Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

TETAWOWE ATELIER [Dec 2015 - Oct 2017] Team: wei ping + hueimiin

Front view of the project, the terrace is utilize to plant with various green. Creeper plants are planted at the ground level, the screen will full of plants in the future.

BRIEF This project is aim to explore on a new housing typology to accomodate for the rising of property prices in Kuala Lumpur where most of the young working class adults canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford to own a house. One unit of the typical terrace housing in Kuala Lumpur is divided into 3 units of independant house: 2 units of mirrored three storeys family house, with 1 compact single storey unit for the caretaker tuck at the back of the house (entrance from rear). With this concept, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s aim to encourage young adults to explore on the idea of sharing a land with another individual, without sacrificing their privacy and the needs of having comfortable space for a home. Even with the land divided between three units of house, each family house still have all the adequate space required for a home with a proper kitchen, dining area, a common washroom, living area, study space, balcony, laundry area, and 2 bedrooms with attached bathroom.

SECTION A-A The entrance is brought down due to the existing site condition where the house is at a lower level than the driveway. The entire house is designed using a lot of split level to enable maximise usage of space without the habitants feeling claustrophobic from the compactness of the space. Besides, the staircases are placed in the middle of the house with a skylight bringing in natural lighting into the house, and hence further the illusion of spaciousness.

SECTION B-B The front and rear facade is utilized to bring in as much as natural lighting into the house. Besides, the openings will also allows for cross ventilation along the internal space. For the attached bathroom located at the second floor, each shower area is having a double volume space with skylight on top of it to enable the bathroom to feel comfortable even if it only have a very compact space. From this section, it is visible that the caretakerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s (Shimulâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s) house is sunken at the bathroom area to allow for sufficient height to allocate the bed on top.

The balcony of the project is designed as a multi-level terrace. Each terrace is connected to the lower one with a ladder. Hence, forming a fun levelling that enable the inhabitants to play with. These terraces are also connecting the study area at first floor to the room at second floor.

L47 (extension of L45) Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

TETAWOWE ATELIER [Mar 2016 - May 2017] L47 by wei ping + hueimiin / L45 by wei ping + shien chii

The overall front facade of both old (L45) and new extension (L47) unit of the project.

L45 BRIEF (done by weiping + shien chii) L45 is completed on year 2014. The client initially approached us with a rough brief to design a student housing. He wanted to replicate his experience as a student in London, many years ago and to encourage a sense of community among students of different backgrounds.

L47 BRIEF (done by weiping + huei miin) After the completion of L45, the student housing is very well received and the client decided to get the unit next to it and extend it to accomodate more rooms. Besides, he wants to provide more common spaces for the students that stay in the house to feel more like a home.

He also wishes to make it very simple. Something that is minimal and not loud, subtle yet functional. Since then, there has been integral changes to L45 as we further explore the brief by introducing a community library.

Hence, based on the comments from the students and caretakers of L45, we designed a big open kitchen that can occupy by two groups of students to cook at the same time. The middle of the house that housing the library space at L45 is then converted into an double volume common space for the students to mingle and spend their leisure time.

While the front half original portion is kept, we demolished the back half portion, and built a new extension following the profile of the original front half. From the section, the original 2 storeys is modified to become a 2-storeys + 2 mezzanines, creating 8 rooms with ensuite bath and a sizable public library under one roof. Through the interlocking of spaces,we were able to play with spatial versatility that encourages interaction in creating these intimate corners.

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a total of 6 rooms within this new extension unit. By using the same entrance door in L45, opening is created between both house to connect the two units together.

L45 SECTIONAL PERSPECTIVE

INTERLOCKING SPACE This section is showing the interesting layout of the 3 different typology of student rooms with the multilevel decking library as the middle core.

PUBLIC / PRIVATE SPACE In this project, the exploration of public and private space is experiment through the usage of material and control of circulation.

To enable the desire number of rooms is achieved within the building without compromising the comfortability of each room, the room is designed as a series of interlocking space. Platforms and levelling are make used to place a bathroom, a sleeping deck, a study table and a wardrobe within each small room.

The wall of the library space is in BRC wire mesh which is very transparent. However, when books are placing in between these â&#x20AC;&#x153;book rackâ&#x20AC;?, it created a solid barrier, and hence providing the privacy for the corridor that leading towards the student rooms.

The library in L45. The BRC wire mesh is utilize as a partition, but also the book rack for the library.

FIRST FLOOR PLAN â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bridgesâ&#x20AC;? are created on the first floor to connect opposite rooms with the staircase, without compromising the natural lighting to reach the common space below. Another opening is created to connect the both house on the first floor, right beside the entrance of Room 04.

