CORAL

Achieving the perfect

balance between technology

and humanity in architecture

enables it to sustain

continuous growth. Corals

constantly rebuild their living

structures, allowing steady

flows of abundant sea animals

to make them their home and

feeding ground. Our vision is

to build a city where life flows

efficiently without limitation.

LEAF

Despite ever-changing

conditions, a leaf works to

supply food to the rest of the

plant while providing the

atmosphere with oxygen. We

believe in building cities

whose individual parts

constantly support each

other, resulting in systems

that are forever productive.

SHELL

Cities must be built with

occupants in mind,

making them habitats

conducive to live in for a

lifetime. Very much like a

shell, it constantly

improves its home,

rendering its shelter to

perfection, and lives in

harmony with its natural

habitat. Our foremost

concern is not only the

present but also the future

comforts of the people

who live within our city.

The focal point is located at the Station sentral kl because it has

the lowest height compared to surrounding building

KL Central Sheltered from Sun

Due to the strategic location of KL central in the middle of the

group of buildings which are taller, the hub is sheltered from

direct sun lightThe elevation sketch shows the hierarchy of KL Sentral.

External metal louver screen provide sun shading system

to lower the building temperature like leaf use

photosynthesis to produce oxygen by absorbing light,

water and carbon dioxide.

Glass

Concrete

The materials are mostly or all glass like leaf to

absorb the sunlight which use for photosynthesis

Usage of opaque material at ground to first floor

level provide security to the user, and enhance the

sense of direction / location of openings

Usage of transparent material like glass on the

upper floors improve the overall light condition at

site by allowing sun light penetration to increase

natural lifted space. Like the leaf absorb sunlight

and use it as the main energy source.

The furthest buildings within 400m of walkable distance from the

station, it corresponds to the distance someone can walk in 5

minutes at 4.8km/h.

It becomes more encouraging with the covered walkway to shelter

against rain, zebra crossing, traffic light, 24 hour securities for each

drop off area. This creates a common space shared by low-wage

service workers as well as high value knowledge workers and

creative professionals.

With 400m walking distance residents have easy access to daily

needs in the diversified CBD, thus creating a Transit Orientated

Development.

1. Activities are being solely separated with area in Brickfields – involvement of public is saturated.

2. KL Sentral has become its own island by itself to sustain the development.

3. Spaces connecting or linking for exchange usage has become a private space where public usage is restricted.

4. Not cultural responsive

5. Public Spaces are privatized by building owner

6. Activities are mainly to boost economic, seldom cultural activities

Design Ideas Categories Statement

CORAL

Corals constantly rebuild their living structures,

allowing steady flows of abundant sea animals to

make them their home and feeding ground. Our

vision is to build a city where life flows efficiently

without limitation.

FormThe 15 division of the lands contain buildings with mixed-use functions to sustain the residents at the central

Movement and Circulation

The loop circulation provides a better traffic condition within KL Central

However, due to the juxtaposition of the main roads were always at the center of congestion, the loop circulation planning is only effective within KL Central

LEAF

Despite ever-changing conditions, a leaf works to

supply food to the rest of the plant while providing

the atmosphere with oxygen. We believe in

building cities whose individual parts constantly

support each other, resulting in systems that are

forever productive

Movement AndCirculation

The types of public transports provided in KL Central are abundance and linked for normal people.

However, the limited drop off points, unfriendly pedestrian path can be an issue to the pedestrian users, also to the disabled people (etc: blind) from Brickfield

Activities and Functions

The building types at KL Central is designed mostly as mixed typology in order to sustain the population within the KL Central. The functions provided are retail, entertainment, residential, office and transportation hub.

However, the provided facilities are most of the time benefit the residents within KL Central. Due to most of the facilities in KL Central are targeted to users at middle to above middle classes, the poorer residents might also not able to appreciate the benefits.

SHELL

like a shell, it constantly improves its home,

rendering its shelter to perfection, and lives in

harmony with its natural habitat. Our foremost

concern is not only the present but also the future

comforts of the people who live within our city.

Movement and Circulation

The use of the loop circulation planning in KL Central can be viewed as a future vision to decrease the traffic issue, hence comfort level of the users within the site when the population density increases

However, the lack of consideration of the adjacent site and the actual traffic condition at site limited the execution of the vision

FormThe order of the building are designed to be consistent walkability space. However, the planning introduce diffuse space and lower down security around the site. Also, the lack of balance between built form and landscape decrease the comfort level of the residents.

Position:

Assignment 1: Ideas and Theories In Urbanism

The overall urban planning is not effective at macro

scale because:

1. It does not fully meet the objectives of the design

intention

2. The planning is not interacting with local social

culture/ social activities

3. The circulation planning has not consider the macro

environment

4. The functions and activities proposed were not

considered for all classes of the

Local people

5. There is no sufficient public realm or landscape as

proposed

6. Façade design is not users responsive

7. Planning lack of cultural identity – not local friendly
