demand during the recovery as investors position themselves for a green dominated future, driving up sales prices and their associated premiums over conventional properties.

81

Fadhlyana Fadhil | Year 5 Portfolio (2015 / 2016)

The increase in the asset price premium will be momentary and, in fact, will be reversed in the long term. As a result of advances in technology and increased competition, green project costs and operating expenses will fall, creating a domino effect that puts downward pressure on lease rates and, in turn, asset values.

While green asset prices are going to experience a sharp increase at the end of the downturn, they will begin to fall with time as cost savings associated with energy efficiency are transferred from the property owners to the tenants. Green development no longer simply represents an environmentally friendly label, but instead constitutes a new technology that has the capability to create larger profit margins for real estate professionals while simultaneously reducing the energy use and environmental impact of buildings around the world. Though developers and investors are less likely to adhere to green development practices in the current recessionary economic climate, sustainable development will become an industry standard in the long term, with a continued emphasis on real cost savings and government-mandated environmental benefits associated with green technology. The Concord Group survey— intended to gauge sentiments concerning the outlook of sustainable development practices in commercial real estate in the context of the current economic recession—involved 101 respondents, 45 percent in development, 25 percent in architecture/planning, 16 percent in investment/ lending, 7 percent in consulting/law, and 7 percent in construction.

Conclusions

Retrofitting has the potential to give contribution in tackling climate change and environmental problems. It helps people in saving money and energy. Retrofitting are likely to become norm in years to come in achieving sustainable cities. As said by Jeremy Blake, partner at architects Purcell Miller Tritton (PMT) in an article about retrofitting, “every project we get involved in now embraces green and sustainability measures, where it used to only apply to clients who were both the developer of a site and the end-user. I think there will be a tipping point where market demand means it becomes a necessity, not an option.” Integrating sustainable technologies will be the main target to reduce carbon footprint and improve efficiency to make the world better.

Fadhlyana Fadhil | Year 5 Portfolio (2015 / 2016) Introduction This class introduces students to cultural, social, and psychological issues in architectural and urban design, and to the field of environment-behaviour EB. It provides an overview and analysis of the literature and major scholars and researchers in the field. An integral component of the course is an intensive discussion of issues that pertain to ways in which information about socio-cultural factors and environment-behaviour research can be applied to design projects. The course views that the built environment is not simply a background against which human actions take place, but it regards it as it reflects and shapes human assumptions, beliefs, feelings, and behaviours.

Syllabus The class will be delivered as a series of lectures with readings, exercises, discussions, and a research project forming integral components of the class. The programme involves series of topics relevant to social-behavioural and socio-cultural aspects of the built environment.

In addition to lectures, the delivery of the program will involve the implementation of pedagogical tools that instigate discussions and encourage active and experiential learning.

Topics include: • Culture and the Built Environment – Definitions and Concepts • Environment-Behaviour Studies. Does it make a difference?

• Socio-Cultural/Socio-Behavioural Phenomena • Overview of Methods in Cultural, Psychological, and Behavioural Research • Cultural, Social, and Behavioural Issues: Houses and Housing Environments • Cultural, Social, and Behavioural Issues: Institutional Environments (Office Buildings-Work Environments) • Cultural, Social, and Behavioural Issues: Institutional Environments (School Buildings-Learning Environments) • Cultural, Social, and Behavioural Issues in Urban and Public Spaces • The Role of Programming and Evaluation Research in Design (from a cultural and behavioural perspective) • Why Projects get International Awards? Awareness of Culture and Society Assessment The Learning Outcomes will be assessed through: • 2 Individual exercises - 1 Book review assignment & 1 In-class group design game • 1 research project (paper and presentation) (team of 2/3 students)

Fadhlyana Fadhil | Year 5 Portfolio (2015 / 2016) Book Review Exercise TITLE : IDENTITY BY DESIGN AUTHORS : GEORGIA BUTINA WATSON & IAN BENTLEY YEAR OF PUBLICATION : 2007 CITY OF PUBLICATION : OXFORD, UK PUBLISHER : ARCHITECTURAL PRESS NUMBER OF PAGES : 289 ISBN-13 : 987-0-75-064767-0 COVER : PAPERBACK

Professor Georgia Butina Watson, Oxford Brookes University’s Head Department of Planning written Identity by Design with her co-writer and colleague, Ian Bentley to tackle the issues of what makes a city or place its identity. These two academics based at the JDUC (Joint Centre for Urban Design) think that it is important for designers, architects and planners to have efforts to know their role in describing series of process by which towns and cities become places with their own identities since in this globalisation all cities are starting to look the same.

