Nature as Design Inspiration
Using nature as a mentor and inspiration, I chose the lionfish as the guru for my architecture design.
Experimenting with Models
Building models allow me to visualise the spatial opportunities and construction techniques.

OF MAGIC
Way of Life and Architecture
I obeserved a villager from Little India and observe his way of life. I captured the magic of his dwelling, the narrow valley of bangles, which facilitates his way of life.
Climate Analysis
Architecture and Nature
As a designer, I believe in responding to the surrounding environment, hence I analyse the sunpath to make better design response.
I built a model with a human scale person to visualise the spatial experience.
The ZIGZAG Bridge
Growing up, I have always loved the bridges around my HDB neighbourhood and wanted to design innovative bridges inspired by HDB Bridges and used rhinoceros 3D and photoshop to bring it to life .
I explored and designed a tensile structure and a curved building Tensile Structure

I studied a real life award winning building, Kampung Admiralty’s Green and Sustainable features and learnt about the details of the green roof and green wall to explore the possiblities of integrating such features in my design.
Kampung Admiralty
Green Roof
I did a model in revit to showcase the layers of the green wall.
Kampung Admiralty
Green Wall
Drawing this, I understand the speciÿcs of the Green Roof and its irrigation system. Green roofs contain layers of soils, waterprooÿng membrane, and drainage or water storage systems.
The breakdown of the green wall helps me better understand crucial parts of the green wall such as waterprooÿng membrane and drainages.

Brainstorming the Translation to Bamboo and Construction Methods
Exploring Bamboo’s Potential
Bamboo is a sustainable material with a many great properties such as high shear stress and a great compressive strength that makes it an attractive material for me .
