These boundaries are extracted and employed in plan. The volumetric form is then further developed with the ‘neck’, ‘waists’ and ‘arms’ as control surfaces for the Sweep2 and BlendSurface tool.

Massing Studies
1
REACHING OUT The concept was to allow for the modules to form a ‘group’ which eventually spreads out from the centre of the dite. the formation and iterations were mostly limited due to the geometry of the module. However this iteration and massing can be seem to be disorderly. 2
DYNAMICS This massing was to integrate more of the ‘Bernoulli Effect’ in the overall form of the building. Horizontal wind channels were thus incorporated. However, this was seen to be too dynamic and seem ‘unrealistic’ structurally especially if 3D printing was going to be the method of engineering and production.
3
BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD Modules were relooked to the ones shown above as previous modules did not meet the minimum head clearance and could barely allow for the intent of circulation and occupation of the smallest pod. However the relooked modules proved further challenges as they were now much bulkier - smallest pod being twice the size of the original.
4
GOING UNDER This massing proves to show the limitations of only building above ground. The tallest point of the building after extruding the wind tower was 40m. Furthermore, this massing is seen to be as too compressed - which goes against the intent of meeting a porous and spatious architectural quality.

Ecological Transition In the face of ecological crisis, climate change, and the depletion of natural resources around the globe, there is an urgent need to rethink about how our society operates and to build resiliency to these issues. The transition provides a framework for hanges to be made to our industrial, agri-food and energy systems so to reduce our environmental impact. We approached the idea of the transition by creating circular systems that improves the food cycle and energy cycle of the compound, reducing waste and offsetting consumption. ‘The Stride’ will serve as a pilot to showcase how our society can undergo Ecological Transition through adaptive re-use of existing buildings and spaces, to achieve sustainability. The site is nested within layers of trees and foliage. We decided to retain many of the natural features to minimise our environmental impact. Plants and greenery that might clash with the construction site needs will be shifted and incorporated back to other portions of our design. ‘The Stride’ coexists within nature, and the existing environment complements the buildings. In addition, flexible spaces have been created within the buildings to allow the programmes and various function to adapt to changing and evolving needs. With the help of movable partitions and other reconfigurable systems, this removes the need to add substantial extensions and external structures for additional programmes.

REJUVENATED FACADE systems and habitual changes to our lifestyles requires time. The design of ‘The Stride’ addressed this ‘transition’ through a holistic approach. For instance, through the implementation of sustainable cycles and systems in the spirit of the ‘Ecological Transition’, the aim to nurture the next generation of entrepreneurs and innovators ready to help private and public sector to embark on this ‘transition’, as well as engage and encourage the public to embrace this new lifestyle. ‘The Stride’ represents a bridge between the past and the future, redefining our approach to adaptive re-use and sustainable living moving forward. Throughout the day, the interior of the middle block is visible from the outside. One will be able to observe how new technologies can bring about the “transition” of pre-existing structures to be bring relevant contributions to society. At night, the entire block glows from the grow lights used in the indoor farms, becoming an icon of the Ecological Transition, a reminder that there needs to be a fundamental change in our design philosophy to consider the building in relation to its surrounding environment and structures, past, present and future. ‘The Stride’ will lead this new “transition”.

To ensure a more sustainable food cycle, the The Farm houses many food production facilities that will produce food for the canteen and the rooftop restaurant, while the rest would be available for sale to the public. This follows Singapore Food Agency’s (SFA) goal for our nation to locally produce 30% of our nutritional needs by 2030. The key to achieve this goal is to be able to accept new farming technologies that allows growing of crops in the urban context with limited land. We want to be able to prove that these technologies can be introduced to existing buildings, to push for a change in current strategies for adaptive reuse of existing buildings.

CONNEXION BA (Arch) | Year 03 Semester 01 | Studio Belinda Huang Reconnecting communities through satisfied needs Connexion aims to provide the connections we have lost as social beings within our very own neighbourhood or society. Situated in the vicinity of Bedok Reservoir, Connexion will serve as a node which responds and connects to the future masterplan of the Paya Lebar Air Base. This thesis proposes for a green node which advocates for green sustainability (in the environment, social and economical aspect). This thesis references on Charles Montgomery’s Happy City. Connexion thus aims to meet the lenses of a Happy City - to create a self-sustainable and comfortable environment to feel secure - yet with a hint of fun!

Close proximity to trees which provide shade and visual stimulation. Seats along the path face the coffee shop, where peopl interact with each other. There is a feeling o satisfaction and comfort in this area.

02 REMOVAL OF NEARBY BLOCKS
There is little tion connecbetween the high rise apartment block and the carpark. There is an abrupt change in programmatic function, which create a sense of detachment. The sporadic placement of trees does little to ameliorate this feeling.
The void deck is bare, and there are no nodes or places of interest within this area. There is a sense of isolation. 7 1 6 03 REMOVAL OF CENTRAL HDB

Eateries around the estate provide common spaces that fo healthy interactions among people. Greenery frames thes spaces, which gives a feeling of a tight-knit community.

Due to the shorter building height, there is a stronger sense of community in this area. Both HDB blocks are close to each other, and this has

A slight sense of wariness. Loud traffic noises are jarring at times. Thick bushes and trees that separate the road and the path do help curb this feeling slightly.

Appears to be an area for cleaning located at a void deck. There is no evidence of this space being utilised recently, and it seems to be redundant. A lack of green spaces integrated with HDB void decks do contribute to dull spaces.
