Why Thaketa?

Thaketa township is situated in the East District of Yangon and it also connects the Central Business District area to the main Industrial Developing Area, Thilawa New Port. In account to increase the investment of foreign companies and business around the area, the Urban Facilities have to be developed properly. Among many kind of Urban Facilities, the space, where people can enjoy their cultural events and carry out their daily social activies or community supports, is the one needed the most for the public in the area of resident-crowded township like Thaketa.

User Analysis

According to the Data analysis of Demographic in Thaketa, the elders and the students, around 10 to 22 years olds, could be used for the whole time and the adults might be used after work or in weekends. Therefore, the healthcare facility and the education facility become two primary catagories to consider in this design of Sociocultural Center. Resource : www.mimu.com

2. University Library

Site : Thanlyin Technological Univeristy

Type : Design Studio Project

Participants : Individual Institution : Fifth Year, B.Arch, TTU Year : 2018

Library takes part in a viral role for every higher education sectors which is similar to a pair of wings for new peers to be able to reach their academic goals.

Firstly, the proposed design plan is spread to cover the whole area of the site that every kind of student can be easily accessible.

Then, wings alike barriers are created as the building skins which allow the certain amount of sunlight and also able to cool down the room temperature.

Finally, the curve entrance is designed for the user to feel welcoming effect. The roof above the core building can be used as a recreational place while they enjoy reading .

Thanlyin Technological University

The site is located in the campus of Thanlyin Technological University (TTU), beside Yangon-Kyauktan Road and is situated diagonally across at the corner of the main there-storey building. Since the University recently opened the new classes for the Master program in all nine major departments, the old one-storeyed university library does not have an sufficient space for the new thesis and research papers to keep for a long run and is needed an upgrade as a better place for all the students and staffs where they can get some inspiration, knowledge and fun at the same time.

Building Skin Loop Stacks

Using the building skin is an effective way to create a healthier building that consume fewer resources than other buildings of the same size and function. As for the design of Libraries, the certain amount of natural sunlight and ventilation are the most necessary elements to consider in a first place although the direct sunlight is not acceptable for books. In this case, metal is used as a material for building skin to be sustainable and to reduce the maintenance in long term used.

There are 2 giant book stacks inside the library near reading area. one of each has 4 levels and each level has sitting area at the back of the lower stack so that the reader can read books easily right after they found what they want and explore things under covers. They also have ramps to be flexible with all kind of people, especially disabled and elder people. 28 -0" 16 28 54 74 -0" 54 -9 3/4"

3. Children Museum

Site : Botahtaung Township, Yangon

Type : Design Studio Project

Participants : Individual Institution : Fifth Year, B.Arch, TTU Year : 2018

The site is located at the corner of Sandaku Road and Merchant Road in Botahtaung Township, Yangon and is near Botahtaung Pagoda And Botahtaung Jetty. Both Maha Bandula Road and Merchant Road are the most used roads to the downtown area so that people can easily get to the site by both private or public transportation.

Since it is near to the Yangon River, the humidity in the surrounding area keeps the site temperature cool down and it brings certain amount of wind. Another advantage of this site is that it can get the people attention by its location which is at the junction of two roads.