In the first chapter of the book published by Architectural Press, they attempt to define what are meant by identity. The authors started the writing by stating the pressure of globalisation, by which “local place identities are being lost or eroded. Firms are working internationally. But you can’t just blame the architects, as the communities themselves want to be more modern.” The authors stated how ‘identity’ is actually a notoriously loose concept as users of a place usually have their own thinking of the place identity especially how the place affects them.

The book went more details towards eight cities and one JDUC design approach as case studies in identifying how identity can be noted by the city stories. The case studies include Prague: the pursuit and perils of national identity, Plecnik’s Ljubljana: the social relevance of a personal vision, Mexico: complexities of culture and landscape, The London Underground: a way for all, Malaysia: layering ecology and culture, and many others. The designs behind every city identification are analysed by the processes of the geography and history of the place and how place-makers create the city identity. ‘It is the process of inhabiting that is important’, the authors said appointing the way people moves and experience the places and buildings. This include how people reveal to a mix of feelings and emotions, including smells, memories and activities.

In every case studies chapters, Georgia Butina Watson and her partner will address the positives and negatives lessons in their cultural studies of the cities. Through finding about the identity, the authors make arguments so that designers are in a better positions in shaping the cities with the interaction with the local communities as, different locations will have different roles of architecture, urban design and planning.

In Prague for example, communities find ways to create national identities ever since the Hapsburg Empire ruled. Consisting a variety of religions and languages mixed as one community, the book described how topography of land and the locations of the river created squares and city spaces. From the reading, Czech Cubism is seen to offer the real ideas of identity by design. In subsequent chapters, the ideas were developed more richly and wider relevance as the authors look at Ljubljana in Yugoslavia and the newly developing urban forms of Mexico. In both cases, the authors strive to show how new developments have links with culture, history and geography.

Beside concerning on the sense of people and non-human natural system, the authors also addressed the reader to consider place-identity issues by the knowledge in the public transportation system. The London Underground is the current levels of automobile dependence which to be one of the support of London’s identity. This chapter explores the creation of altogether new, in parallel topography. In the case of this transportation sytems, new building types is required by new practical issues to foster the sense of belonging to the travelling 88

Fadhlyana Fadhil | Year 5 Portfolio (2015 / 2016) community.

As the reading went deeper, I believed that we shall accept modernisation without losing the place identity by guiding traditional architectural concepts to be incorporated in city designs. Malaysia is one of a proven case study of these modernisations. In this case study chapter, authors focused on how local designers try to work with a complex levels of cultural traditions. Being a rapidly developing country with high rises dominate the cities, the local identity is still being emerged. The development of Kuala Lumpur cities are designed in Malaysian style of contemporary interpretation of traditional Malay timber house. The ideas of trophic city included with the arcade systems, pedestrian walkways and many more that are designed to suit the tropical country.

The key of finding ways to preserve local identities, assimilating old and new systems are seen to be the main objective of what the authors try to stand by. The fact that Georgia Butina Watson has travelled extensively to study all kind of cities, enables her to take overview and make some comparisons by looking into the heritage and local identities by herself. The book ends with a synthesis combining all the case studies morphological approaches.

In the authors’ words, they describe this process: “It is these morphological elements - topography and hydrology, linkage networks, blocks/patches, plots and buildings/shelters - which form the basic raw material of parts and wholes from which cultural landscapes are formed through design. In place-identity terms, the designer’s task is to organise these elements and the relationships and interfaces between them, so as to foster positive support for our place-identity agenda: maximising choice, constructing the rootedness of imagined community, overcoming nostalgia, supporting a sense of transcultural inclusiveness and co-dwelling with the wider ecosphere, for as many users as possible.

Using these ideas, we can range across our case studies to bring out a pattern of useful design principles, across all the morphological scales, which can help all designers crate the potential for positive place-identities: both at the practical level of how places are used, and at the symbolic level of their meanings.”

The above conclude the ideas of what the authors aimed for. Going through this books, readers may have clear knowledge on how to study identity of a place. The content is understandable by just reading it.

Georgia Butina Watson as both academic and practitioner approaches to draw up the brief in committing works with the locals has reached her aims of studies through this book, Identity by Design. The case studies explored in this book shall open up the ideas to design thinking forward. It will helps to map out boundaries of a new imagined communities.

Identity by Design shall be one of the book to refer by the urban designers, planners or architects to make further developments of a city. The authors have list out the ideas and guidance on the methodology in designing at the same time to preserve its identity. To refer on the case studies listed with illustrated photographs to let us imagine how the place is shall helped in addressing the issue of identity and place through design. This book is recommended for its good content and reading, though it lack of urban design graphics that might give academic helps or practical requirements. However, readers shall have a glimpse of hope in designing with the help of a full text description.

