PROJECT 4: STANDALONE COMMUNITY

Project 4 is the biggest project in our designing studio that needs all the student in designing studio work together to make a master model that have size about 1/8 of the studio. This project is divided into 4 tasks.

The first task is making a master model and makes a site analysis. The site given is the area in Aman Lake and Harapan Lake. We also required to makes a LCP and need to submit together with the master model and present it.

After that, we proceed to new task which all of the groups in the studio need make a layout plan and present it. The best layout will choose for the studio layout and make it happen in the master model. Thus, we are required to change the master model layout.

Finish with it; we are proceeding with individual unit that can suit in the master layout. However, my group is given different task which need us to make an existing building such as wakaf. I have assigned to design a wakaf also known gazebo.

The design using contemporary concept which is combining the traditional Kedah style with solar powered. The solar power is used to moving the fan in the wakaf. This wakaf using bumbung Limas of Kedah to make it suit to the community in the site.

Then I have to choose the suitable site in the layout plan. This project is really about working together as a whole and it is link with the planning of site development.