The opening is placed carefully to allow natural lighting to come in without sacrifice the privacy.

The floor level of this room typology is raised. Hence, the study desk is also the ceiling for the bathroom located underneath.

This is the room facing the front facade and hence this typology is having their personal balcony. Utilizing the advantage of the slanting roof, it is having sufficient ceiling height to allow the sleeping deck is placing above the bathroom. To maximize the space, the study desk is also one of the step leading to the sleeping deck above.

T Junction home-office Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

TETAWOWE ATELIER [Dec 2016 - May 2017] Team: wei ping + hueimiin + Charlene

BRIEF The client of this project approached us to design them a home-office in a terrace house located right in front of a T Junction. They intended to renovate and extend the house to fit their needs to make this house appropriate to have a small office space for few staffs but also applicable to be use as a comforable place to meet friends and their business partners. The original building is dim and lack of privacy from the front facade. Besides, as the rear of the building is facing backlane of commercial shop block, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s visually unscenic. Hence, various approaches are proposed to solve these issues apart from providing this project with all the spaces required by the client.

FRONT ELEVATION

The back of the building is facing backlane of commercial shop block. The view is not desirable.

SECTION A-A

The steel staircase is placed externally, leading towards the rear balcony of the house to allow the guest to enter the room directly without disrupting other spaces in the building.

The rear entrance will be utilize quite frequent as it will be a shorter route to access to the commercial area located at the rear of the house.

REAR FACADE: The brick wall is raised to visually block the unscenic view at the backlane of the commercial shops. Creeper plants are planted at the edge to allow them to grow up the wall.

Corner Lot Hotel Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. TETAWOWE ATELIER [May 2015] Team: wei ping + hueimiin

This facade of the building will be covered with a screen to allow creeper plants to grow. Besides, pocket spaces are created in between the buildings to bring in more green into the middle of the city.

The entrance will be set slightly set in and creating a green public space in the middle of this busy street. The escalator will be direct to the 3rd floor, which is leading to another food & beverage unit.

BRIEF This project is located at one of the most busy area in Kuala Lumpur. It is an existing corner lot shop to be demolished and replace with this new 10 storeys building that will be housing 2 food and beverages units and 40 hotel rooms within the footprint of 2717.6 sqft. Despite the limited footprint of the project, we still try to provide pocket spaces in between the buildings to grow trees. Besides, the entire front facade of the building will be covered with a wiremesh screen to allow creeper plants to grow.

The site is an existing corner lot commercial unit along the busy road.

GROUND FLOOR PLAN A green space is created in front of the entrance as a front foyer to welcome the guests. Besides, it can also be treated as a tiny publoc spaces in the middle of the hectic street. A escalator is placed right beside the building to lead the customers to another F&B lot located at 3rd floor.

Level 3 FLOOR PLAN The escalator will be main circulation to bring the customers to the F&B lot at this level. Voids and balcony are created at different level of the building to allow space for trees to grow.

Microhousing

Petaling Jaya, Malaysia. TETAWOWE ATELIER [Oct 2015] Team: weiping + hueimiin

BRIEF This project is an experimental project on new social housing typology. The site is an existing residential land located in PJ Old Town. After applied the 10 ft setback from the boundary of the site, the remaining built area is then divided between 6 units of house, and footprint for each house is left only 6096mm x 3583mm, which is about 235 sqft. This project is to experiment on how small the footprint of a residential unit can be to achieve a small family living requirement. Each house will still have a carpark space, a small front garden, kitchen, dining area, common washroom, living room, 2 rooms with attached bathroom, study space, and laundry area. The house is designed using an interlocking concept, and hence on the first floor, both ends of the house is having windows to allow natural lighting and ventilation. Besides, from the laundry area, a ladder is placed to allow the residents to climb up to a rooftop garden with a terraced seating area (water tank roof ).

The red line is indicating one individual unit of house.

The side elevation of the project. Each side will have 3 units of houses, sitting back to back of each unit.

The red line is indicating one individual unit of house. Every unit is interlocking with the unit behind it. With this concept, the first floor of the house will have openings at both ending to allow cross ventilation and natural lighting to come in. The roof of the water tank is utilized as a terraced seating space or to plant crops.

OVERALL FLOOR PLAN The land is divided into 6 units of houses. Each house has a wide frontage and generous open spaces in front of their unit. With this arrangement, each house is having their own private space but also able to have social interaction with their neighbours. The open spaces surrounding the building can be share together as a common garden for every units as well. Layout for each set of two house units (red dotted line) please refer to next page.