Since the book are full of text, this review was made by having the book borrowed from the university library to have clear and focus reading. Though softcopy of Identity by Design can be found online (see bibliography), it is best to own the book for reading and highlighting for notes. At the end of every chapter, authors will list down notes of book they referred for the readers to find more information regarding the issues. Thus, I found the style and presentation of the book is really helpful to refer.

Some of the users are seen to use the sitting area to grab quick snacks and drinks.

In the above images, the setting was at the upper floor of Buchanan Galleries which the sitting area are provided in between of the voids. The sitting furniture are located parallel to each other. Each of the seat can accommodate three people to sit in the same time with a curved metal in between them as barrier. Although these people are strangers, they do not hesitate to seat beside each other. This prove that the barriers help to create the sense of separation and ownership for the users of the sitting area. For example we can see how the first man (left) in the first images creating her own space of privacy by sitting down looking towards under level of the shopping center.

2m radius away from each other

Text: Contemplation Botanic Gardens is a park situated away from the busy Glasgow city centre in West End. It acts as a meeting place for doggy walkers, child minders, joggers and other ages of group. Its beauty, calm, peace, tranquillity and well maintained garden fills with multi-coloured flower blooming especially during the summer. This place provides an enjoyable and leisure for people to get away from the hustle and bustle city life by having their own time in the fresh air.

People will usually come in groups to spend their time together and choose to relax over the green areas rather than sitting on the bench provided along the walkway (see sketches). They will mark their ownership of space by randomly choose anywhere on the grass that have the radius of 2metres or more away from the other groups around them. By doing that, they will have their own privacy area to do what they intend to. 2 metres away from others is enough for them to speak freely in a normal human voice tone without worrying the others might overheard their conversations.

As seen in the images above, the park will be very busy during the Spring and Summer months as people take advantage of this beautiful setting to spend time together with their families during school holidays and weekends. We can see people doing their own activities like sitting, reading, having picnic with their family many members of friends or even having a conversation with a complete stranger over a friendly cup of tea in the park.

Text: Contemplation Perceptions of lanes are usually dirty, dangerous, underused and avoided. However, it is different in Ashton Lane, a famous liveable lane situated in the Glasgow West End. Having cafes, bars and restaurants in the lane give a wonderful and intimate feelings of the people towards the buildings around them. This is because lanes can be human scale, walkable, safe bustling in activity and unique compare to the streets that are exposed with vehicles and the traffic. The image of Ashton Lane above shows that lane can be one of the truest marks of a city’s people, history and character.

The two storeys blocks in Aston Lane provide food and beverage services in both ground and upper floors. The pathway of the people stands in between of both side shops which provide the people to walk around freely before making up their mind to choose their desired destination whether to the left or right shop. Bollards and the planter boxes are used to create separation and different setting of space uses. The pavement styles are also seen to have given different sense of ownership and marks where a café setting ends.

The spill out cafes in this lane overlooking to the opposite side of the building, giving people in the café or bars an interaction with other people that are not only in the same café as theirs but with the people who are walking down the pathway or even with the people from the opposite shops.

For example in the above image, it is seen that there is a man standing at the upper floor looking down toward the ground floor. This gives opportunities for him to have interactions to the people on the ground level.

Fadhlyana Fadhil | Year 5 Portfolio (2015 / 2016) Assesment of Socio Behavioural & Spatial Aspect of Princess Square Introduction

Glasgow city centre’s architecture relates with the major architectural movements that reached Britain.

From Victorian Era, the styles continually updated with examples of innovative contemporary architecture.

While Glasgow received the perception as ‘Second City of the Empire’, the modern buildings of recent years were actually the results of the reuseable older buildings supporting its recent change in role as a hub for cultural and creative industries through events such as the European City of Culture 1990, UK City of Architecture and Design 1999 and 2014 Commonwealth Games. Princes Square is one of the building which change it’s roles from a open courtyard with stables towards a premium retails centre.

This project is done to have better understanding of social, cultural and behavioral issues involved in shaping the built environment. Princes Court is chosen as the building project since the building is the result of regeneration of Glasgow. The regeneration projects in Glasgow undertaken several key areas of retail developments along Buchanan Street including Princes Square to be the focal point of culture, shopping and leisure.

On its own terms, the regeneration of Glasgow has undoubtedly been a success. Glasgow is now the largest and best retail centre in the UK outside of London.

Thus, the objective doing this project paper is to gather all the information related to human interaction with the built environment. Research, documentation, site visits, photos and video surveys are the procedures taken throughout this collective process. Before the analysis works started, building documentation is prepared to provide better understanding on how the building functions. All the basic informations about Princes Square can be found in Chapter 1. This chapter will provide the building name, location, client, architects, major functions and activities, users types, historical stories of the building, drawings and images.

