About Me Fresh Graduate from Taylor’s University. I firmly believe that architecture is a lens through which we decode the intricate patterns of nature and discover the enchanting rhythms that define our world.

My passion lies in expressing these revelations through the very structures created, harnessing them as a means to purify and express the laws of nature.

In the future, I hope to provide design solutions that transcend cultural, temporal, and functional boundaries, seeking to be a catalyst for breakthroughs in architecture that resonate with the essence of our world.

DIVERSION TO DISJUNCTION Site Location: Jalan PM 10, Melaka Project Topic: Proposal of an Impactful Urban Room Building Typology: 4-5 Storey Independent Public Building Tutor: Ar.Edward Chiew

Marketplace as a valuable open space that holds great inclusivity, serving a multitude of functions such as dining, trade, and social interaction within a single location. This multifaceted design approach places a strong emphasis on the synergy between space and events in a non-rectilinear form, thereby challenging the conventional notions of marketplace design.

The concept of disjunction, as applied in the context of Melaka, serves as a means to comprehend and recapture the historic significance of this place, once the thriving trading center of the Melaka Empire. Rather than completely isolating fragmented elements of identity, experiences, memories, and features of the site, disjunction is employed to juxtapose and superimpose these elements, effectively erasing hierarchical distinctions while introducing an interconnected framework. In architectural terms, this challenges the presence of hierarchy, creating equal movement that interconnects all spaces, enriching the overall experience.

To transform into a space that is conceived, perceived, and lived, the marketplace takes on the role of the final puzzle piece, meeting the needs of the local community. This also addresses a pre-existing issue, where the site primarily attracted tourists and lacked a local presence. Parallel to the theory of disjunction, the marketplace zones are delineated clearly, with spaces designed to adapt to various events and activities, thus becoming a central event hub for the area.

THE MATRIX Site Location: Medan Pasar, City Centre, Kuala Lumpur Project Topic: Proposal of a Community Center for Creative City Building Typology: 3-5 storey Urban Block Midrise Building Tutor: Ar.Indrani Vanniasingham

The Matrix represents a sustainable architectural approach that forms a self-sustaining community center with a well-thought-out circulation system. It serves as a space where people can seek leisure and recreation, engage in communication and social gatherings, connect with the cultural heritage of the country, and, most importantly, explore various opportunities.

The design incorporates pocket spaces strategically to activate the urban and public realms, providing communities with opportunities for engagement and interaction. This design platform fosters sustainable development, spanning from community learning to community interaction and service provision, ultimately culminating in community sustainability.

Adaptive design allows for faster-paced systems, such as service and space planning, to evolve without the need for major changes in the slower-paced systems, including the site layout and structural elements. These adaptable spaces cater to a variety of programs and are interconnected, with art and culture serving as the matrix that forms a robust feedback loop, benefiting the local economy and addressing numerous social issues.

BENEATH CANOPIES Site Location: Kepong Botanical Garden, Kuala Lumpur Project Topic: Proposal of a Wellness Centre PLUS Building Typology: 2-3 Storey Clustered Community Building Tutor: Ar.Hazazi Hamzah

This project calls for the design of a Wellness Centre PLUS, a community health and recreational facility. Working within the Kepong Botanical Gardens which borders the neighbourhood of Taman Ehsan, Kepong. Located immediately opposite the entrance gate to Keong Botanical Gardens is Klinik Kesihatan Taman Ehsan, a health-care facility. The proposal focus on providing oppurtunity for accessing of academic wellness which can provide experience that create a conductive learning environment, needed for effective growth in the direction of learning pursuits. Programs of excercising and gardening allow the two generations interact in the way of knowledge sharing to enhance others’ well-being as regarding oneself as a being of energy. Thus the concept of energy networking hub established, wellbeing as something which is to be promoted among the community and it linked to the experience of the natural environments of the Kepong Botanical Gardens.

MEMORY REPOSITORY Machap Baru,Kampung Baru,Melaka Site Location: Proposal of a Memory Repository Project Topic: Building Typology: 2-Storey Public Building Ar.Chong Sue May Tutor:

The past of Machap Baru is about the cruelty of resettlement and colonial era, the ancestors’ fearless effort and cohesiveness makes up our present. Diversity is the uniqueness of the place, in terms of religion, the food, and also the lifestyle. The intersection of past and present as the basis to emphasize the social identities, as well as the memory, bond and unite as a whole. Inspired by the view to the reservoir the image of harmony with balance, mountains as a relic of time that brings everyone to understand the history and culture of the place, the water reflect the historical and cultural value where represent the identity of the place. Collective memory making as public sharing information being activated through the design with senses of view, sound and smell. Journey that represent the three stages of Machap Baru which is Resettlement,Reformation and Remembrance telling the story through the experiences.

Melbourne is a city of around 5 million people in the state of Victoria in southeast Australia. It is currently the second largest city in the country but growing so rapidly that it is expected to outgrow Sydney by 2026.

During the pandemic,

By 2050, population of Melbourne will meet

Melbourne is in a region experiencing significant warming and drying due to climate change, and the COVID-19 pandemic follows a period of drought in parts of the state and the recent devastating bushfires. Farmers and consumers are experiencing the cumulative effects of multiple shocks to the food system.
