CO-LIVING 2.0 MACHINED SPACES, HUMAN RELATIONSHIPS COURSE MASTERS THESIS DURATION 6 MONTHS YEAR 2019 INSTRUCTOR SAM CONRAD JOYCE SITE ONE-NORTH, SINGAPORE

Ever since co-living emerged as a housing typology in the past decade, it continues to face teething issues worldwide. This thesis seeks to tackle these issues: Can co-living as a housing typology address the urgent housing need of the future? Can co-living remain accessible and relevant to its residents? Can co-living continue to foster tightlyknitted communities, even as more and more people from diverse backgrounds and personalities join the community? Can we leverage on computational algorithms to generate favourable living conditions solely based upon a resident’s personality and character? A parameter which is quantifiable, absolute and deterministic? The thesis design methodology begins with classifying various behavioural traits of residents, associating them with ideal spatial patterns, using algorithms to generate agglomeration of these spatial patterns and optimising it, before allocating residents to their rooms based on their living preference and social patterns.

[ MACHINED SPACES, HUMAN RELATIONSHIPS ]

DO YOU SEEK TO STAY WITH LIKE-MINDED PEOPLE? OR PERHAPS MIX WITH THE LOUD AND WILD? OR MAYBE FIND YOUR NEXT BUSINESS PARTNER OR FUTURE SWEETHEART, ALL WITHIN A LIVE-WORK-PLAY COLIVING ENVIRONMENT?

LET OUR A.I. MODERATOR DESIGN THE BEST SPATIAL CONFIGURATION FOR YOUR HABITATION NEEDS, AND ORCHESTRATE THE IDEAL SOCIAL INTERACTIONS THAT SUIT YOUR LIFESTYLE AND AMBITIONS...

EXCERPTS

“Today we live in our little echo chambers of information and are surrounded by so much likemindedness. It’s lovely that despite this bubble creation, when people are asked, they’d prefer to live with people who are different to them.” Irene Pereyra, founder of Anton & Irene, and “One Shared House 2030”

EXCERPTS

“I’ve lived in squats and communes before, so I immediately bought into the ethos of this place, but the reality is really different. I thought it would be young professionals, but they’re letting everyone in. It’s like creating a home for cats, but letting dogs and llamas move in. And have you seen the cameras? They don’t trust us here.” Willie, resident at The Collective (Old Oak)

8

EXCERPTS

“We are trying to match people where possible but the most important thing is to make it seem as though we’ve done nothing. People won’t really know but in fact we have internally spent alot of time trying to understand who they are and what their interests are and what they’re looking for out of the experience and then put people together based on that information.” Ed Thomas, community manager at The Collective (Old Oak) EXCERPTS

“It was an experiment that grew out of control... I was curating incredibly talented creatives and entrepreneurs committed to social impact as roommates... a mission that does seem a tad overwhelming.” Ryan Fix, founder of PureHouse, a co-living space that lasted only 3 years

TYPOLOGY OF COMMON AREA

TYPOLOGY OF ADJACENCY

COMMUNAL SPACE

QUIET SPACE

A space that can accomodate groups of people, be it structured meetings or impromptu gatherings. These spaces promote inclusivity and encourage interactions.

A space that exudes calmness and facilitates solitude. Through the use of buffer zones and barriers, they provide a user the necessary privacy without distractions.

ALTERNATE SPACE

SLACK SPACE

A space that serves as a getaway from the other spaces, especially when they can no longer partake in the activity efficiently at the default spaces. With a more fluid layout and generic furniture, it allows the user to recalibrate and get things done while in there.

A space dedicated to leisure and activities of low intensity. With the necessary facilities, it is a space that promotes casual conversations, as well sufficient comfort and privacy for lazing around.

LIL’ FARRER BESAR URBAN ANALYSIS & DEMOGRAPHIC STUDY COURSE OPTION STUDIO DURATION 5 WEEKS YEAR 2019 INSTRUCTOR NG SAN SON, AILEEN KOH SITE LITTLE INDIA/ FARRER PARK, SINGAPORE

This studio embarks on an investigation of human flows and interaction of a chosen site, in order to propose new spatial formats of civic spaces for the intensification of shared commons. Our chosen site is the Little India and Farrer Park precinct, a microcosm of multiple racial and religious groups, and a site of historical significance. Through face-to-face interviews, archival studies and human behaviour observations, we uncovered that the site is perpetually in flux, from being Singapore’s most prominent sports hub, to being a meeting point for migrant workers, and subsequently earmarked for a next-gen medical tourism cluster. We uncovered evidences of increased police surveillance and controls implemented upon migrant workers following the riot in 2013, stereotypical and racially biased opinions of local Singaporeans, tales of small businesses struggling to survive amidst an alcohol sales restriction, and feedback from foreigners about the organic growth of the site promoting authenticity but inducing difficulties in navigation.

