AMITY Valley of Hope, Sungai Buloh

Valley of Hope once a leprosarium which gathers leprosy patient at here. They forced to leave their family to stay here for treatment. However, society seeing them with prejudice caused them hard to return back their normal life even though they have fully recovered. Similar things also occur in nowadays which cause by the virus pandemic. We need the collaboration of people in order to fight against the virus pandemic.

The spirit of leprosy patients to sustains their normal life through creating a harmonious society in Valley of Hope brings the idea of “Amity”. The “Amity” interpretive centre hopes to bring out the spirits from them to show that unity of people is the key to facing the virus pandemic.

Passive Design Strategies

Pitch roof coloured black create buffer zone to let hot air rises in order to ventilate the internal space to have stack ventilation

Cross ventilation which hot air will been ventilated through the window

Buffer zone Brise soliel to filter direct sunlight penetrates into the building

Moveable faรงade control the sunlight and air flow into the building Cool air enter the building through large opening in order to create cross ventilation

Structural Concept

Raft foundation to divide the building force equally to the ground

Structural Concept

Timber quadra column as main support for the main building

Structural Concept

Reinforced concrete column to support the isolated building

Structural Concept

Adding beam and column for first floor to support the roof
