: Sept 2015 - Jan 2016

Site

: WHS George Town, Penang, Malaysia

Collaborators : Iryadi Redzuan, Shahirah Aishah, Nur Shahidah Despite its extremely rich historical value (George Town’s founder Francis Light, among other notables, is buried there), the cemetery is seldom mentioned in tourist brochures and is consequently less often visited than other sites in Penang. The relative lack of attention, as well as the area’s somewhat obscure location, has contributed to its dilapidated appearance. The first known clean-up of the cemetery was in 1894 by British authorities, who restored Light’s grave on the centennial of his death. The cemetery had been closed to new burials two years earlier. No further restoration works took place at the cemetery until 1993, when the Penang Heritage Trust, aided by funds from French plantation company SOCFIN, repaired and cleaned the boundary walls and tombstones. Faded inscriptions were also re-inked, and a large signboard in Malay and English with a site plan of important tombs was put up. The cemetery was reopened in time for Francis Light’s bicentennial. Another restoration exercise was organised in 2007.

In 2012, conservation works were undertaken to protect and preserve the site, although there had been some concern about how the restoration was done. Experts however expressed concern that the existing damage to the tombs may have been further aggravated by landscaping workers going about their rounds without supervision. After being listed in the Unesco World Heritage Site, Georgetown, particularly in the leisure and tourism zone have the potential to extend its reputation as world tourist destination.

MASTERPLAN FRAMEWORK

The iconic landmark of historical cemetery located on the sultan Ahmad Shah Road, Georgetown and facing the Eastern & Oriental Hotel along the Farquhar Street. Although pedestrians are able to walkby, the waterfront at the area is being monopoly by Hotel Eastern & Oriental and new upcoming residential which still under construction. the cemetary is within the buffer zone of Georgetown UNESCO heritage site. Most of the building is classified under UNESCO heritage “Category II” buildings. there are a few replacement and infill building such as government offices, Oriental Hotel and Citidel Hotel. a large Pocket of green area with church compound next to the cemetery. The site a is historical cemetery date from 1800’s. also known as Northam Road Cemetery, is a disused Christian cemetery in George Town, Penang, Malaysia. After more than a century of neglect, it is now classified as a heritage site and is maintained by the Penang Heritage Trust. he cemetery lies in a grove of frangipani trees along Northam Road (now Jalan Sultan Ahmad Shah). Established in 1789, the cemetery is of significant historic interest: it is older than many better-known burial grounds such as in Paris, Warsaw, Vienna and Macau.

Site

: Bologna, Italy

Collaborators : Izzah Hazirah, Azyan Nadiah Bologna is the lively, historic capital of the emilia-romagna region, in northern italy. Bologna has a humid subtropical climate with little influence from the sea. They have quite cold winters and very hot summers with hot and muggy due to the high humidity in the area. The city experienced severe heat waves in the last decade and the urban heat island affects the most part of urbanized environment. In addition heavy rains often affect the geographical area, and in the past the flooding risk has been strongly considered in the water management strategies due to the proximity of two important rivers (savena and reno) of the city. Some of the issues including keeping the identity of the place, to strengthen the sense of community , to integrate the different cultures of immigrated inhabitants and to promoting mixed use development and local commerce. The loss of open spaces for communication, interaction and integration has led to a decline in community in many urbanareas.

Furthermore, there is an existing daily market takes place in the heart of the neighborhood but there is no relation between it and the surrounding buildings. A small and multi-functional market place during the day and night that can satisfy a range of community needs as well as simply being a place of meeting and interaction year round should be built in order to cater all of the issues arisen.

The seamless mercato is a sustainable market that consists of wet and dry market and also a food court. This mercato uses ramp as a main circulation. The function of the ramp is to create seamless circulation, a non-static movement.