CHRYSALIS URBAN HOUSING

COURSE CORE STUDIO 3 DURATION 12 WEEKS YEAR 2017 INSTRUCTOR EVA CASTRO SITE BUKIT PANJANG, SINGAPORE

This project calls for a housing complex for over 150 units with different unit types. Retail, F&B outlets and communal spaces have to be integrated within the complex. Chrysalis seeks to tackle the issue of fragmentation within the district of Bukit Panjang, which is divided into 3 neighbourhoods (Senja, Fajar and Petir). Due to the sufficiency of amenities within each neighbourhood, coupled with the inefficient public transporation between the neighbourhoods, there is a lack of incentive for residents to venture into other neighbourhoods, and this inhibits social interaction. Being located beside a major shopping mall and a key transportation node, Chrysalis seeks to draw residents into its spaces by enhancing circulation into and across the site, and by providing a town square hybrid - a reprogrammable space for either small clusters of communal activities or a single combined space for cultural festivities and national celebrations

COURSE CORE STUDIO 2 DURATION 6 WEEKS YEAR 2017 INSTRUCTOR TREVOR RYAN PATT SITE BUGIS, SINGAPORE

This project calls for a modern art museum, with a large venue for temporary exhibits, supplemented by smaller rooms for permanent exhibits. In addition, the museum has to have an auditorium, cargo bay, and needs to be directly connected to the train station adjacent to the site. The site of Bugis exemplifies a bustling city centre, with a multitude of different buildings each having a unique lighting strategy. From the jarring LED billboards of Bugis Street, to the warm ambience of the shophouses along Arab Street. The “Quintuple” sits on the boundary between the shopping cluster and the other residential, commercial and religious buildings. The “Quintuple” seeks to shield users from the hard lighting of the shopping cluster and reintroduce lighting as a form of introspective medium, and as a form of artwork. This is achieved through the use of glass columns which penetrate the spaces throughout.

I NT E RLOCK PARAMETRIC-DESIGN WOODEN BRIDGE

COURSE STRUCTURE & ENCLOSURE DESIGN + DIGITAL DESIGN & FABRICATION DURATION 5 WEEKS YEAR 2017 INSTRUCTOR STYLIANOS DRITSAS SAM CONRAD JOYCE SITE GENERIC

This project is a combined final assignment for these 2 courses - Structure & Enclosure Design + Digital Design & Fabrication. The project calls for a bridge that spans a 3m gap, able to sustain a 100kg load at its midpoint with <10% deflection. The bridge is to be constructed primarily out of wood with minimal use of screws or bolts, and to be designed with parametric computation software as well as structural analysis software. Our design intent was to create a bridge which exhibits simplicity and lightness through the use of wood joints that celebrates the utility and strenght of wood. Reciprocal joints will be used to hold the structure together to exhibit cleanliness without the use of screws. These joints will then be tessellated to provide aesthetic appeal while forming the backbone of the bridge. ______________________________________ Team Members: Chan Jiahui, Rilla Teo, Chris Chua

PARAMETRIC DESIGN PAVILION COURSE INTRODUCTION TO DESIGN COMPUTATION DURATION 5 WEEKS YEAR 2016 INSTRUCTOR SAWAKO KAJIMA SITE GENERIC PEDESTRIAN INTERSECTION

Output

This project requires the use of grasshopper software to create a particle spring system, which will then be applied on a surface to derive the form for a pavilion. This parametric design when applied on a surface would form a geometrically stable self-supporting enclosure, which has attained equilibrium after factoring in forces such as gravity, tension and torsion. “Fibo” is formed using the Fibonacci Spiral as its base surface. By anchoring down this surface at various points and elevating the rest of the surface, we derive the form for the pavilion. This form comprises of many arches of varying heights, which serves as entrances as well as sitting benches. This also creates intimate closed spaces, as well as an open active courtyard. ______________________________________ Team Members: Daniel Yong, Khystelle Yeo, Natalie Phoon, Jan Goh

KIDDIE-CAMP CARBON NEUTRAL OUTDOOR KIDS CAMP

COURSE TOWARDS CARBON NEUTRAL URBAN DESIGN DURATION 9 WEEKS YEAR 2018 INSTRUCTOR NAREE PHINYAWATANA SITE HOLLAND V, SINGAPORE

This project calls for a building that adopts innovative approaches towards being a carbon neutral design, through the use of architectural technology and materials, as well as environmental simulations and optimization. Kiddie-camp seeks to be an outdoor learning camp for children aged 2 to 6, to be a pioneer in educating children about sustainability and inspire the future generations of Singapore to adopt a environmentally friendly lifestyle. Kiddie-camp is designed to evolve around trees, with the building oriented to face the predominant wind direction and promote cross-ventilation. Together with a solar-panelled roof, enough electricity is harvested to negate the minimal indoor cooling and lighting required. Kiddie-camp actively develops a symbiotic relationship with adjacent buildings (kindergarten & pet-wellness centre) through shared facilities and the exchange of compost and planted vegetables, as well as the general holland village community via the upcycling of recycled materials collected from the retail and F&B outlets.

