1.0 PROJECT INTRODUCTION 1.1 Site Introduction 1.1.1 Location and site description
The site is located at 49, Jalan Hang Kasturi, City Centre, 50050 Kuala Lumpur, Wilayah Persekutuan, Malaysia. The project site is made of 1 parcel of land, lot 49 (sq.m). The land exists, currently, as a tar paved parking lot privately owned by the Central Market Sdn. Bhd.. The land is of flat terrain and existing vegetations are of potted and planned trees. The major Sungai Klang runs parallell to the eastern boundary of the site, with the Putra LRT line overpass in running along the whole of the eastern boundary between the site and the river.
1.1.2 Surrounding Context Pasar Seni is located within the cultural heart of Kuala Lumpur city centre. It is situated along Sungai Klang, constituting part of Zone 7 of the 12 Zones of development proposed by the River of Life Development Project(R.O.L.). Conceived along Sungai Klang, the city centre - with roots as a mining town - exists a major urban commercial district, catering mainly to the tourism and transient industry of Kuala Lumpur, and Malaysia as a whole. Surrounding built environments are made of colonial rowhouses - housing residential and commercial activities- , historical buildings, temples, malls, modern shophouses, and high rise buildings. Most of which cater to the commercial industry of the city. The site situates within a 500m proximity to major tourist, administrative and cultural sites, such as China Town, Petaling Street, Dataran Merdeka, Musuem Tekstil Negara, Pejabat Pos Besar Kuala Lumpur, Masjid Jamek, Sin Sze Si Ya temple, Sri Maha Mariamman temple Dhevasthanam and adjacent to Kasturi Walk and Central Market. The site is also part of the Cultural Walk as part of several heritage trails planned by the R.O.L. within the city centre. The site is well equipped with access in the form of the Pasar Seni LRT and Bus station within walking distance. Covered walkways are also provided directly from the LRT station into the adjacent Central Market Building. Bus and taxi stands are located at and opposite the southern boundary of the site. These ammenities provide for constant flow of pedestrian movement towards and around the site.
1.0 PROJECT INTRODUCTION 1.2 S.W.O.T. analysis
1.3 P.E.S.T.L.E. analysis
Strengths
Political
Techonological
• Level topography of site will provide for easier estimation and management of construction and design • The site currently exist as a vehicular corridor for the inflow of pedestrians • Existing bus stop and taxi stands provide for inflow point for pedestrians • The location of site directly adjacent to Kasturi Walk and Central • Market provides constant intensity of human activities for any proposed programme to the site. • Existance of river along eastern boundary provides for pleasant west facing views from site towards the river.
• The status of the area including Pasar Seni is regarded as a historical and cultural zone. • Emphasis of the development of the area is placed on national arts and culture. • Current political and civic statement of Pasar Seni is of the cultivation of arts and culture. • Central Market and Kasturi Walk is propagated by the government as a major tourist Node. • The ongoing R.O.L. aims to improve the quality of life of the area. • As the site presents the opportunity to act as a historical and cultural focal/ anchor attraction point, the proposed centre aims to address this and also improve the quality of the existing and future community.
Weaknesses
Economical
• Existance of the Putra Line partially obstructs the site from the river. • The site is located at a major intersection of the city centre, causing congestion at accesses of the site.
• Central Market and Kasturi Walkis currently part of the commercial district of the city centre, generating revenue and funding, mainly from tourism sector. • Situation of the site which is also within major historical and cultural zones, places emphasis on tourism industry. • Central Market and Kasturi Walk constantly attract and regulate high number of tourists and transients through its cultural shops and stalls. • The site as a open carpark, currently acts as a performing space used by Central Market, attracting the public through seasonal events, performances, and demonstrations. • Site is surrounded by a number of offices and administrative buildings, producing a community of working adults within the area. • Stall and shop owners are mainly of local status. • Stall and shop workers consists of locals and foreign labour. • Success of R.O.L anticipates to increase the generation of income and revenue to the industry. • The proposed centre thus aims at cultivating the cultural creativity of the community in hopes of sustaining and improving the industry and economy of Pasar Seni.
• The ongoing R.O.L. proposes to sink the existing Putra Line underground at the eastern boundary of the site, freeing obstruction from the river at the north eastern boundary. • The R.O.L. is currently undergoing the river cleaning phase and anticipated to undergo the next phases of beautification and revitalisation in hopes of improving the quality of life. • Harsh tropical weather calls for proper shading and solar gain regulation, creating for a comfortable environment for the expression of the community. • As proposed building is of event-fueled, spaces are to be of multi-use and allow for flexibility of configurations and programme. • Transit of the Putra Line at 5 minute intervals calls for bufffer against the noise for any proposed programmes which require acoustics.