Also function to make sure that all the shops are not been left out or being equal and act as a new experience of shopping. The seamless mercato is a cost efficiency building as it reduces electrical consumption, which is by reducing lift usage. The aluminum composite structures roof would shade the markets from intense sunshine and shelter them from the rain. Rainwater would drain off the surface to the side of the roof and be channeled into underground storage tanks so it could be reused for flushing the toilets, clean the market-floor and applying evaporate cooling by using the heat of the sun and the wind to freshen the air under the roof. The exposed of the corridor will give dynamic to the façade treatment, which give the features to the façade. The vertical public farming of herbs and spices will be the features of the façade treatment, since fresh herbs are used almost exclusively in italian cooking. In italian cuisine, herbs and spices are just as vital as, say, a spaghetti sauce bib. The public farm at the rooftop will also function as an urban farm while providing an outdoor social space for the summer. It brings people together around the experience of growing foods as a temporary public space. More people around the world are taking a look at urban farming, which offers to make food as “local” as possible. By growing what the locals need near where they live, will decrease the “food miles” associated with long-distance transportation. On the rooftop, there is a community space for the community to gather around which consists of a multipurpose hall, education center and a community garden.

The structural system of high-rise buildings is designed to cope with the vertical gravity loads and lateral loads caused by wind or seismic activity. The foundations of high-rise buildings must sometimes support very heavy gravity loads, and they usually consist of concrete piers or piles that are sunk into the ground. he most important factor in the design of high-rise buildings, however, is the building’s need to withstand the lateral forces imposed by winds and potential Earthquakes. Most high-rises have frames made of steel or steel and concrete. Their frames are constructed of columns (vertical-support members) and beams (horizontal-support members). Cross-bracing or shear walls may be used to provide a structural frame with greater lateral rigidity in order to withstand wind stresses. As height increases, the rigidity and stability requirements become more important, and they are often the dominate factors in designing. the eccentricity of gravity load increases to such a magnitude that it brings about to collapse.

The factors that affect the stability of a high-rise structure as a whole are the lateral loads which include: Seismic forces (Earthquake Loads) at the base of structure. Wind loads at the top (Higher stories) of the buildings. Wind is essentially the large scale horizontal movement of free air. It plays an important role in the designing of tall structures because it exerts loads on building. It is a phenomenon of great complexity because of the many flow situations arising from the interaction of wind with structures. Wind is caused by air moving from high pressure to low pressure. Its direction is influenced by the earth’s rotation. Near the earth’s surface, the motion is opposed and the wind speed is reduced by surface friction. At the surface the wind speed reduces to zero and then begins to increase with height, and at some height known as the gradient height, the motion may be considered to be free from earth’s frictional influence and will attain its “gradient velocity.” Wind produces two different types of effects on tall buildings: static and dynamic.

It has the potential to be developed as another unique attraction through proper coral conservation initiatives. Scuba diving is a marine activity that closely relate to underwater landscape, specifically coral reef. It is currrently gaining popularity especially among youth of this generation who are adventurous and explorative. The proposed building aims to provide first-hand underwater exploration experience a well as becoming the mechanism to sustain the natural environment of the coral reef. The main two functions of the building are based on scuba diving/underwater exploration activity and coral conservation/breeding which acts as a complementary schemes or ecosystem to ensure the sustaibility of the marine landscape as well as educating and exposing youth on the awareness of conserving the coral through practical and interactive way, which is diving. The building also act as platform for underwater activities enthusiasts with provision of facilities and training resources. This is to encourage more youth to engage in diving which is diving.

THE MORPHOLOGY - INSPIRATION FROM CORAL

Started with combination of domes with geodesic domes as main structure. Programs are injected into the dome. Spaces allocated for the programs exceeds the original boundary of geodesic domes. Portion of domes above water level is cutted. All the domes are covered with enclosed envelope. The enclosed envelope are punctured with holes which acts as openings allowing view as well as providing shade from the sun. This gives the image of coral inspired design. Additional elements like overhang and platforms are added to further enhance the coral inspired shape as well as providing shades and circulation.

DESIGN PROCESS The process of designing the scheme is derived from the theory of apprenticeship and analysis of technical and vocational education institutions will be allowed to develop their own curriculum based on occupational standards, which outlines the skills requirements of an occupation. Institutions will be encouraged to embedded industry input in the currriculum to ensure they graduates match skills requirements of industry. In addition, entreperneurship will also be embedded in the curriculum to promote self-employment and enhance graduate resilience upon entering labour market.

