ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN STUDIO 5

This project focuses on investigating basic notions of the city, and learning from examples of urban infills around the world. Preliminary Studies aims to provide and introduce students to the basics in designing for cities and the interrelated issues between urban design and architecture. The aims of this project are to introduce basic concepts and methodologies of urban studies and also to introduce aspects and issues of the city and urbanity in relation to architectural design. From this project, I had learn how to analyze case studies and precedents to understand various architectural responses for urban sites and also analyze site and urban issues relating to living/working in the city.

PROJECT 1: Preliminary Studies

FINAL PROJECT

ARCHITECTURE DESIGN STUDIO 5 (ARC 3117) FINAL PROJECT by LIM MUI HUA 0301896

This project students will producing a hybrid building for their selected dormant site. The design of the building is to be a result and appropriate response that addresses issues identified in the Preliminary Studies in order to re-activate the dormant site. The aims of this projects are to take into consideration the aspects and issues of the city and urbanity in relation to architectural design and to develop an awareness in the mediation between socio-cultural needs, the desires of internal, external and interstitial spaces, and the demands of external constraints. This project also aim to explore key stages involved in architectural design development. From this assignment, I had learn how to generate an appropriate architectural programme to re-activate urban site that addresses the social issues and community within its context and the way to demonstrate the fundamental knowledge of Design Codes and Regulations and design within the constraints of feasibility. I also had learn to explore and produce sectional and elevational studies as part of the design process in terms of aesthetics, construction and environmental issues by produce drawings (both 2D and 3D), models and presentations to verbally and visually communicate architectural ideas and scheme .

- To create a space which allow youth to express their feeling through art. - Support & display works from artist.

SITE: JALAN TUN HS LEE HISTORY OF SITE

Jalan Tun HS Lee was known as a high street due to its higher grounds and was one of the early street. The shophouses can be datinng back to the mid - 1880s. Nowadays, the street level was raised over by the years due to frequent repaving roads. This shows that the Lower the walkway, the older the shophouses. Many old shophouses are being demolished or refurbished.

ISSUES ON SITE

1. LACK OF GREEN SCAPE Jalan Tun HS Lss is a high street which full with the shophouses and some new highrise building. The site was packed with building but lack of greenery. 2. SOUND & AIR POLLUTION Due to the site contains a lot of bus stop and close to the LRT station, the sound pollution and air pollution is quite a concern. 3. GRAFFITI Graffiti issue on site had destroy the historical facade of the building. 4. LACK OF COMMUNITY PLACE The site is lack of community space of the local community to gather .

BUILDING SCIENCE 2

This project aims to let student understand the practical application and testing methods of various lighting and acoustic performance and to determine the key technical specifications of the different light sources, understand and observe the differences in the technical properties. This project also aims to determine the key technical specifications of the different acoustic technical properties and to understand the concepts of colour rendering index and colour temperature of the different light sources, and influences on human perception of colour properties of objects. To understand the concepts of human perception of acoustic properties of objects. From this project, I had the basic understanding in analysis and evaluation of artificial lighting and acoustic properties and also had the ability to compare the qualitative characteristics of the artificial lighting and acoustic properties and apply the understanding onto different architectural and interior space requirements based on functions.

Lab Practical Assignment: Lighting and Acoustic

This assignment is intended to be completed in a group of 5 students per group to evaluate their environment in terms of lighting and acoustics performances. Each group is required to choose a case study eg. gallery, visitorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s centre, showrooms, restaurants with ambiance and design and etc. This project aims to let the students understand the day-lighting & lighting and acoustic characteristics & acoustic requirement in a suggested space and determine the characteristics and function of day-lighting & artificial lighting and sound & acoustic within the intended space. This project also aims to critically report and analyse the space. From this project, I had able to produce a complete documentation on analysis of space in relation to lighting requirement and how to explore and apply understanding of building physic on existing building projects. I also had able to evaluate and explore the improvisation by using current material and technology in relevance to present construction industry and having basic understanding and analysis of lighting and acoustic design layout and arrangements by using certain methods or calculations.

ARTIFICIAL LIGHT CONTOUR

The glass dor panel at bottom of plan do not bring in any daylight because was blocked by the pathway area. Hence the whole area only the window at left of the plan bringing the sunlight. But the sunlight from the window was insufficient, so artificial lights are aded to enhance the ambience of cafe.

PSALI is a design method that combines the advantages of EVENING TIME both daylight and artificial lighting design. It is very suitable to be applied in Malaysia as the sun path is almost similar throughout the year. Due to the site was having a tall building at behind, the building cant get any sunlight during evening time.