Opportunities • Close proximity to Pasar Seni LRT and Bus station will provide for ease of access to, from, and around the site, providing opportunity to attract and house high number of users and visitors. • River of Life development project(R.O.L.) anticipates higher pedestrian activity and movement to, from, and around the site. • R.O.L anticipates to increase quality of life around the area. • Situation of site within major historical and cultural zones ensures site as an area protected by the culture industry. • Close proximity of site to major historical, cultural and administrative buildings provides site with opportunity to address the culture and tourism industry. • Location of site and surrounding movement of lrt, high-rises and elevated walkways provide for clear views towards the site.
Threats • Construction of the building may affect the environmental state of Sungai Klang. • Congestion at major intersection may worsen depending on proposed activity of the building. • Location of the site produces risk of disrupting and overshadowing physicality of Central Market and Kasturi Walk. • Temporal & Night Dormancy of the area may encourage negative activities around the site. • Lack of Public Realms around the site causes low frequency of congregation by locals.
Social • Tropical population prefers to linger and walk under shaded areas due to the harsh tropical weather. • Public realms open to the sun may fail in attracting congregation. • Poluted and unsightly state of Sungai Klang detracts people, thus the once virbrant river life of the past is non-existent. • Current state of the arts and culture emphasises on its commercialisation for the tourism industry, rather than incorporation in everyday community life. • Practice and pursuance of creative arts in culture is limited to professional and veteran pratictioners • Number of youths frequenting Pasar Seni is low as compared to the number of educational institutions within its proximity. • Workers leave the area after office hours and residents within the area is at a low.
Legal • DBKL codes require a minimum of 6 meters setback from the boundary. • DBKL codes require a minimum of 3 meters setback from an LRT line. • Any structures proposed under an LRT line to have an offset of 1.5 meters vertically from the lowes point of the LRT line. • Any substructure to be proposed is of the maximum of 2 and a half stories from ground level.
Environmental • Construction of the building may affect the environmental state of Sungai Klang, thus construction waste management should be done away from the river. • Buildings currently face away from Sungai Klang, causing neglegence towards it. • The current state of polution in the river can be attributed to its use as a service back to buildings along it. • Industrial development has further depreciated any quality of river life along Sungai Klang • The site as part of Sungai Klang presents the opportunity to provide for heavy vegetation against the built enviroment of the surrounding urbanity.
2.0 DESIGN SUITABILITY 2.1 Design Issues & Purpose The design strategy of the following project is driven by narration through questions of relevance to the context of the design brief and theme of “Sustaining Humanities & Asian Cities of the Future” and the site of Pasar Seni. It proposes to be a Youth Engagement Centre for Cultural Creativity.
2.1.1 Design Issues
2.1.2 Design Purpose
Intangible
• Personal and contextual Engagement – Framing Moments
• Commercialisation of cultural identity places emphasis on tourist industry and image, • rather than through daily life of the existing community. • Personal ties & affiliations between locals and Pasar Seni lacking due to propagation of area as major tourist node. • Practice of cultural creativity by locals limited to professional practitioners and veterans. • Number and frequency of local congregation lacking when considering the abundant number of offices, shops and schools in proximity. Partly due to lack of Public Realms. • Reality of the inability of the R.O.L. to strengthen quality of community life due to lack of communal based amenities.
Tangible • Site as an existing platform and gateway for pedestrian movement for Kuala Lumpur city centre • Exisiting risk of disrupting and overshadowing physicality of Central Market and Kasturi Walk due to location of site. • River is cut-off from the community due to existing urban configuration. • Existing buildings fronting streets and backing Sungai Klang due to decades of industrial development, further fueling the deterioration of the river. • Existing Putra Line partially obstructs site from river.
• Provide Constant injection of Culture Richness and depth into the Tourist Industry. • Culturalise Cultural Commercialism of Central Market and Kasturi Walk to encourage involvement of locals. • Improve quality of life for the community through amenities and engagements in culture in daily practices • While working in tandem with the anticipated influx on pedestrian activity proposed by the River of Life Development. • Engaging the Community in Cultural Creativity at its “Core • Foundation” – Youth and Emerging Adults Platform for culture in everyday life to unfold
