I have always loved art ever since I was little, especially painting.

2nd YEAR Design I Semester 03 - Project ( i. )

Architecture Through Nature's Pattern & Structure // Formal architectural forms prescribe Euclidean geometries as the ideal representation of objects in three-dimensionality. The Euclidean theory of geometry proposes that the value of a physical surface can only be measured if it is flat. It enables us to describe smooth surfaces and regular forms. Although natural objects such as mountains, gas in the air, shorelines, the shape of a tree, or land relief are formations of irregular, multi-curvilinear, atomic particles, it can also be defined and measured as flat surfaces but as hyper-complex geometry of equations and variations. Tutors: Wan Azhar Sulaiman (Studio Leader) Ernadia Os’hara 08

In this task, we were required to study the microscopic characteristics of an organic item, in which case, an onion, in order to distinguish the basic module that exists in variants that essentially gives shape to the onion.

Groupmates: Nabilah Bt Mohd Nordin Abdul Aziz M. Abdul Satar Jeremy Naming

After a few weeks of experiments with materials, we came out with six panels of wire mesh of the same sizes, assembled and connected using split pins to form a shape of a 3D mirrored pyramid that basically forms our module. The same module was multiplied and joined together at the sides to form a sort of 3D blanket. We continued joining the modules from all sides until it starts to form a solid, consistent shape of itself. From there, parametric comes in. We started to play with variables., creating different sizes of panels and assembling them the same way we did with the first module, but this time each shape was different. As we joined these variant modules together, a wonderful, unexpected entity starts to unravel itself...

Semester 03 - Project ( ii. ) Individual Project Proposal | Sensory Spice Storage for the Blind Spice Keeper // The Synopsis As I helped myself to breakfast at my usual table in Line Clear, I couldn’t help but notice this eye-catching structure just peeking out the kitchen. Curiosity got the better of me and I decided to approach it. As I get nearer I find an old man carefully walking towards it, counting his steps silently. Turns out he is the joint’s spice-keeper, and a blind one at that. The old man reaches the base and takes off his shoes. He starts to climb it, grabbing and stepping on any gaps or surfaces the structure offered. As he climbs up he sneaks open a container or two, touching and feeling each like a prized possession, groping and smelling his way through, until he gets his desired one. He pulls it out, then starts on his downward climb. To the kitchen i suppose, handing over the spices for the chef to cook up yet another masterpiece of spices. I notice that the containers interlock and stack with each other, creating a sort of 3 dimensional puzzle; some towering, some leaving gaps. They gave an impression of being created out of pure randomness, but the fact is every piece, none identical by the way, was made to suit each other in a specific way to create this space. This weird geometrical space that allowed the blind man to manoeuvre this so-called ‘device’ with ease. The everchanging surfaces of each container, to the blind man’s touch, also gives way as to what it holds inside: spices, stored hierarchically according to usage and rarity. The cheap spices used daily are stored near the base in large containers for easy access, and as u climb up (or look behind the cheap ones) the usage and rarity of the spices gradually increase. Further research (in this case asking the old man directly) revealed that the old man’s father, who was the original spice keeper of Line Clear back in the 1940s, created this mechanism when he found out his only son whom he wanted to pass down the throne to, was born blind. This way it guaranteed themselves the job, while giving his son the power to choose his successor when the time comes.

ISSUE AND POTENTIALS The courtyard is the heart of the faculty. Although being so, the way users utilize the courtyard at the moment does not reflect what the courtyard is all about. Being roofless, users seek refuge from the sun under the shade of the greenaries and existing structures which are the two gazebos. Due to this situation, the main central space of the courtyard is not fully utilized as it only acts as a transitional space where users pass through to get to the other side.

Theme: Interactive Architecture The courtyard acts as the central gathering point that houses various ongoing internal programmes, activities, and interaction. Other than providing shade, the intention of the design is to create a space that encourages both leisure and interaction between the users where they can lounge, cocialize and mingle comfortably among each other. A sense of intimacy is created where users will be lured into utilizing the space by injecting a fun, creative and interactive concept of architecture.

