De Aléatoire De Aleatoire is inspired by its chosen plant, the Hoya. In this building, the unpredictability and randomness of this viney plant is insinuated and expressed through this building. This kiosk is meant to serve as a space for users to feel connected and merge with the structure, like how the hoya plant reaches out to attach itself and thrive. Additionlly this kiosk also serves as a space for the users to learn and appreciate gardening and the plant itself, and hopefully inspire them to bring one home themself. In this kiosk, the process and preparing, nurturing and displaying of the plants is fully showcased for the users to experience. The structure contains 7 sections, each section serving its own unique purpose, without one or the other, the process in incomplete, just like a hoya plant leaf, cut off one piece of leaf and it dies. The middle piece acts as the root of the structure, bringing meaning and life to the surrounding sections. Lastly, this kiosk allows you to configure each of the sections in any way you, providing a sense of unpredictabilty in the kiosk.

1:100 Elevations

Accesability The point of this structure is to allow users to immerse and connect themself with the structure, one way of doing this was to provide many access points to the kiosk. This gives a sense of transparency and openess to the kiosk.

Eco - Friendliness

The upside down umbrella acts as a shading device and a water harvesting system, which colllects rainwater and store it in the tank underneath it. This water would then be used to water the plants grown within the kiosk.

Shape The curvy outer part of the structure is constructed to provide a sense of comfort in viewing the space, as compared to a sharped edge rectangle, a curved outer shape provides a sense of comfort

Transformability Each section of the kiosk contains flippable boards, which acts as a shading device, it also acts as a way to increase the volume and size of the kiosk, which makes it seem more spacious.

Zoning Each section of the kiosk, serves its own individual purpose, such as selling the pots for the plant, selling the soil and fertilizer for the plant, a place to prepare and pack the plant, a space to grow the plant and a space to buy tools.

Massing Strategies

The middle part of the kiosk draws the attention of the users. It is a crucial part of the kiosk, as it provides context to the surrouding sections.

The seamingly transparent and open look of the kiosk blends in well with its surroudings, making its mark but doesn’t affect the natural ambience of the surounding area.

The use of wood and light-weight steel creates a unfamiliar yet exci-ting contrast. The user is able to experience different context of space each corner of the kiosk they explore.

the water tank which stores the collected rainwater, used to help irigate the water located in the middle collumns, recirculating the water back to the plants.

Spaces In Between The organisation of spaces has drastically changed over the past ten decades, from a primitive settlement to a metropolis, the reason for this is to accommodate the exponential growth of a population. From a loose, unorganised and unplanned distribution of spcaes known as a primitive village to a more structured and functional city settlement organisation. Due to this, people has lost touch of what its like to explore and immerse themselves into a loose setting. The main design idea is to introduce a loose organisation of space in the rigid usj2 town.to design a place where users are not confined by the rigid road structuresm whereas they are led by their curiousity to explore and seek the spaces in between spaces. To design a personal village where the people can step away from the usual structured days of their life to a more loose, relaxed kebun komuniti.

KLANG PROJECT

“I call architecture frozen music “– Johann Wolfgang. I’ll be introducing Klang City, A city with rich ethnicities, where it was originally used as a tin mining zone by the westerners, through the passage of time, the settlement turned into a city which is now mostly occupied by commercial buildings, due to rapid urbanisation, the once densely populated city has seen rapid movement out of the urban area and the need for efficiency has left the city misshapen, where unoccupied spaces are unmaintained, urban spaces has been lost to carparks which ultimately turns into lost spaces and the mundane rhythm that exist within the city which is caused by the mass production of façades.

Sem 5 : Project 1 ( 2021 )

Rythmm Revival There are many inspirations to be made from this, such as the 5-foot way and the veranda, which is also known as interstitial spaces. These interstitial spaces allow for dynamic rhythm to be in play, we can observe how buildings with five-foot way allows for public and private realms to coexist, where businesses are seen to be extended and expanded towards the private walking spaces blurring the boundaries between these spaces. Further investigations were made to understand Klang clearer.

Firstly, the Rhythm of People is investigated. This can be investigated through the nodes that exist within the city. The people of Klang can be seen to be connected through food such as Restoran De Salma and Chong Kok Kopitiam, these connects people together and acts as a lingering spot for locals to interact and share their cultures and experience with each other.

Next, the rhythm of the buildings is investigated, the landmarks that exist within the city consist of way-finding and cultural landmarks, through these way finding landmarks we can observe the affects of urbanisation where a once striving accommodation shophouse has turned its focus towards developing coffee and food to locals, in order to adapt to the rapid urbanisation of the site. The cultural landmarks have been preserved however the once public open space which sees its boundaries being met with urban spaces are fenced off creating an island building in the city.

Lastly, the rhythm of the façade is investigated the modules of the site are kept the same with the change in building height, however, these changes were done abruptly, where it fails to achieve a sense of scale and connect the users in an intimate level causing disengagement with the users.

THE SOUND OF PEOPLE

GF

A largely populated space, where the sound of chatting can be heard clearly, creating passive contacts. The sense of belonging and familiarity is felt through the people and the use of familiar materials.

BRIDGING THE GAP

1F

A space where the segregation can be bridge through the understand of culture through their individual unique patterns. Not only providing a new skill set for the users, but also help understand the people that resides in Klang.

SELF IMPROVEMENT

2F

A floor where users seek to self improve, getting intouch with nature by using the natural co-working space or privately study in the library, away from the pitter-patter thats going on at the other floors.

COMMUNITY EXCHANGE

3F

A place in which events can take place, seasonal and yearly events, which alters how the space is used. Also a place for the members of Klang community to discuss town issues and improve the overall well being of the site.

SERVICE

4F

A private space for the workers and managers of the building. Providing a secluded and private space for workers to converse and discuss buisness matters. Helps improve the wellbeing of the workers and managers.

Rhythm of Collumns The collumns are placed in a way where it directs and leads the users and community of klang within the building. The buildings shows and directs pathways towards interstitial spaces within the building. The building provides a sense of familiarity and ownership to the users, reintroudcing the prominent structural element of the five foot walkway, it also provides a sense of asurence and comfort, showing the sturdy collumns and expressing it.

Rhythm of Movement

the movement from floor to floor is emphasized within the building, where users can perceive from floor to floor, allowing permeable views from every floor. As well as providing prominent elements inside and outside the building, such as a mural wall within the building and a exhibition wall outside the building. A holisitc enviroment aimed to provide users to explore and generate movement within the building.
