PROJECT 01: NARRATIVE PROGRAMMING - THE THEATRIC
Each group will analyse the movie's characters, plot, emotions, settings, and symbols, with a focus on the five senses: Touch, taste, sound, smell, and sight. Students will then employ these senses as inspiration for their stage/setting design. The ultimate design will be presented through "narrative programming", seamlessly integrating all elements to create a multisensory immersive encounter that encapsulates the movie's essence.
SMELL SENSORY This scene emphasizes the sensory experience of the battle scenes in the movie "Avatar: The Way of Water". It allows the audience to fully immerse themselves in both the war and the peaceful atmosphere of Pandora. The scene begins by introducing the audience to the smell of war, including the scent of smoke and gunpowder, which is visually depicted. The scene then transitions to the rich and diverse flora of Pandora, with large translucent bubbles emerging from the flora mechanism. These bubbles contain the scent of the flora and burst when they come into contact with the skin and atmosphere.
PROJECT 02: SITE MODEL
Building / Site Model (GROUP) - Students requires the creation of a single physical model of the entire REXKL building for the studio. The studio is divided into four categories to complete the overall building look, and each of these categories is further divided into four groups. The model created at a scale of 1:75 using sturdy and suitable materials, and building components should be openable to enable a better understanding of the interior spaces. Spatial Interior Model (INDIVIDUAL) - Each student will be required to produce a representative model of their best interior areas with suitable scale (subject to approval by tutors), minimum base size of an A4 paper. The model must showcase the materials, concept, and idea clearly, while demonstrating good workmanship.
REXKL, or RexKL City Center, is a lively mixed-use development and cultural hotspot in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. This urban gem blends modern design with historical charm, preserving the area's heritage while giving it a fresh, contemporary feel. The complex offers a wide array of amenities, such as restaurants, cafes, art galleries, co-working spaces, shops, and event venues.

FINAL PROJECT : ARTS AND CULTURE CENTRE -FOOD FOR THOUGHT CENTRE
Based on Narrative Programming with the focused theme (genre) and senses designed in Project 1, students are required to individually design an appealing arts and culture center, utilizing the provided space. The goal is to create a sense of place that celebrates cultural diversity and community identity. By reimagining the dynamic between culture and space to create an enlightening experience, the space should be adaptable, catering to a wide range of artistic and cultural activities. This will enhance its overall vitality and aesthetic appeal, thus contributing to the enrichment of the Arts and Culture Center. This design should seamlessly integrate digital technologies and innovative materials, all while prioritizing human interaction and well-being within the space. Keeping in mind the necessity to design a multifunctional space that not only celebrates cultural diversity and community identity but also fosters collaboration, creativity, and engagement among its users.
DESIGN STATEMENT The Food of Thought Centre is a zero-waste art and culture centre that highlights the importance of reducing food waste. It aims to inspire and challenge Malaysians to achieve their zero-waste goals and minimize waste generation. With the rise of urbanization, Chinatown in Kuala Lumpur has become a cultural food paradise for the community. However, this has also led to food waste pollution getting serious. Therefore, it is crucial to find ways to reduce food waste and educate future generations on the importance of this issue.

FOOD MARKET A bustling market with a cultural feast, also witness to the growing challenge bore of waste management. The food waste will direct become the composite for the vege under the bar table. A fruit enzyme bar was a spot for the consumers to have a healthy drinks. The drinks make by the fruits which are discarded climatic in retails. Besides, the coffee also an integral part of many people lives today. Hence, this make the increasing of coffee grounds. A mushroom barista which plant the mushroom by the coffee ground can be found in the food market.
FOOD WASTE MATERIALS EXHIBITION Visitors will encountered a food waste materials exhibition of integrity which show the materials metamorphosis. At here, the food waste metamorphosed into tangible & sustainable materials.
AROMATIC TEST LAB To the second floor, visitors were welcomed with a symphony of aromas, showcasing how fruit waste could be turn inti charming scents. As the visitor walk forward the test lab, they will see a zero-waste soap workshop. It was inviting all to craft their own natural soaps, fostering a sense of responsibility fot he personal waste.
SKY GARDEN Continuing the ascent, visitors reach the pinnacle of our sustainability journey—the Sky Garden on the third floor. Here, amidst the verdant embrace of lush foliage and thriving greenery, the hustle of urban life fades into the background. The Anaerobic Digestion System, gracefully playing its silent tune, stands as a testament to the transformative power of sustainability. This innovative system quietly transforms food waste into nourishing fertilizer for the flourishing plants, showcasing the cyclical harmony of waste regeneration. The Sky Garden provides a tranquil sanctuary where visitors can unwind, surrounded by the vibrant symphony of nature.
REGROW HUB (COLLAB SPACE) The regrow hub serves as a powerful testament to the collective action of the community in achieving zero-waste goals. Functioning as a path towards waste regeneration, it empowers individuals through education and hands-on participation. This hub fosters a shift in mindset, encouraging a departure from a disposable culture to one rooted in sustainability. Through shared experiences and a commitment to actively reduce waste, the regrow hub becomes a visible representation of the community's dedication to positive change. It acts as a catalyst for conversations on environmental responsibility, showcasing success stories and inspiring collaborative initiatives. In essence, the regrow hub is not only a living symbol of regeneration but also a dynamic space that cultivates a sense of shared responsibility and environmental stewardship within the community.
SEED SELECTION SPACE Continuing the immersive journey, visitors ascend to the mezzanine floor at our sustainability hub, where a unique experience awaits. At the DIY Plant Pot Station, equipped with upcycled plastic materials, visitors engage in a hands-on activity crafting their own eco-friendly planter pots. Having fashioned their pots, participants then select seeds of their choice and plant them with care. The journey of their plants continues at the Automatic Growing System, where a misting system ensures optimal conditions for growth. Visitors are presented with the choice to take their nurtured plants home or leave them at our hub, contributing to the communal greenery. This innovative and interactive experience not only promotes sustainability through upcycling but also fosters a sense of responsibility and connection with nature, enriching the overall visitor experience at our facility.

PROJECT 03 : VIDEO
Based from the 3D representation created in any of the software explored [Sketchup, Revit or 3Ds max], student is required to embed a walkthrough space virtually in a more streamlined and interactive manner. The walkthrough must be able to communicate the overall design of the programming proposed. Discuss with your tutor and your pair on the collaboration area to be captured. For individual, some spaces need more emphasis compared to others.
