Our proposal centres on the creation of a continuous and coherent spatial experience that is modulated by a series of (spaces/voids) that starts from the approach to the building and carries through into the interior; and out onto the parade ground. The building itself functions as a bridge and connector between two existing buildings and as such, lends itself to a purpose that goes beyond the typically introverted nature of most buildings. The diplomatic handshake – a powerful symbol of unity and coming together of 2 countries, is paralleled in the building’s spatial organisation which creates vertical and horizontal connectivity through the interplay between solid and void, ceremonial and common spaces.

The development residential towers are designed on a wedge-like ROCHOR RESIDENCES podium that cascades from its peaks off Jalan Besar Road down towards Rochor Canal. The podium stands as a monolith with a fine grain and textured facade that not only differentiates itself from the high-rise towers, but also prove to better relate to the ever-energetic streetscape of Jalan Besar Road. The E-Deck atop the podium provides a semi-public platform that serves both the public and residents.

Community Deck The refuge floors in Blocks 1 + 2 are lushly planted and sensitively treated and planned to turn the space into meaningful landscape decks for residents to actively use. They will focus on healthy-living and social gatherings with features such as Fitness Corners, Party Decks and Relaxation Decks that provide more exclusive amenities to the residents of the two towers.
/// WIND ANALYSIS /// Conducive and Comfortable Environment for Social Activities The design strategy for the MSCP to be lifted off the ground has resulted in two potential zones for social bonding: between the residents and public, and amongst the residents themselves. The City Room is crafted out from lifting the MSCP off the ground floor. The space is sheltered all day and the retail lots are laid out in the form of small pavilion pods ensure cross-ventilation and freedom of pedestrian flows through the ground floor which is punctuated by openings and gardens. The Elevated Deck (E-Deck) on the uppermost roof of the podium level serves as a connective layer of vegetation and ventilation between the residential tower blocks. Raising the podium carpark enabled the landscaped deck to rise above the height of the shophouses around the site, catching a light and pleasant breeze throughout the year. Solar analysis shows that the E-Deck is well shaded from the sun for most of the year, providing a pleasant climate for outdoor social activities to take place, while sunlight remains ample for the community gardens interspersed throughout the deck.
NE
5M - GROUND
10M - PODIUM

Solar and wind flow studies informed the placement of the open and programmable spaces at the E-Deck; cross ventilation through plantings enable a flow of fresh and cooled air through the voids of the podium, into the retail and communal spaces below. The combination of light breezes and shaded areas of the landscape deck creates ample spaces conducive for a host of community activities and impromptu social gatherings.

The overall form of the building has been informed through a rigorous process of experimentation. Through the inversion of the the original “C-Shape” plan, we have created a volume that can be appreciated from different angles, allowing the building to show off different sides of its “personality”. This variation in form stands in contrast to the original which was conceived as a pure extrusion.

FACADE TYPE 1 Expansive balconies that are open to the sky, extend out from a curtain wall facade to allow for 180 degree panoramas of the surroundings, additionally double height garden spaces are introduced for the enjoyment of residents.
FACADE TYPE 2
Sheltered balconies are framed by large portals that define the overall form of the architecture. The curved balconies increase in depth towards the top of the development, allowing for outdoor dining and other family oriented activities.
The overall effect created by the interaction between the 2 facade types helps to create a unique and distinctive aesthetic that is both functional and iconic.

It all began with a simple thought: “The existing building’s green roof wants to say a lot. Elevated now and animated now; An exploration of what the wonders Green Technology may allow. The airy Atrium works as a Lobby ‘lung’ At the nodal intersections of each programmed ribbon flung. There’s a Lab Strip, an Office Strip, Public Education; Green Roofs for each, and one for Demonstrations. Stormwater bioswales, Rain Garden slope-flow, In this industrial City, Rhizomic biofiltration is the way to go. South-facing, staggered section, Planted roofs are insulation Self-shaded offices in the summer sun, Greenroof solar gains at maximum. 2 Auditoria; Outdoor and indoor 1 Café at the SouthEast main door Walk right in, feel right at home; Sounds of fresh waterfalls and Passive climate control. Take a turn into the Theatre or take a stroll, Through 170 linear feet of Education Zone. Come around the back where great minds attack The challenges of sustainability in an active “GreenLab”. Curtain walls on steel-trussed frames, Double height spaces and mezzanines. Thermal mass piped wall doubles as a projection screen: We want Syracuse City to see our dream.

To this end, a tessalate fractured parti wall system was developed to allow for the free arrangement of adjacent larger or smaller units, while maintaining the experiece of hidden spaciousness even in the smallest rooms and units.

