tanjung anom multifunctional space

This project is a transitional space that connects the people of Surabaya city and Tunjungan village within Surabaya. It serves as a recreational area for city residents and a community space for village residents. The goal is to boost the economy by providing UKM Centers where villagers can sell their creations. There is also a workshop function to enhance ‘villagers’ skills and improve their economic welfare Additionally, the space includes a park for leisure and community gatherings for residents from both areas

The Tunjungan area in Surabaya is seen as a busy commercial zone by city residents. It is filled with tall buildings that create a sense of exclusivity. However, for ‘villagers’ in the area itselft, the Tunjungan area feels like a high wall. The presence of these tall buildings intimidates them because it is so different with their home in the term of scale, some of the ‘villagers’ even feels sometimes like they’ve been caged The proposed solution aims to bring inclusivity by bridging the gap between the villagers of Tunjungan and other residents of Surabaya

Subject, Year

Professional Project, 2023 (Finished)

The initial task of this renovation is to reconfigure the layout of the first floor. The client's objective is to create a more spacious central living area. The old floor plan feels cramped due to the separation of the kitchen (6) and the TV area (7), while the foyer area (4) designed for guest gathering is too small and rarely utilized by the client Instead, the client prefers to welcome guests directly in the living room Additionally, the client desires a backyard that is both functional and adorned with greenery.

The new floor plan fulfills the client's requirements by relocating the kitchen and dining area to the northern side (left) of the house. This creates a spacious kitchen (6) that connects directly to the dining table (5). The space left behind by the kitchen is transformed into a new living room area (7) with seating facing the southern wall (left) This setup allows for a direct connection between the kitchen (6) and the living room, enabling the person cooking to watch TV The wall separating the foyer (4) and the living room is removed to create a more spacious feel.

In the back area, the storage room (13) is eliminated and replaced with a laundry area. It also serves as a pathway connecting the dry kitchen to the wet kitchen The backyard is redesigned to provide an outdoor seating area for the client's enjoyment

Kitchen Kitchen connection with living room

The new kitchen incorporates some of the renovated cabinets from the old kitchen Additional cabinets were also installed to create more storage space and make the house look neater The new kitchen features a spacious bar table, which was not functional in the previous kitchen due to its small size and lack of seating area, as it was directly across from the dining table

The new sitting area in the living room feels more open and spacious because there is no longer a divider that made the old TV area feel cramped. It is now visually connected to the kitchen, allowing users in both areas to interact and see what each other are doing Additionally, a new sliding window has been added to increase the amount of natural light and fresh air flowing through the house

Backyard seating area

The back garden was desgined based on the client's desire for an outdoor seating area behind the house. It features an L-shaped permanent bench that can be used with a table for relaxation or working outside The table was created using repurposed balcony railing material, and concrete panels leftover from the front facade renovation were used as a covering Calathea plants were also planted behind the seating area to enhance the green ambiance

Kitchen connection with living room

Apart from the small foyer room, the problem actually begins with the terraces themselves. The old terrace on the right side of the front facade has been neglected due to minimal space and difficult access, often blocked by parked cars. However, in the new terrace, the pathway from the front yard to the front door provides a more direct circulation, making it easier to enter the house. Additionally, a permanent bench has been added to the yard, making the front entry more welcoming than before.

In Collaboration With Muhammad Ali

Inspired by the anime "Shokugeki no Soma," we created a millennial house where the user is imagined as the main character. We translated the main character's life from the anime into the design of the house, focusing on form and space Since the main character is a chef who enjoys experimenting with new recipes, the kitchen and dining room play a central role in their lifestyle In response to this, we have incorporated an innovative spatial plan that blurs the boundaries between the cooking, dining, and living areas, allowing for maximum space utilization. The design follows the principles of open space and combines elements of modern Japanese architecture.