GROUND FLOOR PLAN Kitchen counter is extended into the dining / working desk for the residents. The window facing the desk can be open fully to maximize the space and enable the desk to be use on both sides. The common washroom is placed below the stiarcase space and a small storage area is provided under the steps as well.

FIRST FLOOR PLAN The 2 units of back-to-back facing houses are interlocked at this level. Instead of the wide facing ground floor, the unit is utilize in a longitudinal manner to allow better cross air ventilation and increase the playfulness of the space.

SECOND FLOOR PLAN To reduce the wastage of space for circulation, the bathroom in this level also become a circulation space for the habitants to enter the laundry area.

“Bean Brothers” Cafe Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. TETAWOWE ATELIER [Nov 2018] Team: hueimiin + yanting

The side elevation of the project. Each side will have 3 units of houses, sitting back to back of each unit.

BRIEF Bean Brothers is a cafe branches from Korea. Their first outlet in Malaysia is continuing with the similar approach from their existing outlet in Korea, which is very rustic and industrial. For this outlet, they want something different and with the existing huge and beautiful tree growing in the alfresco area, it gives us an inspiration to try and bring the entire “forest” coming into the interior space as well. Align with the brand name “Bean Brothers”, we propose some fun ideas of having a fantasy forest within the site, with the [Jack and the “Bean” Stalk] standing right in the middle of the cafe -- a tower that connects both ground and mezzanine floor together.

The “Bean Stalks” branches are growing out from this huge tower and wining on the ceiling of both floors, and all the light bulbs and lamps will be growing out from the ends of these growing stalks, litting up the spaces. The main counter bar are coming with thin and tall “legs” as support, imitating huge caterpillar that crawling in the forest. Besides, different types of seatings (furnitures) are proposed to cater for different groups of customers, and to provide different dining experiences.

“Bean Stalks” twining around the ceiling of the cafe and lightings are growing out from it to lit up the space. The “Two is Better than None” table is designed in such a way that both sitting in opposite of each other can lean in closer when having their drinks.

The coffee bar table top is cast on site with concrete and raised up from the ground by mild steel legs. Multiples thin and tall legs are designed to let the table top appears to be floating and also to imitate “caterpillar”-liked creature that crawling in the garden.

The wash basin is tuck within the exterior wall of the kitchen.

“The Sisterhoods” seating is two big curve shaped table top forming a round space in between. This is a modification of the traditional round table seatings catering for bigger group of friends, while at the same time it will still functionable when sharing amongs different smaller groups of customers.

“The picnics” seating is a long bench seatings with stools around it that can be utilize to place coffee cups or, as seatings, depending on how the customers want to use the space.

Green Rooftop / Restaurant Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. TETAWOWE ATELIER [2018-2019] Team: weiping + hueimiin

BRIEF “Flora by the Crossroad” is a boutique hotel located in Bukit Nanas, Kuala Lumpur. The owner wanted to make use of the flat rooftop of the hotel lot and have a restaurant operate on there. Working together with Think City, we hope to have a new vision for all the buildings owner in Kuala Lumpur on how we can make use of the usually unused rooftop: while being functional, also sustainable at the same time. Within the limited space, we proposed to have a few features that can assist in the restaurant operation. 1) rainwater harvesting 2) urban farming 3) clay cooling green wall 4) adjustable roof With the limited budget, this will be a first attempt in introducing green roof idea to other buildings owner in Malaysia.

Farmer’s Pod @ Collective Negative Space Village Taipei, Taiwan.

TETAWOWE ATELIER [Nov 2018] Team: weiping + tatsing + alex + hueimiin + suzzanne

The side elevation of the project. Each side will have 3 units of houses, sitting back to back of each unit.

Collective Negative Space Village Collective Negative Space Village is an experimental architecture project. This project attempts to start an exploration of a new possibility of architecture via the “productivity” of Negative Space, which includes relative, public, social and political economic thinking. In the title, “Negative Space” implies those areas outside buildings that open the boundaries and links and reform new courses. “Collective” relates to the core of education which integrates three themes “Beyond Architecture”, “Environment and Ecology” and “Cultural Date”. “Village” is the imagination to initiate a new thinking of the relationship between people, cultural experience and environment based on the different scales evolving from the site of Taiwan Air Force Center (TAF).

“Farmer’s POD” With the idea of introducing green space back on the man-made tarmac ground of the ex. Taiwan Air Force headquarters, we dug up the existing asphalt concrete road and allows the soil benethe it to breathe, which also restored the original appearance of the land. When we excavate the tarmac layer, we discovered that ten meters underneath the land is consisting clay, , which reveals that this land may have been a riverbank in the past.

