The idea behind Tamarind Square is: 1 to break away from the typical design for ‘small, compact units’ 2 to craft a distinctive & dynamic building which is supported by communal facilities 3 variety of unit types (studios + lofts) are woven together - creating a facade that is animated & porous TAMARIND SQUARE

The trumpet draws attention to its geometrical shape. As the entrance is approached, definition of the feature & architectural details begin to reveal themselves. Visitors are greeted with a grand staircase that drive them into the trumpet & building.

The street between Phase III & Phase I+II as a meeting point / hang out spot. It also provides business amenities opportunity to be an important commercial centre in the future.
11
The Trumpet also acts as a connector between the building & the neighbour. Due to its massiveness, it will become the terminus point for people who travel along the street.

Top of the podium (L6) provides a big area for mingling - landscaped area that acts as open auditorium, multi-purpose rooms for meeting etc. 09

Schematics #2 Exploration of the primary form of the building by starting with the structural concept. Began with a series of precedences which were approved by the client, we further explored the possibilities of what the structural forms could be through a series of studies (figure 30), finally came up with simple 3Ds to convey the rough ideas of our intention.

Urban Works Co-working Space Jalan Yap Ah Shak, KL
I briefly worked on this project as an assistant architect at Unit One Design Sdn Bhd. The project has three main retrofit spaces the co-working space, the fine-dining restaurant & the rooftop pavilion. I mainly worked on the rooftop pavilion.

Front Perspective
general info. Urban Works approached Unit One Design Sdn Bhd for a retrofitting of an existing building along Jalan Yap Ah Shak (’warisan’ area) transforming it into a high end, fully-serviced co-working space. It also incorporated a newly added rooftop pavilion & fine dining restaurant at its ground floor. While preserving the ‘warisan’ look of the facade, the designer decided to retouch it with adding aluminium louvres; the interior retrofit will be modernist.

ideas. 7 Bungalows – Gated Community at Bukit Tunku, Kuala Lumpur with each house comprises of 9000-10000 sq ft of area. Located on a hilly terrain. After the DO submission, the client wanted us to restudy the brief and layout to produce more pragmatic & efficient space planning. Among the problems & issues we encountered with the previous design were: -
43
Not enough study of how the houses and roads connecting the houses with the main road sit on the hilly terrain. A lot of spaces were not designed to suit their purposes (some spaces were too small for their functions, some were too big) Houses not having enough natural ventilation & lighting, as well as not making use of the good views surrounding the houses Unattractive front facades as most of the them have aluminium shutters for their garage which are on the ground floor facing the main entrance gate to the house
45
//
Front Perspective of the new proposal
I tried to improve the design within the boundaries stated on the approval letter of BP submission, the major one being the newly proposed layout has to be within 5% deviation of the one originallysubmitted for BP. One of the main issues that badly needed to be addressed is the lacking of natural ventilation within the house - so my response is to recompose the entire layout so that all of the rooms are fully ventilated, especially the corridors. The issue of creating threshold between the outdoor carpark & private rooms in front of the house is also solved by simply putting a ‘screen’ between them. The front facade, therefore present a more ‘private’ to the visitors. The house visually consists of four towers, with one tower possesing one room per floor plate. The towers are connected via naturally ventilated corridor with amplesunlight penetration during the day. The house ‘rests’ on an entire lower ground floor made of stone so to visually ‘divide’ the building so as not to make it appear too rigid. The house is also connected to the outdoor carpark via a narrow ‘bridge’ to create a more intimate approach to the building.
46
//
Rear Perspective of the new proposal
The rear facade is almost entirely ‘open’ to provide maximum view outside - each room at the rear part of the house is able to communicate with eah other to facilitate interaction amongst the users. Deeper eaves and outdoor terraces provide comfortable place for the users to enjoy the outside without being too exposed to the evening sunlight. An outdoor dining area on the lower ground floor also is an option for the users to gather and dine with visitors anytime throughout the day.

Apartment Retrofitting (ID) Anjali, North Kiara, KL
I worked on this freelance project with a partner. The client approached us for the project to retrofit his new apartment with ID, with the budget of about RM200,000.
Project: Apartment Anjali Retrofit, Kuala Lumpur Type: ID retrofitting (>900sq/ft) Status: Completed
general info. The client approached us in May for the retrofit ID of his newly bought apartment at North Kiara, Kuala Lumpur with a budget of RM200,000. This project is interesting because we have to work our way around feng shui (the client engaged with a feng shui consultant before schematics stage). One of the main rules is to avoid using dark materials in the house, hence the Scandinavian concept that we decide to employ for this ID project. *All 3D images in this chapter are still undergoing design changes

