01 Hills and Valleys “A community-sports-library-park with a landform strategy�

Type : Course : Mentor : Location :

hub

Community Hub 2017 Term 9 Pauline Ang Woodlands Central

This project adopts the landform strategy of hills and valleys to create varying experiences through the community hub.

Connecting the crucial nodes surrounding the site, it created main circulation paths and demarcate the positions of the different built spaces.

Voids are created on each level to maximize the visual connectivity across different types of programs on different levels. With the strategy of tiering, every interior space would have direct access to the different park spaces Carrying on with the theme of landform, the facade design drew inspiration from pancake rocks with openings that reveal the interior activities, enticing passersby to enter the different spaces.

Workspace 2016 Term 8 Calvin Chua Singapore Science Park

This project explores a new typology for workspaces and amenities creating spaces for interaction and knowledge exchange.

Critiquing the existing spine and spur model of the Singapore Science Park, the project enhances the unique parklike quality of the site, by redesigning the main vehicular spine with concentrated activities which would extend the life time of the area through the day and even through the night.

With the rising population of startups in Singapore, the design also provides innovative informal workspaces which would connect them to the existing businesses in the science park.

Digital Fabrication 2015 Term 5 Stylianos Dritsas SUTD

The luminaire design began with the exploration of the visual effect of light refracting through multiple translucent rods. The parameters explored included the the dimensions, density and shape of the rods.

Having conducted a series of iterations, the effect of the final design is a feature luminaire that glows and lights up the surrounding walls as well as a concentrated spot directly below itself.

If placed at a strategic distance from the ceiling, it would have the effect of making the room appear bright due to the walls at eye level being lit. The direct light from the bottom would also make it ideal for lighting up a surface such as a table in a home setting or a plinth in an exhibition space.
