URBAN PARK

Schematic Design Proposal

PU Architects SDN BHD Proposed Project 2018

The project aims to revitalize the existing park, while extending the size from the library area towards mosque area, thus connecting the two sites through the creation of a lake canal that aids in the drainage system of the whole area. The current site has an issue of water ponding that results in the unhealthy condition of the soil which also affects the pathways in which people jog.

The ground pattern of the park comes from the organic forms observed in living flowering plants and the soft organic curve patterns can be seen throughout the park. Also, the surrounding context is taken into consideration when designing the park. With all of these considerations, the aim is to make the urban park the centrepiece of the existing and new upcoming developments.The park Comprises of different zones. The zones creates a journey in the park, and also becomes check points for the user experience. It allows users to experience different dimensions in the park.

The creation of a new lake that flows from higher ground level of the Masjid Jamek side to the existing Pustaka lake will aid in resolving the issue whilst also creating a new path for recreation. The goal is to encourage the community to spend more time outdoors, giving them a new peaceful environment to enjoy.