The “Farmer’s Pod” is designed to assist in the development of farming / gardening works. With the soil bed it sits on, this pod is an experiment and vision towards our environment. Since it is impossible to turn all manmade ground surface into green in short period of time, it is only possible to express this idea through this portion of soil bed of TAF. The tar layer was also dug and planted with greens in an irregular grid form to mark a beginning for expanding the green space here in the future.

“Farmer’s Pod” is an experimental structure, and it should only exist in conjunction with the surrounding environment and activities. This structure is more like a “tool” that is placed on the land and is temporarily available to assist in the planting activities: it can be disassembled or combined according to needs. Besides, it can also move flexibly with the progress of planting activities, reflecting the possibility of harmonious coexistence between buildings and the land environment.

Tamarind Suites

Cyberjaya, Sepang, Malaysia.

Unit One Design: Architectural Intern (Dec 2014 - Feb 2015)

BRIEF Tamarind Suites is designed to break away from the typical design for ‘small, compact units’. The building is expressed as a series of distinct blocks, layered in front of one another to give depth and dynamism to the development. A variety of unit types (studios and lofts) are skilfully woven together, to create a façade that is animated and porous. Light penetrates the building and garden spaces provide a notable connection to nature. A deep and sculpted façade casts shade on the building, reducing solar gain. In this project, I was in the technical drawing teams and completed few tender drawing packages of the entire project, such as reflective ceiling plans, bathrooms for both common area and the units, facades, layout plan for units and etc. Reflected Ceiling Plan for Studio C3

The Urban Market Jalan Petaling, Kuala Lumpur.

Curtin University: Architecture Design Studio, Year 3 Sem 2.

Open Spaces also can be transformed into temporary performance space.

DESIGN CONCEPT The Urban Market is located at Jalan Petaling, which is the Chinatown area in Kuala Lumpur. Chinatown used to be a huge community for Chinese settlers and the community spirits are the beauty of the place that keeps this town lively and interesting. However, this essence is lost in the transition of time and the place has become a tourism spot that lacks of sense of community spirits. Hence, by responding to the present community and referring back to the past on how the community spirits was cultivated, the urban market is looks to foster community spirit of Chinatown and further engage the different groups of community together.

Key Plan

COMMUNITY GROUP + PROGRAM / ACTIVITIES + STRUCTURE = FOSTER COMMUNITY SPIRIT

Location Plan

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Park spacesâ&#x20AC;? and circulation spaces in the market.

OPEN SPACES The open spaces in the urban market act like an in between space to connect two different spaces together. Besides, just like how the open spaces worked in Chinatown in the past, the open spaces are as well an overflow space for the crowd. In the perspective image (top right), the open spaces at the left hand side is a small park space that allows visitors to chill and spending free time while the main circulation path in the middle links the surrounding context of the urban market together.

FRESH MARKET The fresh market is break down into two different blocks for dry market and wet market. Within the individual block, it is further breaks down into different clusters. The perspective view shows one of the cluster in dry market that selling vegetables. The stalls are arranged in centric and the dividers between stalls are in steel louvered that allows the interaction to take place between stall owners. Unlike the contemporary supermarket, the fresh market is applying the traditional market trading system that allows the visitors to approach each stalls and have the opportunity to interact with the products and stall owners.

Referring to the program and structure of Chinatown, the open spaces of the urban market are used as a space for publics to interact and foster community spirit.

The main circulation path is not only acts as an overflow space for the crowds but as well allows the urban market connects the surrounding context together. The fresh market is break down into different clusters and hence provides a more intimate kind of sense of belonging for the visitors and stall operators.

Stalls

STALLS The perspective image (top) showing one of the cluster of stalls. The light steel facade allows the traders to interact with each other. Besides, with the arrangement of stalls in a hexagon, all traders within the specific cluster have the opportunity to face each other and interact. The breaking down of stalls into different clusters also encourage the intimacy between traders and visitors. The sense of belonging is fostered and hence slowly forming a community within the market.

FOOD STALLS The food stalls are as well being break down into clusters that selling a variation of foods. The perspective view (top right) is showing the food stalls area and the two different dining experience provided. The visitors can choose to either dine in front of the specific stall and enjoy the opportunity to interact with the stall owner or dine facing the opening that link to the ground floor stalls area that allows them to have visual connection with not only other diners that sit around the opening but also able to interact with the activity on the ground floor.

