The investigations show the fundamental aspects of ‘primary & hyper-complex’ geometry pattern & structure of Coelenterata, the sea tentacles. Like the simbiosis of sea tentacles itself, the architecture is not only limited to the science of built objects but also the attributes of nature that encompass the idea of uncontrolled growth, fragmentation, fractal shapes, morphologies of sea tentacles system and‘coincidental & chances’ that become important catalyst in the process and measurement in the production of form, space, landscapes in the environment of architecture.

NOMADIC, BREEDING & DEVIATING NATURE: THE HERB’S FARM Year 2 Semester 3 (Academic) | January 2011 | Individual Project Tutor: Wan Azhar Sulaiman (Studio Leader) Ernadia Os’hara Brief & Concept: The heat and dryness inside the shops houses of Georgetown, Penang made me think of how the locals make themselves feel comfortable. There is insufficient ventilation flowing into the house but the interior is cooled down by using the air well in the middle of the house.

The idea of open roof will enable the house to be exposed to more air from the outside. Using the idea of ridge and rafter of the roof construction, the air is used to cool the shop houses. The degree of the plane helps the wind to flow into the house. Movable partitions of the plane are suitable as the flow of wind is unpredictable. It is an integration of different methods of mechanism and materials.

Site Study | Zoning, Circulation & SWOC

Malaysia are blessed with very rich, but varied vernacular architectural traditions that have evolved over the centuries. A commonality of these traditions runs through the region: the buildings that were created by master builders were a natural and appropriate response to the context, different elements of nature, religious and sociological demands. This was a simple natural process that culminated in the creation of an architecture that we would today refer to as ‘sustainable’ or ‘green’.

Context + Concept | Vernacular House & Spatial Space, Mock up idea model

Till now, there still no public services that provides all resources and knowledge about children in Malaysia. There is no purposed services that we can have a studies, learning, understanding and appreciate to the children as both parents works and no having quality time with them.

Children experience tension with studying and sightseeing at school since school are usually painted with dim colours. On the other hand, watching television and playing video games too much could also damage their eyesight since it is one of the most sensitive senses that lead to the productivity of the brain and sense of behaviour.

They need to be in recreational school programme and outdoor activities such as programme that provided in children resource centre. Children will sense joyous feelings when they experiencing colourful and energetic colours which will in turn encourage the creativity of the children.

CONCEPT OF REGENERATING LOCAL ECONOMY The redevelopment is focusing on searching the origin of Rifle Range because it is going through the phase of losing its defined character. It is facing the multitude of problems nowadays which has turned it into a slum image and unorganized. Emphasizing and preserving the existing cultures, vitality and diversity of the site will be the main priorities of the redevelopment.

It begins by proposing the new residential apartments, redevelopment the old residential building and end up with healthy community and vertical farming bussiness to enhance the Rifle Range cultural and civic life. The new regeneration will become more beneficial to the whole scheme and would help to knit the existing environment into the proposed development. As time goes by, the New Rifle Range in future will commit the quality of better life to make the place feel safe and healthier living.

The proposed site is an elongated space, confined between both autobahn and the S-Bahn track of the Tempelhof station. Well known as historical place due to the shutting down of the Tempelhof airport which later had been converted into park, it promises to be the landmark from those who come across the autobahn and the S-Bahn instead of it became the connecting element of the city. In the future, it will eventually be the next icon of Tempelhof, rightly after the historical Tempelhof airport.

The proposal is meant to seek the potential of hybrid programming of learning, working, and living, in creating a new positive urban space that corresponds to the issue of lacking density in berlin. This proposal is an extension of the reading culture, whereby it’s being innovated with the hybrid programming within the learning programme, resulting an intellectual ‘Social Condenser’.

Tempelhof park, which is situated next to the Tempelhof station contains recreational activities and Sometimes holds out big events. Due to the major existence of housing and recreation area surrounding. The site, the proposal is deemed to integrate housing and recreation programmes with the library as the spatial connector.

Aerial 3D Perspective View

Halo is an open building, a strategic assemblage of parts, which connects (city and water), activates (green corridor), contains (the garden as a small urban paradise) and exposes (simultaneous display of all possible disasters).

As the project is in a potential green corridor we planned it as a hortus conclusus –a walled garden- that links three zones; the urban, the green and the water. We made the garden wall like a programmed loop,elevated on top of three active islands and a forest of thin columns. The garden is an open, accessible and activated part of the green corridor for all citizens and visitors of the building. From the sky the project reads as a clear urban logo for Istanbul.

