PROJECT 1: GREEN INFO-SHELTER: EXPLORING THE ENVIRONMENT POETICS
Project 1 explores the environmental poetics of a structure that respond to the basic natural context such as the sun, wind, heat, cold, energy issue, and the existing context. We are required to design a small space within an open area applying ideas of environmental sustainability in architectural design. The structure should provide both a shelter and suitable environment for users.
The green info-shelter to be based on the following requirements:
1) Volume 3m x 3m x 3m
2) To serve the main purpose of providing info on events and activities in CODA & SABD
3) To provide shelter for students waiting for pick up (5 max)
4) Minimal area for storage/ services
This is our given site.
Final Presentation Board and Model
It explores design solutions that harness environmental qualities and conditions for human and environment sustainability through a project with a specific community of users. We are required to explore design solutions that reduce environmental impact utilising clustered spatial typology and passive design approach. The design work should contribute to and merge harmoniously with nature and the site, and provide the best of experiences for the users.
Objectives
- To develop awareness of environmental sustainability in architectural design.
- To develop the student’s ability to meet the imperative and inter-related environmental and social needs, as well as make poetry with the buildings.
We are required to propose a communal facility accommodating several related functions such as meeting and learning in a suburban context. We are to develop their own concept for the communal space based on their research of the area and the community’s needs.
Site Location
The site is located in Pulau Banding, Gerik, Perak. Pulau Banding is a 243-hectare man-made island located within the majestic Temenggor Lake. The Island sits amidst the 130 million year-old Belum Rainforest, known for nature based activities such as fishing, bird watching, camping and visiting orang asli settlements.
EMKAY Group, the owner and caretaker of the Island, envisions the development of Banding Island as a vital introduction to Royal Belum State Park and aims to position it as a premier heritage destination on the world ecotourism map. It operates the Belum Rainforest Resort that offers opportunity to get up close and personal with the natural world.
This is the Site Analysis.

PROJECT 2: NATURE APPRECIATION CENTER
This project calls for a design of a simple public building with some complexity that includes the complexity of site topography and vegetation, socio-cultural events, and variety of strategies for sustainable design.It explores design solutions that harness environmental qualities and conditions for human and environment sustainability through a project with a specific community of users. We are required to explore design solutions that reduce environmental impact utilising clustered spatial typology and passive design approach.