Partnering with CapitaLand, Worldvision International and National University of Civil Engineering Hanoi (NUCE), a team from SUTD (1 professor, 2 research assistants, 12 undergraduates) have been tasked with renovating a kindergarten in rural Hanoi. This includes re-designing the landscape and courtyard, designing a new playground and shelter, as well as the mural design of classrooms and staircases. Our team adopted a participatory design approach throughout the entire process, partnering with the Le Xa community to co-create a sensitive design that would truly benefit them. We would subsequently document our results and findings to further the research and awareness in this new form of design. This process involves preliminary site analysis and data collection, presentation of 6 initial design concept models, consolidation of feedback and reiteration, and presentation of 1 final concept model. The project was eventually constructed in May 2018.

In this elective, our objective was to uncover the essense of Chinese culture and create products that resonate amongst the Chinese population, through the use of bamboo. As an extension, we incorporated social innovation into our design process. We uncovered the gradual declination of the bamboo handicraft trade, as well as the low market-value of existing bamboo products. As such, we designed products that align with current market demands (such as bamboo speakers), and products which could garner global interest in bamboo as a material. We worked with social scientists, industrial designers and entrepreneurs. Most importantly, we spent 2 weeks living with and learning from traditional bamboo craftsman.

KOKURA UPLOAD FUTURE-READY & SUSTAINABLE CITY

COURSE AILCD 2016 INTERNATIONAL STUDENT DESIGN COMPETITION DURATION 4 WEEKS YEAR 2016 INSTRUCTOR SITE KOKURA CITY, KITAKYUSHU, JAPAN

Organised by the Asian Institute of Low Carbon Design (AILCD), the theme for the international design competition 2016 is “Digital City Kokura”. The project brief requires participant to redesign Kokura city by implementing futuristic technology to improve communal living and create a green and sustainable city. Our submission entry, named “Kokura Upload”, revolves around the concept of migrating roads and low-lying city blocks into mixed-use modular skyscrappers called “Hexa-towers”. This frees up land space, which is then converted into communal gardens and bicycle speedways. “Kokura Upload” also serves as a testbed for innovative technologies, such as the re-mapping of the transportation network, as well as vertical farming.

Stage 1 - Hexa-Towers + Parkscape + Underground Tunnels Underground Tunnels are dug, lowering traffic levels without complete removal of existing road networks. Hexa-Tower are up, but not Skybridges Certain areas begin to be demolished for parkscape.

The Green Zone is completed, hence roads are closed off. All traffic near the Green Zone is diverted to the underground tunnel Skybridges are created, sans connections to Kokudo 199, which remains open at ground level.

Stage 3 - Kokura Upload C omplete + Digital Zone Complete

Stage 4 - Future Eastward Expansion

The Sky Bridges are connected to ground at Kokudo 199 and also to the underground tunnels in the Green Zone.

Expansion of Kokura Upload to be planned towards the east, where there is room for growth parallel to existing zoning

Traffic in the Digital Zone is closed off and returned to pedestrians. Planned Kokura Upload is completed.

Majority of solar radiation shines through the central void, thereby ensuring the units remain cool within Hexa-tower. This also eliminates “sick building syndrome” amongst those in the vicinity of Hexatower, which might result from lack of sunlight exposure

Hexa-tower and its central void function as giant wind louvers. They would funnel the sea wind coming from the port, towards the central of the digital zone as well as the entire axis of the green zone

STACCATO PERFORMANCE SPACE & GALLERY

COURSE CORE STUDIO 1 DURATION 5 WEEKS YEAR 2016 INSTRUCTOR SAYJEL VIJAY PATEL SITE SHOPHOUSE @ BUKIT PASOH

This project requires an intervention to be constructed on a 25m x 5m alley between two traditional shophouses. It has to contain a public-access art gallery as well as performance area, backstage and ticket office. Also, this intervention has to retain its original purpose of allowing pedestrians to walk through from end to end. Most of the building should have ample natural lighting, with the exception of the performance area. “Staccato” draws inspiration from the misalignment of petals of the spiral ginger flower. From stalk to tip, the petals display non-uniform longitudinal rotation. “Staccato” comprises of concrete rectangular frames, and this is an abstraction of the long and narrow trademark of shophouses. Also, these frames aid in supplying the perfect backdrop for every artpiece, by guiding visitors to look “frame by frame”. Juxtaposing this misalignment onto rectangular concrete frames gives us the formwork of “Staccato”.
