Refers to land zoned for mixed-use development within general residential area as identified in the Zoning Plan. It is intended to promote commercial component in residential zone and at transit planning zone. This zone is generally located within transit planning zone to encourage street level activities. This zone is predominantly residential where the commercial activity allowed is not more than 30% of the allowable gross floor area.

This residential zone refers to medium density residential of 48 persons to 120 persons per acre.
Residential 3
This residential zone refers to high density residential of 160 persons to 400 persons per acre.
Public Institutional
Major institutional and civic uses such as art galleries, museum, government offices, palace reserve,military reserve, health & emergency such as police head quarters, hospitals, universities, and other civic use. Refer to public facilities, infrastructure and utilities services.
Public Open Space
Parks and open spaces are public spaces that provides for a variety of active and passive needs of ages of the community and local residents.

Setup the rules of zoning As the concept is the backyard of the KLCC. The site should be characterized to support the function for the city center. According to the original condition in the site, the living style of the residents in Kampung Baru is forms from many small neighbourhoods to a bigger community.
Mixed Use Zone
Charaterized as a medium between the Residential Zone and Commercial Zone.
Residential Zone
Since the Kuala Lunpur is lacking of housing for the citizen to living in the city center, the medium and high density of residential area should provided to make a fully effiecient use of the limited land in city center.
Commercial Zone
Because of the zoning around the site is mainly zoned as the commercial area, so the commercial are will occupy the least area in the side.
Public Zone
To support the future of increasing of the population in the site, the public zone act as the open spaces and public institutions area to maintain the quality of living.
The Main Concept of Rules
This shown 1 of the simulation the the Mixed Use Zone boost as the largest area of the site. Beside this, it is also very familiar to the KLDCP 2020 zoning plan.
This 2 consist by the largest area of the Public Zone and different proportion between the Residential Zone and Commercial Zone. The distribution of the Residential Zone is distribute like the branches and the other is form as a large block. 2 of the simulation shown that the different between the patterns of the Mixed Use Zone When they are same in total area. When we compare to the distribution pattern of the Residential Zone. We can figure the pattern1 is better than pattern2 as they are form in a large group than in fragments.
This are the most simulation that most correspond to the proportion set at the beginning of the simulation and the distribution pattern of the zonning is more suitable than the others.
The simulations shown all has a large area of Public Zone beside the Reserved lots in the site is to ensure it can be a center of attraction of people, and where people can gather at there.

Mass’s Profile
The plot ratio is set according to the KLDCP 2012 Plan’s plot ratio zoning diagram. After the plot ratio is confirmed, the masses’s height will control by the additional limitations. When the lots are locate near the Heritage Reserved buildings the plot ratio will reduce to enhance the visibility and show that there were some of the important places locate at there. After that, the height of the mass will shorten if the masses are locate in the Petronas Twin Tower’s and KL Tower’s View Corridors if their height is higher than the view angle to maintain the views to the towers from uptown.
