Sectional Design Development

Parkour spaces centralized and the level play created through varying slabs

Seating around the trees to create small shaded pockets

Many northern windows to bring in light to spaces like the library

Northern terraces spaces designed for comfortable outdoor seating

Central light-well to bring in light to underground, however it takes up to much space

Multi-purpose hall has an external entrance so it can be used if community center is closed and extends to the outdoors

Activities extend onto the rooftop of other functions - more community public functions (sports- badminton)

Level play created through varying height according to room functions

Parkour moved to the north of th e site and light-wells implemented on the roof to bring in light to double height spaces

Multi-purpose hall situated away from other function to provide some privacy in cases of private events

External seating created for delivery drivers to rest and interact with co-workers

Underground courtyard implemented to bring in natural light and ventilation.

Eastern terrace spaces created which are shaded by the existing trees Seating raised

Initial Massing

Courtyard opened up and large windows installed to bring in natural light

Green roofs implemented on west side for street views and it’s sound damping effect

Height Development

Level play explored within the interiors to enhance the users experience thought the spaces

Windows created under raised platforms to bring in natural light into underground spaces

FINAL MASSING

Ground Floor Plan

For this project , the design intent was to leave the existing landscape as untouched as possible. However, what was removed from the park was given back through various landscape designs. Some of the benches have been removed, so to compensate exterior seating along the building has been design. This creates a comfortable shaded outdoor seating that also acts as transition to the courts. On the west front exterior seating dedicated to the delivery drivers has been designed as many gather at the park and talk with co-workers or just rest. For achieving passive sustainability, as the wind came from the north west large opening were placed along this face to channel in the winds and allow for cross ventilation of the spaces. Specially designed shading devices, created from the overlap of net material have been added along windows on the west elevation to shade from the harsh sun and compensate for the use of large windows. The underground courtyard allows natural light and ventilation into the spaces. As it steps back a playful visual is created that can be viewed from the interior and the exteriors.
