The Curve is Malaysia’s first pedestrianised shopping mall located close to the border of Kuala Lumpur city. Its unique appeal is in its distinct ambience, refined by its wide canopied walkways and its al fresco dining area. Besides, it is also special of its form which is curvy no matter outside or inside the building.

The Cur ve is chosen as the target location to solve the limitation of seat available in the mall. The seat is not only to solve the number of seat available, it also give user a place to have a break while shopping. Hence, the ergonomic is very important in the process of designing.

Furniture Design MillCurve

Bench for The Curve Shopping Mall

The concept of MillCur ve inspired from two subject matter which is the coral shell and millipede. Millipede normally can find in moist environment. It will coil up when it get distrub or threatened. Body of millipede may be flattened or cylindrical and composed of numerous metemeric segments. Concept of segmentation is the unique of this design.

The whorl on coral shell is spiral and circular. The curvy line on the whorl is similar to the design of the Curve. Coral shell is an exoskeleton animal live in the water with an outer layer of shell. The shell is hard so that the shell is hard so that the shell able to protect the animal.

In this project, the market is targeted to the landed smart homeowner as the product user. In Malaysia, most of the housing properties are landed such as a terrace. The rate of failed parcel delivery is even higher in this area as there is no management office to receive the parcel on behalf. The survey data also shows that the majority are from group landed houses. However, it will be an added value if the design can be used in the landed smart home as well as other high-rise buildings.