HATCH POD

A PROTOTYPE STRUCTURE FOR SEA CUCUMBER HATCHERY IN 2015

Semester 06 - MAJOR Project

Fragile Places, Virtual Spaces THE HATCHPOD // Tutors: Assoc. Prof. Rashidah Ab. Rahman (Studio Leader) Fairuz Reza Ali // Ar. Norizan Ar. Mazidah // Jamsyid Idrus

THEME: HATCH TECH ISSUES AND POTENTIAL

According to research carried out by Department of Fisheries Malaysia, sea cucumber resources in Langkawi has been severely dEpleted since early 1990. Local traders and major retailers have been importing their source of sea cucumber from neighbouring countries since 20 years ago in order to sustain their production.In 19 March 2009, Dept.of Fisheries has officially listed sea cucumber, also known as gamat, as endangered. Langkawi is a well-known producer of sea cucumber-based medicines and products, hence it is only appropriate for raw materials to come from the same location.

HYPOTHESIS

‘Hatch-pod’ is a manifestation for the alarming condition of the collapse of the langkawi’s sea cucumber population. In response, ‘hatch-pod’ proposes an alternative sea cucumber hatchery center that allows for intensive yet healthy aquaculture prototype. The space for sea cucumber was designed based on research and analysis of the habitation and living needs of the specific type of sea cucumber; stichopus horrens. The key characteristics of the comfortable living environment for each stages of the sea cucumber’s metamorphosis were applied into their individual ‘pods’. The shape of the ‘pods’ reflects the depth and volume of the settlement for each of the growing stages of the sea cucumbers.

SKY-ZERO RESIDENTIAL //

Eco-RES Alternative Affordable Housing Competition COMPETITION DESCRIPTION

TASK: Alternative Affordable Housing: widening the residential offerings beyond existing apartment, terrace, detached houses that will accomodate as many variations of the Putrajaya population as well as offering a wide ranging unit price option as possible within appointed housing precincts. The main objective is to generate creative and practical ideas to re-enlivening the existing urban spaces in the Core Precincts of Putrajaya. The exercis will require the students to proposeviable concepts that can be translated into proposals that reflect vibrant, sustainable and successful urban places.

SKY-ZERO RESIDENTIAL PROJECT DESCRIPTION The project of the residential tries to create a new kind of housing lifestyle with the concept of “landed property in the sky”. The housing units provided are ranges of duplexes in the form of zero-lot bungalows. The sidewall is on the boundary line of the land, hence allowing a more open garden on the other side. A mixed-use housing development that emphasizes activity-inducing spaces is the key into resuscitating the urban atmosphere of Precint 3. The strategic location will become an important conversion of cultures and lifestyle into the central square. The project tries to target a wide market of users that covers the population classes in Putrajaya. This includes students/bachelor salary men, young couples, young families, small families, average families and expanding/inter-generation living. CONCEPT

The patterned double-skin facade implemented by the Perbadanan Putrajaya Building and Persiaran Perdana Boulevard Square building provides not only a distinct character to the building’s identity but also gives an image of the Putrajaya Boulevard as a whole. In addition to that, it is an effective way of screening the east and west facade from the harsh glare of the sun, thus providing shade and a more comfortable indoor environment. This is the inspiration for the Sky-Zero’s double-skin facade. It is also an alternative way of protecting the inhabitants’ privacy without sacrificing the beautiful views of the surrounding.

The housing mix and commercial strategy will attract resident population from all walks of life without sacrificing the quality of a high end living experience. A thorough design consideration and careful selection and placement of facilities and activities will ensure a sustainable and viable building for the current and future tenants and users in Precint 3. The mixed-use complex promises exciting architectural and social elements in the effort of creating a comfortable yet ever so lively social setting.

4th YEAR Design VI Semester 08 - FINAL PROJECT

THE NEXUS // Homeless Women and Children Assistance Center ISSUE STATEMENT : URBAN POVERTY Chow Kit, with the population of 35000 people located in the heart of KL is where urban poverty and the homeless exist in stark reality, sleeping on pavements, under bridges and at street corners just a stone’s throw away from the swanky, chic clubs and watering holes of Heritage Row. Usually unseen during the day, the homeless are always around the corner at Chow Kit, mainly consisting of drug addicts, ex-prisoners, runaway teens, the unemployed, unwed pregnant ladies, and homeless children. These group of people, eventhough seen as social rejects, seek help and need the support to get out of their slump. This is where a homeless assistance center plays the role of a helping hand to those in need. Tutors: Ar. Embong Mohamad (Studio Leader) Assoc. Prof. Dr. Esmawee Hj Endut Pn. Norizan Daud 030

“A turning point for self-actualization for the homeless. The environment of the place enables visual and physical interaction between the homeless and the public without intruding too much of the homeless’ privacy and comfortability. This way, they can slowly open up to society and feel accepted hence encouraging them to join the community as normal citizens once more.
