Growing up, I tried dipping my toes in a few things: I played trom-
the urban planning. After all, a good design can only be appreciated
bone all throughout high school, run a theatre production, debates
if the design intent is translated into target mass aspirations thor-
and all the things that interest me in the exiguous. I was compelled
oughly - propaganda, democratic design, inclusive policy making.
to try new things, acquiring skills I thought would shape my intellectual framework. My fascination with architecture grew organically throughout my childhood. My late uncle was a builder; he built traditional timber houses from scratch. I would spend hours watching and I thought I could also build one of this myself when I grow

up. Through him, I developed my interest in design and construction – only to understand later that architecture is much more than brick and mortar.
Architecture and Urban Design personally is my life long inquiries on the pragmatic aspect in the society building. I discovered the tangible values of architecture to be important in facilitating human’s potential. The spaces and shapes transmit information and stimulates sensation. Through an intense strategy game (Command and Conquer: Red Alert) I was tasked to build an army base (a main base and satellite camps) in a specific time frame, dealing with different context conditions and financial burdens while engaging in skirmish. Through this, i consciously developed a passion in developing strategies and tactics. It is only natural that I develop my stratagems interest further in architecture and the democratic aspect of
My fascination in the built environment and cities are beyond physical, I consider myself to be a part of the city not only physically but also emotionally. Having both studied and worked in the heart of Kuala Lumpur, I am both attached and detached from my city. I for one believe a successful city is both built by the designers and the members of society collectively. I see my future career in architecture as a leader in a multi-disciplinary design firm that focuses on championing public-centric designs, allowing ideas from the general public, into the process. I envision myself working closely with the city hall to engaging these aspirations and ideas of the public and translate them into the physical form. Eventually I will run for Mayor!

CRITICAL MASS School of Architecture Penang, Malaysia
Year III | Semester II (2013-2014) :
CRITICAL MASS : ONE ACADEMY, SCHOOL OF ARCHITECTURE
Graduation Project
Project Type Academic ( Individual Work ) Project Brief Architectural Undergraduate School 300 Student (Capacity)
The Global advancement in technology has disrupted traditional industry, practices and companies. The Architectural consumption are evolving and the role of architects are also changing, thus it is important for the new bred of architects to be innovative and ready to meet future needs. A client-savvy architects need to see beyond “building, buildings� and instead offer services the embraces client/public broader aims - becoming problem solver as well as designer. The project intends to pursue the abstract, yet the visceral power of Critical Mass in Architecture Pedagogy. How can real time critiquing in architecture studios work, how frequent should it be, where and what is the threshold. How does personal and shared spaces be successful and how an open to public studio might function.

002. Collage of the current urban scenario in Penang
| 06 Urban Space New World Park is an amazing comfortable covered park occupied with Hawkers Food Court and Coffee Shops. Initial Observation shows the park is quite mundane, only after a few hours people start showing up for meals. No connection to other urban spaces, it lack traffic (inputs).
Critical Mass
Platform for the student to express/communicate their idea through provision of mass inputs through spatial strategies/possibilities allowing skill sharing, new ideas and methodology through a space that allow public-student interaction.
Potential - a food hub/leisure park for the future students. Give wide choices as for food and beverage.
Transportation Stop This is a possible bus stop/taxi lay-by and motorcycle parking, Integrated Bicycle rent and possible pedestrian bridge to adjacent Park. Student Plaza The Student Plaza will be the open space that provide the blank canvas so exhibition, bazaar and students activities can be held. The student plaza will include an amphitheatre, bicycle parking, gazebos and access to lobby. Potential Activities - Student Work Exhibition, Installations, Informal Classes, Bazaar, Indoor sports, Leisure Ingress and Egress The entrance is both for vehicular and pedestrian from the Southeast side of the site. (Drop off and pick-up area is inside the parking space) potential high frequency/common student entrance because of the opposite art supply shop
To create this medium for creation and interpretation, consideration of the connected and isolated spaces, open and closed spaces, critical and casual spaces needs to be identified to produce the generative environment.
Existing Pedestrian The Existing pedestrian walkway is already big and landscaped with adequate trees. There were few sighting of hawkers stall along the pedestrian. Potential - Extension of public realm in-out of the project

Dated as early as the 18th century, each style of shop house has its own unique architectural and decorative features, representing different periods of George Town’s history. The style of structure reveals the influence of Chinese, Malay, Indian and European styles - a mix of cultures that converged and adapted in response to the local environment. The Penang shop house is also a fine example of a green building, incorporating materials and designs that are suitable to the tropical climate. Every detail from internal walls, ceilings, roof tiles, to air wells, are designed to help with natural lighting, ventilation and cooling.

