A JOURNEY
// programme_Poetry //location_Genting Highland // year_2011
Inspired by the poem, An Irish Airman Foresees His Death, journey of life was expressed in a long-winded linear walkway with an inception of time to appreciate the beauty of time. Rotating timber frames of different sizes form a dynamic movement path with flexible motion. Along the path, holes are being punctualed into walls at different height to express the tough life of an airman, forming interesting shadows in the space. Viewing platforms are built at every turning point as resting point while enjoying amazing view of cliff symbolises changes of stages in life. Glass floor at the end of the walk suspends one life in the air giving a twist to the journey with reflections and inceptions.
Release
At the verge
“Bullets” Holes
Journey starts I know that I shall meet my fate Somewhere among the clouds above: Those that I fight I do not hate Those that I guard I do not love; My country is Kiltartan Cross, My countrymen Kiltartan’s poor, No likely end could bring them loss Or leave them happier than before. Nor law, nor duty bade me fight, Nor public man, nor cheering crowds, A lonely impulse of delight Drove to this tumult in the clouds: I balanced all broght all to mind, The years to come seemed waste of breath, A waste of breath the years behind In balanced with this life, this death. An Irish Airman Foresees His Death W.B. Yeats, 1865 - 1939

HIKER’S CLUBHOSE
// programme_Clubhouse //location_Genting Highland // year_2010
5774 ft above sea level, Genting Highland is surrounded by natural landscape of impressive beauty and immense biodiversity. The cool climate and the thick forest makes it conducive for hikers. Site had been selected further away from an abondoned apartment. The contour of the cut soil and the thick forest which lies opposite gave great advantage for the clubhouse to be partly hidden and be a gather point for the hikers to either start and end their journey. The proposal minimises the further damage to the open soil. With the space quality provided, it allows building users to stay more connected to the mother nature.

THE PENTAGO HOUSE
The Pentago House is a renovation project for the team. The task is to preserve its essence and to rejuvenate two 100-year old chinese shophouses which was bought while it was in a state of being abandoned and damaged, then transformed into a studio office to accomodate 60 staffs.
Roof
Peranakan (also known as indigenious) roof tiles are source from every states in the Peninsular to reconstruct the roof. Since the peranakan roof tiles are distinctive from the modern ones, a new installation method is introduced for its steepness.
WORK Mezannine Floor
The distinct yet useful quality of high-pitch pointed of the shophouses allow the creation of a mezzanine level to maximise the space internally.
WORK
First floor slab
Due to years of abandonment, it has left this space with rotten timber strips which is not usable nor recycled. These damaged timber strips are removed and sold while existing timber trusses reused for the roof rafters. A mew RC (reinforced concrete) composite floor was then installed.
WORK
Arch Opening
The load-bearing wall are hacked for 5 arch openings to establish full internal access between two shophouses.
Structure
The hacking of rch openings creates vibration issue. Consequently, the strength of load bearing walls are weakened. In order to address this matter, a universal beam structure frame is installed internally for both storeys.

Most of the exisiting window panels are damaged, they are replaced with new hard wood timber (Balau) to imitate the original design. Window panels that are still useable are cleaned before installing them at the reception wall.

GREET The reception area is an office space where visitors are greeted. It has a welcoming and warm ambience, whilst portrays the company’s corporate image. “Rejuvenation” is the hollistic idea about the project. Existing window timber panels and timber door frames are chosen to be installed behind the reception desk as the feature wall.

Type 3 650mm X 18000mm

INSTALLING METHOD Timber panels are carefully arranged as lego bricks to avoid them overlapping. They are arranged in different depth to achieve an interesting surface and texture.

MEET The meeting room is a space that allos discussion and to brain storm ideas between people. The concept is to design a semi-private meeting room where it encourages people to be more foccussed and uninterrupted. Thus, the brick wall is deisnged in a way that prootes fluidity and movement in different angles when viewed at different direction. Two different brick layouts are designed in a way that it creates an optic illusion as if they roate to form a wave-like and movable curtain wall. Hollow spaces between each brick arrangement allows visual connectivity between inside and the outside. The curtain wall is tied to the second layer louvred glass window to maintain its strength and stability.

STORAGE The storage space is an issue for the studio as both the landscape and architecture team shareds the same space. Often times the drawings and documents for past projects are not organized due to lack of storage space for both teams. A solution for this is then to design an installation that works as a storage rack as well. By reusing leftover reabar, a full height shelving frames is welded in place to the bottom of the composite slab of the first floor. A plywood shelf box is created in a 800mm x 400mm module and randomly positioned on the shelf as shown in the photo taken.

CANOPY OF LIGHT
14 lines follow he 14 stripes on the national flag, which represent all the states of malaysia. This in turn, is expressed in the 14 glass pillars of malaysia square. The lines then branch out to form the hands of partnership between our two nations. These hands, like the trees of the rainforest, support then canopy above. A canopywhich unites us all under one roof, one people partners in property. The green prism is symbolic of the unique biodiversity of the malysian tropical rainforest. While the blue prism represents glass as the key element of the design. A material, born through a process transformation, just as the malaysian people have. An ephemeral and transparent material, glass allows the sunlight to flow through the structure, giving the gift of life through energy. And energy becomes a central theme, as malaysia square becomes the transition space between elevtric avenue and the battersea power station.