Competition Tropical House for Orang Asli
The Tropical House for Orang Asli Design Competition is part of the KUALA LUMPUR ARCHITECTURAL FESTIVAL 2019 (KLAF2019: TOMORROW)’s programme in collaboration with Epic Society. The Epic Homes programme is designed to develop support networks by bringing together rural and urban folk through the act of building homes, leading to the development of cooperative, resilient and sustainable communities. This competition called for the design of houses for the Orang Asli of Malaysia.
Category: 1 - rural setting Prize: First place
general info. “What was once a largely nomadic self-sufficient community is now transforming into permanent residents of their land. As a result of many factors, including losing access to forest resources, many Orang Asli now have to get secular day jobs for money to survive instead of living off their land and it’s resources. This results in a lack of time to maintain, fix and rebuild their homes and community infrastructure. It also takes away the opportunities for traditional knowledge and skills to be passed down to younger members of the community, often leading to disrepair and unsafe living conditions. This is the challenge we seek to address. We believe the situation can be improved through a step-by-step facilitated collaborative approach between all stakeholders, moving forward to develop in the way the local communities wishes, without compromising their livelihood. We believe a good first step is for people to have the power of choice. The KLAF2019 International Design Competition aims to widen access to designs, providing potential options for the Orang Asli. In the past, we have had village heads and residents asking us to visit their village to share ideas and resources for housing. Ideas and designs that emerge from the KLAF2019 International Design Competition will be shared and discussed with them for further exploration.” https://www.klaf.my/competition/tropicalhouse/
objective. To seek the best architectural design solution for a house that reflects the ambition of Epic Homes to provide Basic Tropical Shelter for the Orang Asli community in Malaysia based on the following scenarios: Category 1: Rural Housing Housing in the rural and remote parts of Malaysia faces issues that surpass economic considerations. Due to the high level of deforestation and urbanisation, many rural villagers, especially Orang Asli have been slowly forced out of the forest – and the source of their livelihood. They are unable to find the resources and time for doing essential things such as fixing or re-building their homes. The Clients for these designs are the rural Orang Asli who has unique communal, cultural and traditional backgrounds, including the way they build and maintain their homes. How might we propose a suitable and affordable built solution for them?

Front perspective of the winning proposal
Materiality Mass produced materials (steel frames, marine plywood etc) are much more durable than the traditional materials
Community Spirit Ground floor is designed to be openable to the surroundings, encouraging interactions with neighbours. Privacy for bedrooms are retained on the floor above.
Climate Response Walls are made up of breathable skin (mosquito netting) to facilitate ventilation. A double roof prevents heat from radiating from metal roof into the interior spaces.
Visibility Semi-transparent skin of the house foster natural surveillance & encourage interactions between neighbours & the house users
Ergonomics Due to constraints of site, the layout & designneed to be compact but functional. In bedrooms, low wall doubles as work desks / shelf.
Ease of transportation Biggest component: the 3m long steel structure sections can still be transported to site by hand by 3 persons.

Competition UM Gateway Ideas
Open to the public, this competition is to design a new gateway that reflects the image and identity of the university in line with its mission, vision, and core values: Vision: Mission: Core Values:
Prize: Third Prize
A global university impacting the world. Pushing the boundaries of knowledge & nurturing aspiring leaders Passion / Oneness / Integrity / Sincerity / Empathy
Why Campus Gates?
the entrance to universities, but also work as interfaces between them and the cities, and as tools of their identity representation.
designs often motivated by: - Local references (eg vernacular Malay roof profile) - Free-floating historicity (historical collages – eg colonial columns) - Geometric/stylistic experiments - Place/ments: spatialized gates (not 2D passage; expand into a spatialized design)
Existing main gateway of University Malaya at PJ.

Design Concept Design Concept The gateway proposal aims to reflects the identity and aspiration of the university in line with its core values: On top of fulfilling the university’s aspirations put forth in the design brief, the proposal also aims to:
to nurture and grow. The proposal strives for an architecture that ‘grows’ (ever-changing, to adapt according to time) and that it ‘vanishes into nature’, its structure so light that it seemingly disappear into its background of existing lush green trees surrounding UM’s gateways. The gateway structure being ‘subsumed’ into the surrounding trees and thus harmonises with the context – symbolizes UM’s rigorous championing of sustainability research & practice in Malaysia.
1. to celebrate the lush background of UM’s flora, & to use them to highlight the university’s aspirations; 2. to create a gateway that ‘changes’ as time passes (symbolises UM’s adaptability in changing with the time); 3. intangibly ground the gateway in Malaysian’s weather (sunlight, wind). 1

Knowing the Site
Sowing the Seeds
Growing the Columns
Learning from the Nature
Existing gateways are disconnected from the lush surrounding; does not convey the ideals of the university. Not ‘grounded’ on site.
First, the implementation is started by ‘sowing’ the seeds of columns which imitate the growth of forest (in order to blend in); at the same time, symbolises the university’s ‘Passion’ in providing and equipping students to be aspiring leaders through the offered education.
The placement of columns defines the pathway and spaces for human and vehicle flow. Hence, urban street scape and social lingering can take place in between the columns. ‘Oneness’ & ‘Empathy’ are portrayed by the blending in of the structure with existing surrounding trees.
The canopy learns from the philoshophies of komorebi and crown shyness which highlight the influence of nature and aesthetics in the design. Materiality and shapes of the roof are controlled to allow sunlight piercing through the roof creepers - as a way to ‘embrace’ our tropical climate while being under pleasant shade. The ideal of ‘Integrity’ is reflected in its honest use of materiality of the roof - not hiding the nature of bend-able GI mesh.
Potential: To celebrate the existing nature and use them to highlight the university’s aspirations.
