Profile Trained as a structural engineer and architect in England and Malaysia, I take great pride in being able to confidently navigate the two disciplines. My interest in architecture goes beyond simply making buildings but is anchored by an inquisitive and critical spirit. Since graduating from the architecture school in Sheffield, I have started an independent research project on urbanism and participatory models of development. Some of this have gone into my LAM/RIBA Part 2 work in Universiti Malaya, most evidently in the thesis project that experiments with the institution of “library�. While engaged in the bread-andbutter jobs in the architectural firm, I continued my engagement with critical forms of practice by the side.This includes several collaborations with young academics and architects, among others are exploratory work on social housing in Kuala Lumpur and also a one-year research on epistemology of vernacular architecture. In
weekends however I am an active member of my community and involved with a community effort to bring literature to the wider public in a project called Buku Jalanan. In 2015, together with a group of young people I organised a literary festival called Festival Idearaya which brought speakers and artists from Southeast Asia. The festival celebrates ideas from the margins of mainstream discourse and art practices. Besides that, I have also been involved with an award-winning documentary project M-C-M’:Utopia Milik Siapa?(2012), an installation project about public space at the 7th KL Triennial: Barricade (2013) and the community art project Padang Jawa Street Arts Festival(2013). In leisurely hours, I would reach deep into the library at home to continue my reading or my lessons in Urdu.

design thesis lam/riba part II
academy of letters design thesis (year 5) This work takes inspiration from a grassroots street library movement called Buku Jalanan, which resulted in a design of a new form of library - the library no longer functions as a passive repository of books that is patronised by intellectuals and the upper classes, rather subverts it into a form of activism where books are curated out in the streets and literary discourse done in public space. In effect, it required a wholesale rethinking of the idea of library and the way it functions. The site chosen is a difficult and complicated one, but also a place very appropriate to create a open public literary community.
"... reverses the role of library from a passive repository of books into an active form of literary activism ..."
Reading At Risk: A Survey of Literary Reading in America (National Endowment for the Arts, United States)
Precedent: Buku Jalanan
“... those who visit an art gallery and attend a performing arts events in a year are more than 250 percent more likely to be frequent readers than those who did only one or neither of these arts activities...”
The movement is founded on three principles: Books, Art & Activism. During each event day, the programme is organised along this ‘holy trinity’.

1. Localisation It is important that the library is driven by the communities that live in the area. It is they who defines the meaning and purpose of the project. 2. The trinity The project revolves on the so-called trinity of “Books, Arts and Activism”. This forms the core activity and operation of the organisation. 3. Solidarity The organisation is non-partisan and must remain independent. However, it makes a clear stance in supporting values such as “freedom, equality

The work is an exploration of the idea of institutions in our society. Institutions like the "...In 1997, the National Library reportlibrary lie within our midst and have never been ed that the average Malaysian reads 2 questioned. It is often thought of as a great pages a year - a terrifying statistics..." public service, but when analysed carefully it is quite clear that it may not be as benign as it may seem.

exploring the everyday in kuala lumpur
What makes a house affordable? How can architects ensure affordability within the limits of design? This project began its exploration through analysing the everyday lives of ordinary people in Kuala Lumpur. It allows the design to go beyond the affordability to buy, and into the affodability to live in these houses. A great deal of thought had been given into the next most important need - food security. Units are arranged in central courtyards where food is grown and people meet.

Documentary project: M-C-M: Utopia Milik Siapa? In 2012, I joined with director Boon Kia Meng for a documentary project that examines the housing problem in Malaysia. Although I was primarily the writer and actor in the film, the collaborative process that the director took allowed me to participate in many stages of the development. The documentary looked at the possibility of an emerging “Homeless Generation� among young Malaysians who will not be able to afford homes as house prices soar and with very few developers interested to build affordable homes. The film won the Freedom Film Fest Award in 2012 and was selected for two other film festivals in India and Malaysia in 2013.

OFFICE FOR SMALL BUSSINESSES AND START-UPS The project site given was Jalan Masjid India in central KL and the brief was to design a commercial-grade office space but upon analysis, it is clear that such a building in this socially and economically vibrant district is inappropriate. The area needs economic uplifting but not through building sleek expensive commercial spaces. The idea is to bring the existing strength of the area and upgrade it with introduction of the creative industries who require affordable and flexible work spaces.

REFUGE FOR VICTIMS OF HUMAN TRAFFICKING An economically self-sustaining refuge where the victims of human trafficking can protect themselves from their former captors and also escape the immigration police. It began with a historical study of Liverpool which revealed the more unsavoury aspects of its prosperity. The project invites readers to see this not as a polemical fantasy but as a commonsensical solution to a widespread problem in the United Kingdom.