SECTION X-X

The seating areas are separate to two types, referring to the past program of how the dining culture in Chinatown can helps foster community spirit, where one is sitting facing the foodstalls while another is sitting in a cluster surrounding the void that open to the stalls area below. For the stalls that facing the foodstalls, the diners have the opportunity to interact with the stall owner and witness how the food being prepare, similar to the dining culture in the Chinatown. The formation of clusters to break down the masses. It creates sense of belonging for the traders and encourage intimacy and interaction.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;MICROCOSM OF UMBAIâ&#x20AC;? The project is to capture the essence of Umbai town and translate it into the design of eco-lodge. By experiencing the essence of town in a much smaller scale, the occupants will having a better understand to the town formation and its undetached relationship with the townfolks. The perspective (Left Top) is showing the relationship of the project with the two main roads of Umbai. The project sits on site in a very subtle way with the proper consideration of scale, tone and form. By reusing parts of the existing structure on the site, the project blends in the site very well by retranslated the essence of the town of how every buildings with different color, material and design able to sit in town and blends in together with the usage of vegetation as boundary and the idea of how buildings arranged.

THE “BALCONY” In a traditional Malay house, balcony is not only acts as a buffer area for the guests before entering to the living room. but also an important element that allows the family to chill and spend their free time. In a “kampung” (rural community) setting, neighbours will walk around the area and stop by the balcony to communicate and interact with each other. Some family even having their dining area at the balcony and inviting neighbours to join the feast from time to time.

- Pedestrian pathway is informal, more for convenience of the users - Connects between spaces

Balcony as an important element in Malay traditional house as interaction space Public Semi-public Pribate Kitchen

- The separation of privacy level in Malay traditional house

- The formal road is where the town started and all tradings are lined along main roads to attract opportunities.

- Formal road connects umbai with other towns - Connects local with foreigners

- The idea of privacy level separation according to spaces are translated into the planning of ecolodge.

- Public spaces such as reception and restaurant are facing the main road to allow public notice the ecolodge.

- Vehicular path is more formal, straight forward and for public - Connects ecolodge with Umbai town

Hence, from the observation on site, the importance of the balcony in Umbai is being translated into the Eco-lodge as common space in different part of the project to encourage the interaction not only within the lodge, but as well with the locals in Umbai.

- The restaurant is acts like a “balcony” of the whole ecolodge as a space for interaction for guest, local, and visitors.

- The balcony of all family units are able to connect together and formed a big balcony for interaction between different family.

- The garden acts as another “balcony” for interaction between twin sharing and family units - Also as a dispersion area from public space to private

- A single unit of family room is having their own balcony. - It is located in between parents room and children room

86 POINT OF ARRIVAL The point of arrival of eco-lodge is to express the idea of Umbai town with having public spaces such as shoplots facing the main road to capture the attention of the public. With the reception of eco-lodge facing the main road, to provide certain privacy and not being too exposed, the exterior of the eco-lodge is concealed by vegetation and the reception entrance is the only space that opens up with a narrow passage to exaggerate the curiousity of people towards the content of the project.

The front elevation of the project, with only reception space facing outward to initiate the entrance point.

The space in reception is open and light with the usage of different material to draw in daylight and natural ventilation.

RESTAURANT The restaurant is designed to capture the essence of balcony as an important interaction point in the planning of residential housing in Umbai town. Besides, it is also provides good nature view due to the site sitting. Hence, the restaurant is divided into two sections with a pathway in between, where one side facing nature view, and another side encouraging interaction among the guests as well as with moving peoples on the pedestrian path.

Teatime is an activity for locals to interact with each other.

Section Y-Y

TWIN SHARING UNITS Twin sharing unit is capturing the essense of residential in Umbai town where the house is usually surrounded with vegetation to have shades and views. Hence, the twin sharing units are facing towards the existing nature landscape and with big opening to allow the occupants to appreciate the nature view in their room while shaded by the vegetation. The idea of shades under vegetation and feel cool is also further translate by the usage of material. concrete is cool all the time and hence is applied in the room to allow the occupants to feel the temperature of material.

The restaurant is in two section with a pathway in between.

Residential in umbai town is usually losely arranged and surrounded by vegetation.

The twin sharing room is having huge openings out to the nature landscape and with the site surrounded with vegetation, the room is cool.

Family Units The family unit is to bring out the essence of residential in Umbai with the space planning of the house and how locals interact with each other in residential area. The main idea of family units are to allow interaction. Hence, the space is designed to allow interaction between family members, as well as with another family in the next unit. Wiremesh flooring is used for the upper loft to allow interaction be made even from upper floor to lower floor. To allow the experience of nature, polycarbonate roofing is use to allow natural sunlight to come in the courtyard and the ground of courtyard is leave bare.

The balcony as an important elements in umbai housing.

Locals interact with each other through the balcony of their own house. It serves as a place for interaction.

Oceanside Ensembles: PLAY! Bagan Lalang, Sepang, Malaysia.

Curtin University: Architecture Design Studio, Year 2 Sem 1.

