Role of architect and urban designer?

To create space, I believe that representation of space must include space of representation which suggests a subjectivity of people who lived experience. In this case, space is not focus on the material perception but looks forward to the opportunities of the sustainable future relationship.

Work Experience 2018-2019

Modular-Villa, Nusa Penida Nusa Penida, a relative new area located at the Badung strait, is growing significantly, showing distinctive development in comparison with Denpasar. Dominated with luxurious villas, resorts and hotels, Nusa Penida demands more competitive design in order to present a distinctive ambience for its tourism. However, contemporary development tends to banish the genuine culture of Bali, focusing on modern development adorned by superficial ornament and decoration. This new design is tested to rethink a new development of accommodation that respect its original culture of Bali, questioning the negative side of contemporary tourism. Mass development of individual villa is avoided by developing landscape architecture. Relationship between structure and space is established by developing attached villas and yards in order to integrate villa’s elements with its landscape. The Landscape is elaborated as part of architectural form so that a new type of villa emerges from its nature.

My main contribution lies in the design concept research, rendering, and material cost analysis for the modular design.

Work Experience 2018-2019

Rooftop Auditorium

Buddhist School, PIK, Jakarta The project was aimed to renovate the third floor and rooftop which are office and auditorium. The interior design develop based on the tenets of Buddhism. The principle of doing least harm and blending with environment are taken as design concept. The design is also aimed to create an appropriate and comfortable work-environment and meditation space both for the staff and students.

The office avoids placing transparent blind partitions inside the space but rather prefer to create a different layer for working space. Since the back of the building does not have any window, set back was designed to allow natural light from a skylight. For the auditorium, room is placed around a series of landscape garden and pathways.

My main contribution lies in the design concept and rendering.

Renovation Process

Panin Office, Jakarta The brief for the office was to create co-working space that would give them each a collaborative area with flexibility to communicate with each other. The aim itself was to retain an industrial quality with honest materials, so the floor area was simply used epoxy. Whereas, separated area utilise the existing wall to partition meeting area and finance division.

My main contribution lies in the interior concept, rendering and some technical drawings.

Islington Map

Reactivating Holloway The study area stretches from Upper Holloway across Tufnell Park to Lower Holloway, incorporating Caledonian Road and Holloway Road. The former site of Holloway Prison, the largest women’s prison in Europe when it was open sits at the centre of the area. The former Holloway Prison site is the largest site available for redevelopment in Islington ‘for a generation’ and is therefore spatially and symbolically important to the council and local residents. The following priorities emerged after considerable community engagement around development of the site (The Centre for Crime and Justice Studies, 2018): 50-70% Affordable housing, community facilities, green space and a women building. Islington Council have set the standard they expect to see from the development, stating ‘the future development of the site can set a benchmark for the potential of public sector land in the capital, delivering much needed affordable housing as part of a high quality sustainable new neighbourhood’ (2018).

The project vision is of an inclusive, permeable and sustainable development that will serve the needs of old and new residents who live there or nearby, for generations to come. We want to create a destination for different members of Islington’s diverse population. People will be able to come together around high-quality, accessible green space and the provision of valuable social services, especially a centre for women, honouring the history of the site and providing a hub for women’s services in Islington and beyond. The crea- tion of affordable housing will ensure that the development is inclusive. The use of innovative technology to create circular economies and the emphasis on green natural spaces and materials will ensure an environment that is healthy and sustainable.

Analysis

Based on our SWOT analysis , the structure and nature of the prison has led to physical constraints in accessibility, permeability and connectivity to its surroundings.

As a result, the series of interventions set forth in this report aim to improve these aspects while recognizing the importance of addressing London’s growing housing needs. We recognize these constraints not as limitations but as opportunities for development to improve inclusivity, accessibility, sustainability which addresses the demands of current and future residents of this locality within Islington.

Inclusivity of the chosen design

The brief for this project was to follow the London Plan’s ‘design-led’ approach to maximising density in the context of the former Holloway Prison Site. We have tried to undertake such an approach. However, during the process, what we have realised is that, in this case, the demographic data had the biggest influence on our design decisions.

The Centre for Crime and Justice Studies acknowledge the importance of local people and their opinions as too did Islington Council with a long and considered consultation process. The community is best placed to identify the criteria by which any proposal should be judged.

With the current shortage of affordable housing in London, it should be expected that maximising the provision of affordable housing is an important part of any community-led brief. In this case, the provision of community facilities, sustainable design solutions, green space provision and a respect for the history of the site. It is in this mix that the ‘design-led’ approach provides room for creativity and challenges urban designers to sensitively consider typology and layout.

District Mapping

INCREMENTAL VERTICAL KAMPONG Incremental Vertical Kampong considers the efficiency of occupancy, which not only refers to physical requirements but also as a radical transformation in family structure, social inequality, temporality. Demanding a bottom-up solution, identification of marginal settlements are essential in the city system. In this case, the Incremental concept retrospecting the urban kampong transformation into the vertical building to preserve the character of the kampong and simultaneously criticizing the minimization of space within the city. Hence, Incremental is a system where communities continue to come, evolve, and change within program stages and measured by demography. *Kampong = slum/ informal settlements

Massing Process

Kampung Muka is developed into two types: ‘public housing’ with capsule system and ‘open system housing’ which is built in each horizontal layer. These two typology systems are combining to preserve the horizontality of the kampong by using public housing typology.

The incremental concept is divided into two main ideas. First, the ‘housing phase’, three housing phase will be added based on the expansion of the settlements every three years. Second, incremental of ‘housing unit’, for the first phase, housing unit will be built half of the maximum area, while the unbuilt area becomes a transition and garden.

As their the community expand their nuclear family, they can use the other half-space with the professional role assistance.

Covid-19 Contribution: Building Blocks April-July2020

Faced with obstacles in research due to the COVID-19, many students have to flexibly adapt their methodology for major research projects and theses. Therefore, the availability of new forms of data could provide considerable insight and opportunities for urban designers to address societal challenges.

The project created a learning resource, accessible by self-enrolment to students and staff in the UCL with available information on datasets and software on big data in urban design.

How this resource useful?

Learning resource page
