‘Floating School’, a community library Project : Tiny Library 2021 Type : Competition Site : Kuala Sangga, Taiping Year : 2021 Team : Syed, JY, Adzreel

Sekolah Terapung

Sekolah Terapung - a Malay word that translates to ‘Floating School’ in English is a community library that caters to the people of Kuala Sangga. The first word ‘sekolah’ or school in English references the village’s emphasis on education. The Poay Chee Primary School is the jewel of the village, and while lacking in resources, is still operating and represents the community’s value of knowledge. The word ‘Terapung’ or floating in English on the other hand refers to the houses that were built on stilts. Due to its geographical location, stilts are used to enhance the structure’s stability, improves ventilation and withstand flooding.

Made of timber and metal zinc, the community library is meant to project a sense of familiarity for the users as these materials are commonly used at the fishing village. The structure’s layering represents the tight-knit community and establishes a strong, stable landmark for the community of Kuala Sangga.

Kuala Sangga

A quaint little fishing village near Taping, Perak in Malaysia; Kuala Sangga is home to a small community of fishermen, residing in a row of wooden houses built along a narrow concrete bridge. Without access to water and electricity lines, the villagers live off rainwater and gasoline powered generators, feeding electricity to the village’s crown jewel, Poay Chee Primary School. Tourists are a common place in Kuala Sangga, many curious souls seeking to understand the simple lives of this tightly knit community This sleepy fishing village offers more than meets the eye.

Community

Kuala Sangga is a home to a thriving, thightly-knit community that prioritizes education and development of their youth despite the lack of resources.

Design objective

The library aims to provide a fun, collaborative learning environment for the children of Kuala Sangga, who haven’t had the luxury and experiences of the urban youth.

The library aims to prepare them for the outside world, when they leave to further their education; visiting educators will be invited to assist with school work and encourage extracurricular activities. The structure also provides the community with spaces to celebrate events and festivals together.