MONTESSORI SCHOOL IN LANCASHIRE By overhauling the school using the Montessori pedagogy, the school as an institution of “instruction� is no longer. The teachers are stripped of their dominating role and learning is instead driven by the students themselves. The students are encouraged to pursue their own interests and engage with the world outside of the classroom. This principle had a huge affect on the design of the classroom and had completely changed the way schools can be looked at and understood in our increasingly indoctrinated world.
"...the interconnectivity of the classrooms, with each other and ultimately the surrounding environs - an important aspect of the Montessori philosophy. ..."
One of the most important aspect of the school is the interconnectivity of the classrooms, with each other and ultimately the surrounding environs - an important aspect of the Montessori philosophy. The section shows the active corridor and the threshold space that bridges the classrooms to the outside world. This method allows varying levels of privacy and concentration for the students - the corridor is the most collaborative space and the mezanine floor providing the space for individual work.
WORK EXPERIENCE
SPINNING CLUB KLCC, KUALA LUMPUR (ALT+P DESIGN) This speculative design is for a lifestyle gym based on spinning classes and other intensive training products. It is based on the idea that gyms are experiential product going beyond equipments and fitness itself. It is also about joy and community. This design is centred around a lifestyle bar which connects all the different spaces as well as functioning as a social space.
CROSSFIT GYM, SHAH ALAM (ALT+P DESIGN) This high-performance gym was designed at a shoestring budget for a startup which specialises on crossfit and crossfit-related fitness products. The main brief to create ample storage for the equipment. The design is based on the golden section, where the lines become a celebration of the human agility and proportion.

The design brief is to accomodate the different operations of the startup which includes a “war room” that acts as a theatre for their hacking as well as a sales pitching area. The idea of hacking was explored in the concept of interior, using ready-made items such as IKEA products to manipulate them into new objects with a different function.

STORAGE SERVICE COMPANY, KUALA LUMPUR (ALT+P DESIGN) The client wanted an eye-catching storefront in a local shopping mall to entice passer-bys to their unique app-based storage service. The storefront is mere veneer to the whole operations at the back of house which is an industrial-grade warehouse area. The geometry of the walls are derived from the movements of passer-bys as well as the trolly that will be used in the storage system.
UNIVERSITI MALAYA CAMPUS MASTERPLAN COMPETITION (ALT+P DESIGN) The Universiti Malaya is reimagined as an urban campus with a distinct central district which not only houses the faculties but organised as a generator of culture and art. The masterplan seek to redress basic problems such as the lack of public space and disconnection to transit system, but also reposition the campus as an incubator for cultural production and intellectual inquiry - providing more spontaneous spaces for debate and public participation. One of the major feature is the creation of vistas as well as monuments across the campus district. This is inspired by traditional cities across the world where the urban configurations are not just pragmatic arrangements but also a microcosm of worldview and culture. The main lake is transformed into a flood mitigation pond which acts as a park during low tide.
KAJANG PARTICIPATORY MASTERPLAN CONCEPT (ALT+P DESIGN) This is project pitch to the Selangor State Government and Kajang Municipal Council (MBKj). The idea is to create a masterplan for the centre of Kajang town through a participatory process involving local community and businesses. It was debated in the State Legislature and was endorsed by State Economic Planning Unit. However, the project was abandoned due to objections from the council.
COMMUNITY PARK PROJECT, KAJANG (ALT+P DESIGN) This project arose from the Kajang masterplanning process where we were approached by one of the local communities to help them design a park in their existing dilapidated park. The park went through discussions with local community who pointed out to us the existence of a water spring on site which later became one of the feature of the design.

BUKIT DAMANSARA HOUSE (gdp architects)
The family house is a landmark residential project, where the client spared no expense in the best finishes, building services, and also interior design. Owing to its unconventional contractual arrangement, the project has been delayed many years. However, when I took over the project, I streamlined work processes and disciplined all the contractors involved through a strict enforcement of the contract as well as close supervision of work timelines.
MEDINI WELLNESS CENTRE (GDP ARCHITECTS ) IN COLLABORATION WITH SEKSAN DESIGN The wellness centre sits at the heart of a large township in Medini, Iskandar Johor - several minutes from neighbouring Singapore. The overal masterplan concept is a lifestyle based on healthy living and wellness. Apartments and terrace houses, generously landscaped, are all equipped with spa facilities. This wellness centre acts as a central community centre where.

