Landscape Design Intent of Connectere.

The green courtyard uses vertical layering for the landscape and each plant is chosen specifically such that all the plants between the courtyard require semi-sun as the building is oriented such that it is not completely exposed to the sunlight at any time of the day. The landscape design creates a focal point between the units and the connecting corridor act as a focal point for connectivity.

Architecture Portofolio

My landscape design intent is to create a green courtyard between the units to provide a tranquil and green hub for connectivity, it creates a ‘private’ setting yet openness for users through the scale and positioning of the units & adds more natural colours/shapes to the modular building. The positioning & orientation of the units also result in a constant ventilation throughout the HDB and the units’ shorter end are facing north-south to reduce glaring & constant sunlight. Furthermore, the spaces between each unit on the 1st floor is used as a fitness corner and each fitness corner has a different utility & the green courtyard acts as a ‘rest stop’ and connection between spaces & people.

13

To create an experience where users can rejuvenate through the play of light and shadow with nature.

Creating a revitalising experience for users of all age groups.

About Textile Hideout @ Kampong Glam

18

O

It is a project based in Kampong Glam, Singapore Architecture Portofolio

This is a project that is meant for public spaces. The focus of this project is the design adaptability of of how my design can correspond to different sites. The isometric diagram shows a single module which can be varied throughout different sites. It creates a therapeutic corner in a public space

Design Adaptability of The Textile Hideout

Architecture Portofolio

The structure is made out of timber & fabric to create a lightweight appearance that is surrounded in a concrete jungle.

Each cube does not have a fixed function which allows users to freely use the space to their own imagination. Hence, each cube can either be used for reading, relaxing & exercising. This concept reinforces the idea of their own hideout by the flexibility of space; a free spirited space. The cubes also encourage social distancing while relaxing. The openings of the fabric can be adjusted by the users to create opportunities for mingling or a private space for users. The orientation of the modules connected & scale are such that it corresponds to the site, e.g more decking can be added. The flexibility of the fabric and volume allows users to a more private or open space for different sites.

The Textile Hideout @ SingPost Centre

Architecture Portofolio

We had to choose another site for this project to show the design adaptability of it & I had chosen SingPost Centre which had a contrast to the Kampong Glam site as SingPost centre is heavy in human traffic. The large amount of human traffic will cause an increase in noise & the experience of the user.

Hence, the flexibility of the fabric allows users to have a more enclosed space in a site that could cause discomfort & disrupt their moment.

Reliving Arts Centre

21

To create an art centre for the less privileged families & artist, to allow business opportunities, interactions & inspirations & creating a safe space for people. While retaining & increasing awareness of Malay Heritage through the use of Art.

Design Strategies of Reliving Arts Centre There are 3 passive design strategies: Vertical Climbers Perforated Aluminium Facades Green Roof

The facade has expressions of Wayang Kulit which provides more sunshading in spaces that has more sun glare. Furthermore, Wayang Kulit performance can be projected onto the facade to create a unique experience.

The green roof provides an overall cooling in the building especially in a tropical place like Singapore.

Architecture Portofolio

The Vertical climbers mixed with art pieces creates a unique transitional art gallery. Allowing users to be surrounded by Malay art, which creates awareness & inspirations.