The following Chapter 2 will the the Behavioral Assesment of the building. In this chapter, all the social and behavioral issues involved in Princes Square chosen spaces are addressed. Photographs, sketches, and notation diagrams are used as the tools to highlight the interactional relationship between the users and the spaces selected. While going into Chapter 3, Building Assesment is done among the team members to assess Princess Square. This chapter will highlighted the summary of the team assesments utilizing the “Six Factor Building Assessment Tool--attached”.

Fadhlyana Fadhil | Year 5 Portfolio (2015 / 2016) Research Methods

There are two methods of data collection for this research, Behavioural Mapping and Contemplating Settings.

Behavioural mapping is an alternative approach of data collection that views people as ‘objects’ by recording their periodic behaviour. Valuable information can be obtained when behaviour is systematically recorded. An unplanned observation may result in inadequate findings that may reveal only what seems to be already obvious.

A systematic observation of behaviour involves four aspects which are; - People - Activities - Setting / Space - Timing

The second method is by contemplating setting. Basically, a more indepth analysis of selected spaces; atrium and food court. Two smaller area are chosen from each space and will be included in the behavioural assessment, which is right after behavioural mapping of each spaces. As written before, describing/analysing/ reflecting on the phenomenon and activities as they happen in the setting/space.

- People

- Size Characteristics

- Time Characteristics

- Objects

: who goes here/there and why, who has control over the setting. : what is the existing or desired physical size of the setting or desired physical size of the setting. : How often and for how long does the setting occur/How many person hours are spent here. : What type and how many behaviour objects are used or needed/What are the possibilities for response and adaptation.

To complete this part of the research, two major spaces in Princes Court were chosen. The first space is the atrium on the Courtyard level and food court on second floor terrace level. The spaces were chosen as it represent the most significant and active space in the building.

Both are very different in their physical features and activities that can be accommodated. The following part of this chapter will feature behavioural mapping and contemplating setting of the two. This will in turn provide us with a valuable information that is vital in preparing an in depth analysis of the spaces.

Next, using “Six Factor Building Assessment Tool” , the Princess Square is assesed by every team member regarding all the following factors; 1- Context This topic talks on the building’s setting. Buildings are usually located in a context. The context is exemplified by several visual attributes such as character, size, visual features, materials, and relationship of the building to the urban environment. The context is simply the building’s setting.

2- Massing Buildings are organized in form into some type of massing. Thus, this topic focussed on how massing of the building gives both form and meaning as well as variety to the building.

96

Fadhlyana Fadhil | Year 5 Portfolio (2015 / 2016) 3- Interface A building is essentially an enclosure that separates an interior private space for the exterior public space. The interface is the crucial meeting place where the inside of the building connects with the outside.

4- Wayfinding Wayfinding is the ability for people to discern routes, traffic patterns or passageways in and around the building.

5- Socio Spatial Socio spatial discussed about the ability of the physical environment to accommodate diverse human needs.

6- Comfort This topic focussed on how environment affecting the human comfort especially on the lighting, heating and cooling, and also noise of the building.

Conclusions

At the end of the project, we found out that the building assesments done have highlighted the relationship of the factors involved and the qualities of spaces within the building or the urban qualities of the public space. As well it offers form of conceptual and perhaps numerical verification. Princes Square scored 2.9 in average total score. Below is the calculation of overall average score;

= Context (3.35) + Massing (2.75) + Interface (2.90) + Wayfinding (2.38) + Socio Spatial (2.51) + Comfort (3.53) 6 factors = 2.90

The score shows that Prices Square building is fairly succeed as a public building; a place for community to have social interactions while adapting to the cultural of the area. Context and comfort are the main factors contibuted to this success. It’s strategic location in the heart of Glasgow city, along the famous shopping street make the building to be noticed by visitors. While being indoor, Princes Square really succeed in giving comfort to their users.

Unfortunately, Princes Square score less in wayfinding as it might resulted confusion for the first timer visitors in terms of it’s entrances. Their objectives to make the building accessible and permeable leads to unpractical number of entrances. However, for visitors that are used to the building will have no problem on this matter.

In conclusion, each of the building element play a vital role in determining the efectiveness of the design. As these shows how a building element influence more than just the users. Each building have an impact toward the community and urban structure as a whole. The components like facade design, entrances and circulation influence how people moves around the city. It shows how the surrounding building respond to one another. This will show how friendly the architecture of the city toward its people. In addition, the element such as facade design will become the face and represent the characteristic of a city. In a bigger picture, a small building make a big difference to its peoples and visitors first impression. Building element such as thermal comfort and natural lighting also influence how visitors engage with the building. The more effective the building, the more likely it will influence visitors tendency to come and use the spaces in the building more often.