BRIEF This project is to create a memorable place: an oceanside ensemble by applying the six spatial typologies in six different elements. The idea is to design an architecture that is compositionally articulate and functional. DESIGN CONCEPT: PLAY! The Oceanside Ensemble is for the occupants to enjoy, have fun and relax from the busy and exhausting city life. The ensemble is designed based on a playful theme where the entire structure is a playground not only for kids, but also for adults to play. The main part of the structure is sitting under the shades of existing trees, extend along the site, to embrace the site and enhancing the existing context. Besides, with the light skeletal structure, the ensemble is not blocking the view from street towards the sea. SIX SPACE SET The six spatial typologies: linear, spinal, serial progression, centric, courtyard, and cloister are to be integrated into six different functions elements: cafe, toilet, tower, ramp, wall, and jetty, together to create a new interesting Oceanside Ensemble. This exercise is to further understand the possibilities of each spatial typology and with this constraint, to explore more about the integration of these spatial typologies in different functional spaces. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

SITE RESPONSE The seaside ensemble is designed according to the existing site context and try to minimize the impact on the site and avoiding influencing on-site activities. Structure is not placing in the middle of the beach to prevent any unnecessary interuption to the view and activities. (refer: site response diagram on the right) 1.

A popular spot for picnic and camping activities. Cafe, wall, tower and ramp were located in between the existing trees to have natural shading. Besides, the ramp and wall are designed at this spot to provide clean place for seats and camping activities.

Another popular spot for picnic and camping activities. No structure is build here to provide uninterupt space for occupants who enjoy clear empty beach.

Jetty is located at less popular swimming spot to allow exisitng swimming activities to carry on without being blocked by the jetty.

Clear space to allow kite flying activities.

SPINAL - WALL The wall is arranged in a way that embracing the existing trees on site. It is the main elements of the â&#x20AC;&#x153;playâ&#x20AC;? idea. The wall varies in height, by the different arrangement of the design, steps and seats are formed on the wall. Peoples can play around with the wall, climb up and down, sit on, lean to, hang on, go through, hide and seek... It is up to the occupants to discover the possibility of this structure as they like.

SERIAL PROGRESSION - TOWER Three towers in different height is placed align to each other and have a connection with the wall structure. The design of the tower is to have a playable tower for both kids and adults. Each tower has different methods to reach the top of the tower from ground, either by net climbing, ladder, or step platforms. The tower is also accessible from the wall structure through the ramp. Under the second tower, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s two tyre swings. Besides, the second and third tower connecting to each other by a bridge around 3.5 meters high which leads to last tower which having a slide.

Interpreting + Communicating Architecture The Balancing Barn, UK. (by MVRDV)

Curtin University: Architecture Techniques, Year 2 Sem 2.

BRIEF This project is focuses on interpreting + communicating architecture by understanding and applying techniques of reading, drawing, modelling and photographing architecture. It aims to further develop the skills in the application of techniques in creative thinking, model making, photography, graphics and digital imaging, for the purposes of effective communication in the contexts of architectural design, as application to both learning and professional practice.

The idea is to challenge the traditional barn which sits on the ground and push it into the landscape without harming the nature.

The rigid steel structure of the building holds the body of the barn. With the help of the central concrete core and the thick concrete slab, the building is able to cantilever over the slope, hanging free.

THE BALANCING BARN Balancing Barn is a holiday rental home located at Suffolk, UK. The barn is a mixture of modern architecture and engineering with a dramatic response to the countryside setting. The most exciting part of the barn is that half of the structure is cantilevered over a slope, without any structure under it. The structure of this building made this idea possible by precise counterweighing to prevent the free hanging part of the building tumble over the slope. Hence, the barn gives a wide view over the Suffolk landscape, adjacent lake and gardens.

Section of Balancing Barn

The balancing barn is having 5 modules of structure hanging free without anything supporting underneath. 4 modules length of thick concrete base with 2 modules of central concrete core is used to counterbalance the structure to make it balance.

TOUCHSTONE The touchstone is experimenting about the counterbalance act in the balancing barn. The idea is to test on how the counterbalance act allows free hanging design. At first, the structure is not balanced and tilted to the longer free hanging side. The screw which acts as the counterweight is then been adjust in anti-clockwise direction until the structure is balanced.

EXPLORATIVE MODEL 01 The 400mm thick concrete slab and concrete central core are helping the balancing barn in counterbalanced the cantilevered structure. The piece of “concrete slab” is slotted in to the transparent compartment first. It’s proven that the slab alone is insufficient to hold back the weight of whole structure. Hence, the “central core” is slotted in place. The barn is hence, stable.

