Architecture is often situational, as if there is a metaphysical connection between the site and the building which gives architecture a narrative, a reason of co-existence. In this continuous contradicting world, Im deeply interested in identifying the overlapping qualities of contrasting concepts to develop an essential direction for design. To challenge linear argumentative logic and push the boundaries of all materials to derive in an unprecedented answer to a question, if the question is an accurate one to begin with.

BAUHUB is derived from a combination of two words “BAU” referring to the Bauhaus, also defined by construction in the German language. “HUB” meaning a platform for collaborative environment. The project is to speculate and form a hub for design education for a group of 30 students and 3 professors which changes every semester in the year of 2049. The hub will be where students collaborate with local craftsman and innovate existing technology with design knowledge to envision a better future. The hub will essentially be a catalyst which efficiently harness environmental energy from clean renewable resource such as solar, wind, water to power the existing infrastructure.

contemporary art museum to house primarily the Lothar Schirmer collection in the district of the Pinakothek Der Moderne in Munich, Germany.
Based on the analysis, the orien tation and arrangement of public buildings are in a checkerboard layout, having a consistent sequence of solid buildings and open public space as void. The shifting of perspective in each border of the existing buildings ensures multiple visual perception at different points of the site. The building is to respond to the existing master planning concept and will aim to provide unobstructed circulation and cross accessibility between surrounding buildings to the entrance of the Pinakothek Der Moderne, Muenchen which is known as one of the largest contemporary museum in Germany. Furthermore, to retain the existing weekend market at the site to promote transformation and versatility of programme.

Strausberger Pl., 10243 Berlin The manifestation of this project starts with an idea of blurring the lines between public and private space by merging spaces around the site with a terrain structure which serves as a connection between spaces, overlap and intersect creating a mosaic of spaces and degree of access creating a multi layer space. This is due to the public and private space being extremely far apart and unrelated, thus causing underutilization of spaces. Forming a terrain structure which connects in a natural way to its surrounding and gives back a space to nature on its roof

Yusuhara Wooden Bridge Museum - Kengo Kuma Architects The Sites of Building No building can arise without the use of support structures. They are applied during the building process to hold up, bear, brace and shape the material to be put in place. These structures are closely linked to specific building techniques. Elaborate systems of shuttering and scaffolding have been developed to be flexible, adjustable, robust and reusable. section These structures often require complex spatial pre-conception and in some cases themselves inspire architectures. In other cases sup- port structures are interwoven in the construction process to become an integral part of the later building. In conjunction with the ’support structures’ studio we will investigate the physical dimension of the term and focus on building processes, and in particular on those structures that support the making of ar- chitecture. construction detail of wooden structure

House of Trace Tsuruta Architect Old & New: The Practice of Transforming Architecture
No:4 2020
House of Trace is an interesting project which im interested in, because of the perfect symbiosis between old and new architecture. The use of similar material but finished in a slight different way pays homage to the old house. The structure of the new extension is of lightweight exposed beam construction, fitting in the whole exposed constructionapproach whilst having similar brickwork at the old building. This ensures the project to maintain a sense of memory, hence the project named House of Trace, which is to be traced back to its roots. Extension architecture can always reproduce to match the old architecture or reinterpret with newer, more efficient materials.

MH17 Memorial + ParkCompetition Java-eisland, Amsterdam, Netherlands The impermanence of the human life is what brings importance to time. The memorial is a journey of acceptance and rememberance, it os not a journey steeped in sadness and mourning but rather a celebration of the fragility of human life. The project emphasizes individuality and collectiveness, equality with distinction of differences; It tries to commemorate each of the deceased without grouping them into a generic whole. Ultimately, It is about giving those left behind a sense of closure and a way to move on, a renewed outlook on the scarcity of time.

Cloud Vessel Architectural Design Project: Boat Making Community & Cultural Centre Port Klang, Malaysia The proposed project is to create a maritime community and cultural centre in Port Klang, Malaysia. It is the heart of all transhipment and logistics state. Thus, to provide a community space where the people can interact and communicate between each other to treat the ‘Urban Decay’ condition of Port Klang. Therefore, my intention is to promote the culture of boat making to the locals and tourist from overseas. The site has immediate vicinity of Klang River, being near the main railway station. Boat making culture is exclusive to Terrenganu, Malaysia which will be conserved for the future generations of Malaysians.