31 The apprentice perspective is an educational theory is by developing similar performance to other practitioners, an apprentice will come to understand the tacit (informally taught) duties of the position. The development of schema, represent trainer understanding of experiences real project - frame a person’s conceptualization of clustered program. The concept is to stimulate positive mental structure of preconceived idea and future understanding. The process of learning through physical intergration into the practice associated with the subject. The apprenticeship perspective includes a series of phases that help articulate the roles of the learner and teacher during the process of observing and enacting concepts.

6 Urban Design Research Lab| Waste bank : A case study of Surabaya Year

: Jan - March 2017

Site

: Surabaya

Collaborators : Waste bank is a business owned by people of community who consider waste as a valuable economic commodity and savings. The waste bank has instruments that involving community in waste management. Waste had been considered useless and must be removed, but with the waste bank system it is intentionally collected and saved for its economic values. This paper will highlight the stimulating force which lead to the effectiveness of waste bank program in Surabaya from the perspective of sociology theory; collective consciousness. The term was introduced by French sociologist Emile Durkheim in 1893. Emile Durkheim as classical sociological figure also reveals that social solidarity is a strong based in social relations, because solidarity define the social order and social cohesive. The existing collective consciousness among Surabaya urban kampong community can be derived from traditional shared solidarity customs, and beliefs such as gotong royong, gugur gunung, kenduran and selamaten held in common among members. Waste bank, which is having the same social concept to the traditional custom, become the new cohesive generator among waste bank customers, operators and community shareholders. The interests and shared values unite them by common sense. As Emile Durkheim revealed the consciousness which build collectively in the community, shared values are the unified force in making a successful community environmental governance.

The proposed institute interacts with the site context, both climaticlly and physially. The appearance suits its purpose as an educational/historical institution building. The image is derived from the inner city of George Town, which conceived group of small, fine grain spaces to create city like complex. Different scale of simple blocks connected to each other create a complex composition.

Space between blocks to be designed for flexiblity and space for outdoor activities. The composition includes 4 main programme : administration, academy/institution, facilities an services.

Simple blocks to be implemented with conventional construction technique such as post & beam construction. Linkages and landscape feature are designed to present the sustainable technology implemented in constructing the building. A barrel vault, continous arched shape inspired the roof design which resemble the roof of a tunnel, highlight the idea of “time tunnel”, a feeling of bringing back memento and revisiting the past of trader’s life. Furthermore, the formed barrel vault create a long span stucture, column free internal spaces. The advantage can be utilise to create multiple volume space and flexible stacked floors.

SPECIAL STUDIES | RAINWATER STORAGE & GREEN TERRACE Between the blocks, terrace garden is designed to create a void for “breathing� to the user (hostel tenants). The spaces will become an outdoor realm in between stratified model of accomodation zone. The voids are designed for their space flexibility to accomodate tenants activities. Moreover, the strategy is to extend green pockets and landscape from ground level to the terraces at the first floor. To consider the designed of terrace garden, special provision of the requirement to design green turf with planter box and the irrigation system. Both special studies focusing on self-sustainablity and easy maintanence landscape design.

Perspective views inside the institute. : 1. The main lobby, looking towards the reception counter and glass facade above 2. The corridor next to exhibition area, triple volume spaces with natural ventilation (louvers). Undulating roof structure is exposed creating an open large spaces.

3. Pathway between two blocks linking the south entrance with the ground floor circulation inside the building.

Overall the building is defined its feature as academic building that focus on users’ preference in optimizing apprenticeship learning process. Relationship between blocks in seamless with creative itervention in between to promote condusive living, out going perception and “sense of place� to the building users. This will achieve the goal on designing a building that connect people to common purpose and stimulate space based on apprenticeship theory. Moreover, the building provided technical education facility with 24-hours access to the trainees (live & work). Security and safety of the tenants is ensured by the zoning of circulation between public, semi public and private area. In conclusion, architecture able to promote involvement of local expert communities with the support of academician to revive culture community based activity through academic building design that recognize and promote community heritage trader industry. Hence, successfully become a scheme for an institute for learning history, cultural and community-based industry that provide network or resources to academicians in engaging involvement with local communties.