Before starting the building design we have improved the context and environment of the project, which is very well connected to all kinds of infrastructures. Its generic character as an airport and business environment made us design something completely different.

Istanbul has an average green space of only 6 m2/person. It is far behind most European cities that have an average of 20 m2/p. Amsterdam has 45 m2, Rome 45 m2, Stockholm 87 m2, even New York has 29 m2 and London 27 m2/p.

Therefore we propose a repair of the broken corridor along the Ayamama creek that comes from Basaksehir and flows down into the sea. It has great potential if we plan green public space along the creek. This makes an urban green corridor that also enhances the competition site.

The loop is designed as a powerful urban object. This is the reason for its minimal architecture and abstract white finish. It holds the edutainment programs in one flow of transparent interior pavilions.

All edutainment programs with simulation rooms are simultaneously displayed in the loop. The exhibition is not in a room but goes along the circulation space and offers the public all necessary background on a free flow trajectory along the pavilions. nformation is exchanged through interactive led touch screens embedded in the glass envelopes of the pavilions. The subtly warped top of the loop holds the cafe with an impressive panorama over the complete environment with airport and coastal waters.

The three islands are activators of the green corridor. The urban island is situated at the street side and is finished in asphalt. It holds the sun protected parking and the main entry facilities and office spaces. Two green islands are situated in the green corridor with a skin of grass. One holds the planetarium and the shelter, the other holds the auditorium.

All programs are functionally integrated within the complete project, but some can also function separately. The parking, auditorium, restaurant and also the planetarium are all integrated with the loop but have their own dedicated entries as well.

The Search and Definition of Human Scale: With Projection of the Champs Elysees Through traditional planning urban corridors (like YUL-MTL) are developed top-down. It generally leads to representation and branding on a metropolitan scale but also to barriers without functioning connections between surrounding communities and citizens.

The Montreal International Gateway Corridor is not very different from others, as heavy infrastructures are barriers; create ‘islands’ that function in isolation. Our hypothesis is that bottom-up developments can trigger key developments in corridors on a large scale. a. NETWORK introduces a local connective system that connects all types of infrastructures and that delivers stations and nodes. b. NETWORK also is the kick starter into the development of seven authentic, well connected islands in the corridor, each of which has its specific programming, layout, buildings and landscaping.

We consider the industrial heritage of warehouses along the Canal as a very valuable project.

These buildings deserve to be highlighted, upgraded and extended. East Island has a layout of plots that can take future expansions of the old warehouses. We extended the warehousing further Westward through a series of new warehouses surrounded by a landscape the size of Central Park NY. We projected an archetypical boulevard -in this case the Paris Champs Elysees on the extended domain of the corridor; despite its length of 8.5 kilometers it is walkable and it has a series of urban buildings within visibility range. The part between Louvre and La Defense fits the corridor two times on both sides of Saint Pierre.

The analogy to Paris gives us three locations for new landmarks: two on the outer ends (Dorval and Ville Marie Tunnel) and one at Saint Pierre as its center. Each of the two legs can take three further monumental landmark buildings, all within visibility range.

On a local scale we connected key roads of boroughs on both sides over the corridor.

Along these links (satellites) upgrading will start and trigger new local buildings embedded in street profiles and at squares in the boroughs.

At points where the satellites cross the infrastructural bundle, a series of stations and bridges is designed.

Stations are planned at points where satellites and heavy infra (road and rail) coincide.

Phase 1: Infrastructures

Phase 2: Satelites & Bridges

In a later phase the stations define the breeding grounds for landmark buildings, connected to the heavy infra. The bridges together with the landmark buildings make a scenographic composition like an urban boulevard.

On the scale of the corridor we complete the network by linking the satellites. The network with loops connects the local boroughs and communities with the heavy infrastructures and the seven islands.

Phase 3: Station & Landmarks Building

Phase 4: Completed Works

It is made of an elevated linear deck at +6 m. serviced with ramps, stairs, escalators and elevators. It has integrated lighting and facilities like service stations for bicycle and electric scooter rental and vehicles can pass below.

The outcome is that NETWORK does not deliver a specific landscape design.

Phase 5: Islands

Phase 6: Complete Project

In NETWORK, the new urban landscape is defined by the synergy between bottom up developments and heavy infrastructural systems. Because of its extensive layout, coherence is not only a visual issue but for all one in synergy: locally triggered, connective, functional and programmatic.