2 weeks Individual work: Design of part of the Campus masterplan for Nalanda International University
The sports and recreation-themed residential quadrant is at the southmost end of the first phase of the campus plan; as such, it is a comma in the process of the university’s building history. Looking out towards the unbuilt farmlands and far-off hills, the quadrant’s aesthetics looks back to the geometries of ancient Nalanda and all its mystery.

滕,取泉水腾涌之意。 滕州历史悠久,文化灿烂,境内有被命名为“北辛 文化”的7300年前新石器时代的古文化遗址,有“大汶 口文化”的代表遗址岗上遗址,有商周时期的滕国遗址 等景观。是古代伟大思想家、教育家、科学家、军事家 和社会活动家墨子的故里。 如今的滕州市,地处山东省南部,是山东最大的县 级市,也是全国百强县之一。城市地处京福高速公路与 104国道之间,东临京沪高速铁路,西邻京杭大运河。 公路、铁路、水路交通都十分便捷。 随着全新的滕州高铁车站的建成,从滕州到北京上 海两大城市都只需两个多小时。黄金的交通位置也为滕 州的未来带来了不可估量的契机。

城市门户
东沙河地段位于滕州老城与新建的高铁站之间,两条 通往以龙泉广场为中心的城市旧城和以市政府为中心的 城市新城的道路在此地分叉,夹成这个充满生机的三角 形地段。因此,地段成为了商务、旅游人士进入滕州的 必经之地,起到了城市门户的重要作用。

屋顶叠落
考虑到前后采光的 问题,将住宅屋顶 进行适当的叠落。 这样不仅照顾了后 方住宅的采光,而 且创造出巨大的屋 顶花园和阳台。
建筑生成——院子+高 层 滕州当地民居多为山东传统的独户独院式,可被作为一个单元。在城市中央可以看到大片的残 余平房密集地挤在一起,占据了大片的土地,却不能达到较好的城市景观和居住效率。与此相 反,城市中大量新建的商品住宅却一味追却容积率,而丧失了原来良好的居住环境。 在这种 背景下,新建住区的建筑仿效柯布西耶提倡的多米诺式住宅单体,通过单元体的堆砌、组合和 错动,形成最终的山形住宅。 住宅不仅为每一户住户提供了良好的南向采光和南北通风,而 且通过上下屋顶的叠落,创造出巨大的阳台和屋顶花园,为当地居民找回院子的美好回忆。

Inspired by the way naturalcaves and slot canyons are carved out by the elements, the form of the medical health centre is influenced by the natural forces of pedestrian flow through the site. The ground floor is kept open to allow pedestrians to continue using the site as a shortcut through chinatown, and to allow in wind and light.

A sanctuary in the chaos of nature, a made object of geometries guided by the ratios of the site’s railway bridge cage. Hanging half-hidden below the tracks leading to the bridge, the struc ture is a folded shell pierced by light, invaded by nature but safe from it.

The name is Tagalog for “Climb together”; a spiraling floorpan provides more space in each 12-person dorm for shared areas. Simple materials and processes are used for lower costs and greater ease of building without the need for highly skilled labour. Woven screens and walls of varying opacity create an introverted scheme to draw inhabitants together.
6 weeks Tay Kheng Soon Individually design part of the masterplan Chosen for CityEx 2010 exhibition
A modern recreation of the local vernacular Nipa hut, the dorm is raised on stilts and has facades reminiscent of the opaque architecture of the Philippine vernacular roof. The pitched roof is no more, but the void created by the spiraling decks satisfies the dweller’s instinctive desire to have an orientating vaulting space overhead, what the Philippine people call the Spirit Space.

Concrete-filled Bamboo columns and beams support the upward-spiraling bamboo platforms, on which are the dormitory bunk-beds. Walls on the lower more public levels are translucent woven bamboo screens in decorative traditional and modern patterns. Upper levels walls by the beds are opaque breatheable walls of staggered half-culms of bamboo and sliding windows.

Rain and wind change the character of the space sound; the structure translates the sounds of through nature into a language the city can understand. Design began with an awarenessof the pervasive street sounds, and a memory triggered by the sound of rain on metal. I suspect this ‘memory’ was born of my parent’s and grandparents’ stories of their childhood - of monsoon rains on simple metal roofing, a sound that used to be a much more common memory in the region’s history. is an old building material new Copper to the site. The weathering of the metal
with acid and moisture forms a patina, a truthful chart of time passed.
The area around the site is layered thick with history, but the passage of time is not marked. Many conserved buildings on the site have been rebuilt, with new programmes inserted into new old shells.