EXPLORATIVE MODEL 02 There’s two different balancing scales with various center points. Different amount of weights can be tested on the balancing scale to study the relationship of the center point with the amount of counterbalancing needed to balance up the scale.

The mock up is testing on the counterbalance acts of the Balancing Barn. It is placed at a 6:4 proportion to mimic the central point of the building. It is shown that the 400mm thick concrete slab is not enough to enable the structure to balance. Only with the existing of both concrete slab and central core, the counterbalance act is fulfilled.

The Imagining Rooms Umbai, Melaka, Malaysia.

Curtin University: Architecture Design Studio, Year 2 Sem 2.

BRIEF This project is designed to test and explore the ability of observation, abstraction and imagination. Three rooms are designed according to a specific part of Umbai province, and each room conceives a principle that abstracted from the understanding of the given context. The design demonstrates the understanding on the given context, the abstraction of principles from that context and the envisaging of new interior landscapes based on that understanding.

ROOM 2 - FLOW Darkness in the room with only diffusing light on the series of constantly distributed steps leads occupants move calmly without knowing where the journey ends.

SMOOTH FLOW

KEY PLAN

From off-site research made on Umbai town, it is a town that famous with its grilled fish and as a transition spot where people depart from here to the tourism spot, Pulau Besar. Basically the town gives an impression that it is not very developed but just able to sustain itself. TOWARD UNCERTAINTY

The House of ‘Dhil & Noor’

Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque, Putrajaya, Malaysia.

Limkokwing University of Creative Technology: Architecture Design Studio, Year 3 Sem 2.

BRIEF The House of ‘Dhil & Noor’ demonstrates the ability on composition of light and shadow within a space of mass worship through apertures ‘Mukarnas’. It is a test of one’s architectural knowledge and imagination to provide what is commonly perceived as the ‘Devine Light’ penetrating praying hall and other ancillary spaces as rituals are performed. SECTIONAL MODEL (GROUP PROJECT) The section of the Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque located at Putrajaya is studied and a sectional model is made to study about the fundamental of a mosque. The section cut through the main prayer hall and showcase the Minarets, Mashrabiyah (screen), the Mimbar, Mihrab inside the mosque.

TRANQUILITY The main prayer hall of the Steel Mosque is majestic. During daytime, sunlight passing through the opening and lighten up the spaces. Shadows are casted on the floor when the light passing through the wall behinds the Mihrab and creates an interesting pattern on the floor. The main prayer hall has no extra decoration and enables the patrons to focus and get close to God. Natural lighting in the main prayer hall softly lit up the huge spaces and creates a sense of tranquility that enable the patrons to get their mind isolate from the outside world and experience complete calmness.

112

THE SERENITY The pool is located at the side of the main prayer hall. Natural sunlight penetrates into the mosque through the openings and enables the columns of the building to reflect on the water. When the wind blows, ripples are formed and creates interesting pattern on the surface of the water. The patrons are able to have a great view of Putrajaya City when they are looking out of the openings. The overall experiences enable the patrons to feel the complete serenity from the core of the heart.

113

THE ASPIRE The natural sunlight leads the patrons to the main prayer hall through the staircases. The strong lights on top shows a great contrast with the lower level. The gradual changes of the level of lighting are providing the patrons a sense of aspire, which leads them to a brighter side of world. Hence, the journey of the patrons travel from the spaces below to the main prayer halls through the staircases also reflects the path towards God.

Sectional perspective drawing of the apartment blocks and the linear park

BRIEF Community design is both tangible and intangible design for a certain community by understanding their needs and site context. This design workshop involves intangible design (programs that can cultivate the participators) to visualise the process of a community develops and tangible design (architectural approach) to solve various social issues faced by the community in Seksyen 17.

OVERVIEW An abandoned and underused existing linear green space located in Section 17, Petaling Jaya is chosen to be the target site in this workshop.

Public green spaces shall not be only exist as a patch of green but integrated, responsive, and sensitive to the daily life of the people using it.

Throughout the workshop, we lead the students on the methods on data collections, making community engagement, and tabulate the data to come out with a solution proposal for the linear park.

This project is aim to explore and rethink the possibilities of public green spaces in an urban setting and to redefine how the existing community integrate with the public space, and from the research, revitalize existing underused public spaces to benefits the existing and extended community of the area.

A group of students from UCSI Architecture Program is joining us in this workshop to go through a series of urban study and collect data from the community, to identify the existing issues and challenges.

Some external speakers are also invited during the workshop to give some insights to the students on how to revitalize a space, and to learn from few urban park projects proposed by various architeture office in another context to give a better idea on how to design a park.