008. View of the Studio spatial interaction with the ‘Media Wall’
This project tries to address the critical need for a platform for the student to express/communicate their idea through provision of presentation space that allow creative strategies/possibilities by usage of building structure, facade and active mechanics in an urban setting. The spatial components is arranged in a way that allows the mix of creativity, flexibility, practicality and feasibility producing a building that is both a test case and a showcase for the campus of the future. New concepts for teaching, working, formal and informal meeting, studying, writing and socializing on campus have been implemented, while searching for a new balance between what we share and who we are individually or in specific groups- is considered. The arrangement of the supporting spaces e.g lecture theatre, lab and classroom are all adjacent to the main studios, blurring the boundary of theory classes and practical application of theory in design studio.

LAYAR : COLLECTIVE CULTURAL WORKSHOP As the city grows, both as a tourism destination and a business hub, curative measures are needed to ensure the cultural attraction and the reason of inflow of people into Kota Bharu is well potrayed and intact. The current attractions in the city is well dispersed- a good thing as it motivates people to walk/explore the city. However, to ensure the full Kelantan culture experience, a one stop information centre is key to provide the whole framework. This collective workshop, intends to provide the knee depth understanding of the overall experience, so as to provide a touch base experience that would direct the tourists, investors, and locals alike to their ultimate destination.

The socio-economic development rate for Kampong Bharu in comparison to other parts of the city had been affected by the complex process of overcoming the land-matters when it comes to development. Subsequently this has led to an effect of under-developed district within the central district of KL. The development focuses on social development of Kampong Bharu, where there is a need to upgrade and rehabilitate the aging infrastructure and civic amenities to support and promote a modern-day community. Rampant and accelerated development within the city centre, points to the threat of gentrification and monotony within the city. The strategy is also a measure of retainment and fortification of existing urban fabrics such as social, economical and cultural are main elements identified : and made into urban zoning and placemaking strategies.

Skyline Study of the possible addition of the new Kampong Bharu City Centre (KBCC) Centre to the Iconic Kuala Lumpur Skyline SALOMA LINK : LINKING KAMPUNG BHARU AND KL CITY CENTRE The development will include a new pedestrian link where it is not posiible before, as the two district is separated by a highway (AKLEH). The new links will create a pleasant environment to make the walking experience more enjoyable. In creating this pedestrian friendly environment in the city centre, it enables people to move freely without fear of incoming traffic, thus improving pedestrian’s safety and mobility. It will then encourage more retail and F&B areas, which may activate the public spaces and create a vibrant atmosphere. As a consequence result, it can potentialy improve the economical growth of both districts.
SKYLINE STUDY : THE NEW CBD IN KAMPUNG BHARU This development aims to establish a public place as a community centre for Kampong Bharu, with state of the art and latest strategies of Urban Design. KBCDMP has proposed KBCC as Pilot Project embark on Comprehensive Development via Lot Amalgamation Strategy (CRLA).

Mobility and Physics of Balance I was tasked to lead a team to design an installtion with the given theme DUALISM(a). We further developed our narrative in the dualism aspect of balance: ying and yang, good vs evil, solid vs void, etc. The concept of Balance is then replicated in the mechanism of mobility throgh provision of the gravity wheel concept (spokeless wheel) The idea was to create a kiosk or product dispenser that can be mobile while taking advantange of the form. The project took one month to execute from conception to building - with the help of a welding technician and a senior carpenter. The istallation also intends to challage the duality of the form in achieving mobility and maintaining gravitational balance.
