VALLEY
101
INTRODUCTION
New MBAM Centre must be a new building paradigm in Malaysia The proposed centre is an iconic structure with artistically crafted landscape, and a sustainable architecture that is more than a landmark It is not designed as a shell with functions, but with an ambition to become a place that can flourish the community of the industry
DESIGN & CONCEPT
Form
When a common of space has the power to catch the public attention, it then becomes the heart of the building To create such space, the main concept starts with craving out an elongated void that runs from the ground front to the upper end of the building The void appears from outside like a cave filled with trees, or a funnel that can inhale While slowly ascending towards the end on third floor, the cave-like space gradually opens up itself and turns into a valley The landscaped valley is imagined as the spine of the building It is served as entrance, atrium, circulation, and meeting place
Urban Extension Landscape
A sustainable architecture shall not isolate itself like a free standing object on ground It shall be conceived as a part of a larger urban context that merges seamlessly with the public space The front landscape served as multi-purpose public plaza generates closer relationship among people, the city and itself
The landscaped path can function as an alternative circulation linking from Ground to 3rd floor Dining space can be extended from indoor to outdoor Pockets of social corner with crafted vegetation are also scattered along the path
Facade Structure
One of the sustainable strategies is to reduce the usage of airconditioner by making all common area and corridor naturally ventilated The facade running along the corridor is a double skins system where inner layer is glass louver, outer layer is self-support corrugated metal mesh
Bubbledeck is a flooring IBS structure system Apart from being a good thermal insulated material and fast to install, more importantly it is highly flexible in spatial planning The wall of valley is entirely made of reinforced concrete as load bearing wall Hence, by reducing number of column, it increases the efficiency of internal space, and achieves better structural integrity
THE VALLEY LANDSCAPE
The valley landscape is designed to be a journey walking through a jungle valley with public spaces merge seamlessly as part of the landscape It is also acting as an interstitial zone before going into the interior spaces The language of the landscape is the same as the folding concrete wall with the triangular seating, planter, flooring pattern, etc so that the whole of valley looks as if they are a naturally crafted cave
SUNKEN SPACE
The end of valley is sunken so that its border is not visible with an infinity view towards the lush greemeries

SM9. GREEN VEHICLE PRIORITY
SM 10. PARKING CAPACITY
SM11. STORMWATER DESIGN: QUANTITY & QUALITY CONTROL
Premium parking zone will be allocated for Green Vehicles such as hybrid or biodiesel accounting for 5% of full-time equivalent occupants
MR 4 SUSTAINABLE TIMBER
In compliance with MBSJ requirement, 1 carpark space is provided for every 500Sqft of complex therefore in total, 206 carparks will be provided For 5% of total parking spaces (10 Carparks), preferred parking will be provided to carpools and vanpools
1. Ensure no increase in storm water runoff from the site
2. Rainwater harvesting reduce actual post development
WE1: RAINWATER HARVESTING
timber furniture that comply from FSC and MTCC requirements. Encourage environmentally responsible forest management
A rainwater harvesting system will be installed and will have storage capacity of 11m3 toachieve savings of over 30% of total potable water consumption for the development Total Building Potable water consumption is 2726 36m3 annually thus rainwater harvesting will save 1203 48m3 or 44% of potable water The rainwater harvested is used for landscape Irrigation
WE 3: WATER EFFICIENT -IRRIGATION/ LANDSCAPING
Rain Harvested – 11m3
Therefore, potable water is not needed
IN
1: INNOVATIONS IN DESIGN & ENVIRONMENTAL DESIGN INITIATIVES
Recycle Content Materials
Re-sure timber into landscape decking or furniture
Recycling of all fire system water during regular testing
regular testing of fire safety systems, the test lines will be directed to discharge back to fire water tanks
Non Chemical Water Treatment
For scale and corrosion prevention, nonchemical water treatment system will be used to treat at least 50% of total water consumption.