“TRACING ITALO CALVINO” EXHIBITION (nov 2016) Position: Head of Curator (affiliation under booku)

“BOOKU”

BRIEF

Booku is architects initiated, book space committed to the exchange of cultural knowledge within a multidisciplinary community. Booku is dedicated to promote literature whilst facilitating and showcasing architecture through exhibition, discourse and education.

After delved in Italo Calvino’s reading for 10 sessions over 10 months, some reading sessions are exceptionally successful where the seed of reading has spark up more ideas of re-creating the creation. Hence, Booku decided to put together fruits of the reading, discourse and recreation in an exhibition held in the book space.

Booku (culmination of Malay word ‘buku’ and English’s ‘book’) was established in December 2015 to envision a new typology of spatial democracy, enabling private and public space to evolve and live co-existingly. In a city that is rapidly urbanised, architects, artists and designers must be open to challenge the boundary of ideas and space in order to be progressive and relevant.

With the interesting architecture of the bookspace, we curated the exhibits in such a way that they utilize all the different characteristics of the spaces to showcasing the readings, interesting conversation and discourse and most importantly doodle, sketch, art, audio and photography re-creation from all of the talented readers!

“COSMICOMICS TOYSCAPE” WORKSHOP (mar - jun 2017) Position: Co-Curator (affiliation under booku)

BRIEF

TOY MAKING WORKSHOP

Cosmicomics Toyscape is an artwork comprising a series of toys inspired from the literature ‘Cosmicomics’ by Italo Calvino. Cosmicomics is a fictional novel which tells enchanting stories about the universe that derives imagination with scientific facts and phenomenon’s in cosmology. The intention of the toys is inspire possibility and provide an exciting introduction to science from common interpretations of the text book. The toys would not only convey stories from ‘Cosmicomics’ but it would also convey scientific concepts such as movement, probability and color formation in a manner that can be enjoyable and appreciated by a younger audience.

A 3 months long workshop is held prior to the exhibition in Georgetown Festival to kick start the toy making process.

This project consists of collective works from 16 enthusiastic designers in groups to produce 6 life size toys, based and extracted from 6 different stories from ‘Cosmicomics’ . Drawing inspiration from the story they will envision and create toys that will be interactive and relatable for children, bridging factual concepts and the narrative of ‘Cosmicomics’.

16 toymakers are gathered to have a briefing session and digest the short stories they chose in “Cosmicomics” before the brainstorming session is held to translate these stories into an interactive toy. The ideas are then tested in 3D printing and laser cutting studio in miniature form before we carry out the toy-making process in timber workshop. In the timber workshop, these 1:1 interactive toy is designed and cast in timber structure by the toymakers, with an idea of these toys are able to be flat-pack to be transport from Kuala Lumpur to Penang for the exhibition.

Drawing inspiration from the story they will envision and create toys that will be interactive and relatable for children, bridging factual concepts and the narrative of ‘Cosmicomics’.

“What is toy? Are toys only for kids?” We ask, and were asked by this question throughout the 3-months of toy-making process. No clear answers were given, but if the question makes you re-think, it’s worth asking.

Our participant has come up with 6 interactive toy based and extracted from these 6 different stories from <Cosmicomics> : 01. The Distance of the Moon 03. A Sign in Space 05. Without Colours 06. Games without ends 08. How much shall we bet? 11. The light years

With various thoughts swimming around in mind, with each line sketched on papers, with every cut etched on wooden surfaces, with every failure and retry, and going through this process back and forth...aren’t all these similar with “playing a toy”? Thus, this “toy” is for everyone who never loose their inner-child.

“RIPAT” ART INSTALLATION by PublikART (sep 2017) Position: Volunteer

BRIEF PublikArt is a place making initiative that seek to increase the livability and cultural vitality of Iskandar Puteri Public Art Program to commemorate the 10th Anniversary of Iskandar Malaysia. It is a Khazanah National Initiative supported by UEM Sunrise Berhad, Medini Iskandar Malaysia, Educity, Puteri Habour Retail. PublikArt is developed and project managed by Lab DNA.

The overall effect of “RIPAT” made out of mild steel as structural framing and locally source recycled timber have been combined which allows installation of other sculptures within it.

Fortunately, LPPL has been selected as one of the artist in this project. This art intallation is aimed to depict an imainative beast named “RIPAT” (word play of “Tapir”) who fight back against human’s development and swallow everything that comes onto its path.

Besides, we have been carefully selected the fushing net to cover on the RIPAT’s legs to allow the climbing plant to climb over time. This project is not complete until the plants cover the beast entirely.

A series of transmission sound PVC pipe have been insert playfully in the RIPAT’s body which represent the blood veins of this beast.
