The design brief was to create a plan within a grid of 9 squares totalling 12 meters on each side, conventional architectural elements are added to define spaces and sequences within the plan. Project occurs in abstract space, and floor plan must make up both living spaces and a gallery for an artist. No curves were allowed in the design.

A meditation hub that blocks out the hustle of the outside world and provides a central place for respite for working adults. Building mass and topography work together to act as a boundary, creating a cavern-like experience.

In the day, the museum is a mysterious, quiet, opaque building. At night, it glows from the activities within, offering a peak of what is going on inside. The porous, expanded mesh at the exterior envelope acts as an effective natural light filter into the interior spaces. In addition, by having glass of varying depths from the envelope as a second skin or a lack thereof, it creates pockets of spaces that would determine the museum-goers’ interaction with the outside environment and spaces could be naturally ventilated for exhibition or rest.

Mesh scrim is supported by thin vertical supports that also help to give a pattern to the facade. These vertical supports are then tied to the slabs. Variation of the depths of glass panes create different spaces that vary the visitors’ interaction with the environment. Pockets of spaces without glass as a second skin turn into natural-ventilated balconies.

A04 INTERLINKED December 2018 Mentor: Professor Trevor Ryan Patt A mixed-used development that consists of 70% residential, 12% commercial and 18% communal spaces. All residential blocks are interlinked horizontally and vertically, with elevated and connected communal spaces nested within the 16-floor high towers.
Looping Green Spline Further Enhances and Connects all Spaces
Linked Communal Spaces Nested within Residential Blocks
Rapid increase in population coupled with limited land in Singapore has resulted in social housing to grow vertically such that typical residential buildings become isolated, monolithic blocks. Public dwelling is pushed upwards, on top of high-rise sky-scrapers while culturally-rich public realms still remain on the ground level. This rigid separation of public and private programmes limits interaction between residents, causing people to be socially disconnected.
Vertical and Horizontal Circulation
This is particularly prevalent in Punggol, where the public areas are under-utilised. An investigation into the higher levels of the residential blocks would reveal that most of these residents prefer to keep themselves within the confines of their shoebox units. The proposed urban massing features various public programmatic spaces nested within residential blocks at very level. These spaces are generated from a central point and linked together to bring people throughout the building and across the different blocks, placing emphasis on horizontal connectivity instead of the rigid vertical ones. Formation of public programme was by the diffusion limited aggregation method - aggregation of particles by brownian motion mimics spontaneous gathering of people. Residential blocks were then formed around these nodes and links. Massing for Residential Blocks

A05 EXPLORATION April 2018 Mentor: Professor Chong Keng Hua Landscape and Model-making Team: Chong Kar Wei, Chan Li Yu, Rebekah Low, Fang Zi Xin, Wu Kai, Zou Chu Chu Tan Tay Kindergarten in Vietnam is an existing site that has half the school building torn down due to its weak foundation and an impending storm. Hence, this project proposes a new addition to the demolished site and improvement for the remaining blocks. Working in collaboration with Capitaland who will be funding the construction costs for charity, this project explores the possibility of creating a multi-layered play experience for the students while simplifying the design to within a budget.
Concept for the landscaping for Tan Tay Kindergarten in Vietnam that draws inspiration from the five elements: Fire, Earth, Metal, Water, Wood. Thematic zones are designed from each respective element featuring characteristic landscape from around Vietnam, such as the Trainscape, Farm, Cityscape, Beach and Mountain.
Trainscape (Fire) Train-tracks and carriages run along the backyard of the ground-floor classrooms, creating private niches of outdoor play space for each of these classrooms.

pired by the mountain ranges in thern Vietnam, a small mount is ated in the middle of the courtyard to vide an extra platform for play. This o acts as an elevated landing for the door staircase which begins on the unt.
Urban Farm (Earth) Bamboo grove passageway hosts climber plants while a large plot of land is dedicated to grow edibles for children and teachers alike to do experience hands-on farming.
Cityscape (Metal) Concrete-covered assembly grounds also host the re-using of light-weight steel play structure that already exists on the kindergarten, but require repair and repainting.

In this assignment, our team had to design a gallery with basic restroom ammenites and a viewing deck situated in Pulau Ubin. The scheme had to take into account sensitivity to environmental factors such as wind, rain and sunlight. In addition, we had to look into structural details such as foundation and supports for the roof.

B02 TOWER April 2018 Mentor: Assistant Professor Stylianos Dritsas Team: Ng Jian Yi Mervin, Ying Francoise, Ong Wueng Kee, Ong Jie Min Thin, light and flowy - the design of the wind tower sings the same language as the wind that flows through and within it. The tower’s elegance and sleekness are visually expressed through the thin and gently spiraling wooden frame of the structure. It whirls gracefully with the entwined, pure anddelicate fabric of the wind turbine that dance within it in a vertical manner. The cleverlyfine-tuned joinery system supports and conceals itself in the midst to accentuate the design. This exquisite blend brings out the true nature of the wind.