SALES GALLERY IN PUCHONG (NEUFORMATION ARCHITECTS) The project is a part of a larger masterplanning scheme for a lakeside township. The client requested an “iconic� sales gallery that could set the tone for the whole development. The shapes are derived from the contour lines of the site and the landmarks surrounding the area. The sleek and metallic finishes are to symbolise a diamond-like impression to the potential buyers. The development is mostly of higher-end properties, with few affordable housing units.
UEM OFFICE REFURBISHMENT (NEUFORMATION ARCHITECTS) The project is a refurbishment of a former industrial building into the headquarter of one of the largest building contractors in the country. The design seeks to reflect the operations of the company through the use of exposed I-beams and industrial furnitures. Although a small project, I was given the opportunity to lead the project by the supervising Architect and was responsible for the design, contract management and finally the handing over of the project to the client.
GERMAN EMBASSY KUALA LUMPUR (ZLG DESIGN) An international competition by the Federal Republic of Germany to design a new chancellery in the Malaysian capital in a challenging and constrained site. The practice was the only Malaysia-based firm that was selected to compete. The design seeks to marry the functionalism of the German tradition with the patterns of Malaysian life. The courtyards and the patterned facade are chief among these. My role was mainly developing a modular design for the facade and providing the appropriate competition drawings for these facades. I also worked on preparing the design report and the supporting documents for the competition.
BUNGALOW AT BUKIT TUNKU (ZLG DESIGN) This project is a renovation and addition of an existing bungalow built in the 1970s. It is located in the leafy Bukit Tunku area and on a steep slope with a beautiful view of the city. The design proposes to strip the entire building to its bare structural skeleton and inserts a single horizontal wooden box that connects the old and the new.
SPECULATIVE COMMERCIAL BLOCK IN KUALA LUMPUR (ZLG DESIGN) This is a speculative proposal to a client who owns several shoplots in Jalan Loke Yew. The architect proposes that the facade to act also as an advertisement billboard due to its prime location at an important intersection of a major road in the city. The ground floor is to be open and inviting allowing pedestrian flow into the commercial space.
EXHIBITIONS AND OTHER WORKS
FESTIVAL IDEARAYA SHAH ALAM Festival Idearaya is a literary and arts festival celebrating ideas from the margins of mainstream discourse in Southeast Asia. Speakers, artists, and filmmakers came together with social activists debating in what is probably a unique Malay-language literary festival. The event boasted several temporary structures, called panggung, including a free-standing cinema. It was widely reported by national as well as local media as an edgy and dynamic cultural event that rivals other established literary festivals in Kuala Lumpur.
"BARRICADE" KUALA LUMPUR 7TH TRIENNIAL I participated in the 7th Kuala Lumpur Triennial with an installation that explores the idea of “public space� in the city today. As the country and the world undergo social change, public spaces suddenly become flashpoints of ideas and conflict. This work is a community project, in which I coordinated and designed, alongside many people. It is a real-life experience in trying to create real public spaces, especially instructive in understanding the process of how to build participative spaces and how to design successful public spaces.

BUKU JALANAN: A STREET LIBRARY Buku Jalanan is a grassroots movement of street libraries that started in Shah Alam and now have grown into 40 chapters across the nation and beyond. I joined in to become one of their librarians during thesis research work and have since then become active in pursuing their goal of bringing literature closer to the masses. I also participated in the exhibition at the National Visual Arts Gallery (Balai Seni Visual) in which the stale and lifeless central court of the gallery was transformed into a lively city square by the library.

WAYANG KULIT (SHADOW PUPPET) OF MANCHESTER Together with a teammate, a mapping exercise was conducted in the bohemian district of Northern Quarter in Manchester which exposed the lingering stories of the city’s past and also glimpses of its impending future. The analysis brought out a narrative of the life of the city itself across the centuries and then was translated into a fable, that was not so much a historical account but more of a magic realist exploration of the city. Using the Southeast Asian tradition of shadow puppetry married with African story-telling, the show gained a critical success among our studio colleagues and lecturers. A video recording of the wayang kulit can be accessed at Youtube.
PAPER TUBE POD INSTALLATION IN BARNSLEY This short project consisted of 10 students who were given the task of building a structure using paper. The solution is to use the paper tubes sourced for free from a printing shop. The design takes inspiration from the tradition log houses of the cool climes. The main challenge is designing the junctions as to create the intended form. The simple design won an award from the local council (who co-organised the event with the School) for its simplicity and success in creating an interesting and intimate space for the city.
STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING DESIGN OF A MODULAR ROOF A collaboration between structural engineering and architecture students to design a roof structure which will be tested for efficiency as well as strength. As one of the earliest design projects in my education, it is also one of the most instructive. This design made to look impressive and not grounded in science was deeply inefficient. It has too many weak points and had a heavy and almost useless pivot that connects the roof to the column. It is an important exercise that taught the value of collaboration between engineers and architects, and the need for real interdisciplinary recognition. Much of the failures of this design was due to the importance given to aesthetics over science.
WATER SLIDE PROJECT This design project in the first year of structural engineering course integrates the various disciplines such as water engineering and geotechnical engineering where students make a land survey of the site, recording and drawing it. Afterwards a design for a water slide commenced where it is led by civil engineering students.
