INTERNSHIP TRAINING AND REPORT [ARC 2615, ARC 2613 & ARC 2622] !

1

1.0 COMPANY INTRODUCTION A3 PROJECTS / Kenny Chong Architect, formerly known as ARCH CUBIC, is a multi-disciplinary architectural practice focusing on creating places for people leaded by Ar. Kenny Chong and Ar. Ho Choon Sin. The company’s design philosophy is to identify and fulfill client’s needs within an integrated architectural design approach, expressing built forms that can help creating a sense of place. They offer services range from master planning to interior design, no matter what projects was offered, they firmly believe, researches and communication with the clients is the key to successful architecture. The company promotes good relationship between the colleagues, so that they can work closely on various projects, it aims to achieve a good working environment and also provides great exposure to all through projects’ experiences. 2.0 INTERNSHIP EXPERIENCE This eight weeks of internship was a compulsory training program runs by the module of Bachelor of Science (Honours) in Architecture. It creates opportunity for the students to the expose to the career in an earlier stage, experience the working environment and learn how to work with a group that share a common target. Despite the fact that I am an intern, the company treat us as permanent workers that they would not hesitate to let us handle various type of works ranging from schematic design, documentation, handle architectural drawings, attending client consultant meetings, etc. The projects that I was involved in the past eight weeks included:

• Taiko Office, Ipoh • Wisma Taiko Office Refurbishment, Ipoh • Parcel E, Ipoh • 86 units Residential Development Pasir Putih, Ipoh • Parcel H, Supermarket, Ipoh • SY Bungalow, Ipoh • Apartment fit-out for unit 18-1, Megan Avenue


2

2.1 Taiko Office Location Jalan Sultan Dr. Nazrin Shah, Ipoh

Projects types Office building

Tasks • Prepare details study • Schematic design on details • Access regulatory context • Prepare architectural drawings with regard to building elements • Prepare submission documentation • Participate meetings with clients, consultants and suppliers • Prepare meetings’ report

I was first introduced to this project on the client’s meeting that I participated on my first day of internship, this project lasted more than a year on the schematic design stage, I was assigned to be involved in this project for the permit application stage. I am glad that I have the opportunity to design the details on the louvers, working with suppliers to and fro to get the details right, trying out details in 3D modelling and drawings would offer better understandings to both the clients and suppliers. And utilizing the knowledge that I had learned from the Building Service module, I had helped with the sanitary and water supply diagram for the building itself. I had also helped in doing the submission documentation both in Ipoh and Kuala Lumpur itself, it really enhance my knowledge towards the permit application progress. Lastly, one of the detail elements that I majorly participated in was the tiling design for the external façade cladding. This is truly an eye opening experience, as it widen my technical knowledge on the construction details on site, multiple meetings, follow ups with different suppliers and studies on tile external cladding as it not commonly practice in Malaysia, even small exercises like studying the tile sizes to match the design arrangement took place to perfect up the overall design, did changes along the way through elevation study, I had also took charge of the physical study model to look at the details of tiling and the small building elements, as an intern, I am glad that I have an opportunity to be part of it. 2.2 Parcel E Location Bandar Seri Botani, Off Jalan Gopeng, Ipoh

Projects types Housing development

Tasks • Schematic design on elevation • Prepare presentation drawings

Parcel E is currently developing on the second phase housing which is the Semi Detached houses located in Ipoh. I was assigned to do the elevation study based on the plan confirmed, it helps in widening my knowledge on the construction requirement on certain building elements and details, under the supervision of Ar. Kenny Chong, and colleague, Allia, they had given me great amount of advices to perfect the design of the


3

elevation but still allowing great space for my creativity, after few alteration and discussion on the 3d model, few perspectives were taken to be issue out for client’s review. And following up with the progress, I was given an opportunity to draw the alteration I did on plan, the designed elevations and section for client’s information. It was a tough progress during the section drawing stage as I do need some construction knowledge in terms of doing the sectional details, my colleague Yuan Li supervised the progress, she gave me great amount of support to answer all my questions and I did learn from doing the drawings, it enhanced my skill in terms of information drawings. The satisfactory of an intern when the drawings were issued to the client with your initial written beside “drawn by” are indescribable. 2.3 Wisma Taiko Refurbishment Location Jalan S P Seenivasagam, Ipoh

Projects types Interior refurbishment (Tender stage)

Tasks • Prepare precedent study on spaces • Prepare presentation renderings • Participate in tender bid presentation

Wisma Taiko is quite a significant building in Ipoh for its strategic location, it has been significant for few decades, this interior refurbishment project came in to strengthen its corporate identity, they had invited several firms for the tender bidding session. A few of us have been assigned on different tasks, I was assigned to do the precedent and renderings for the presentation. It was a really good practice as I am able to brush up my software skill which I think it is very important for an architect to express our design in terms of visual. The team has worked from layout design to tiny details like choice of furniture, color of paintings, all the details were to be taken care of. It was a really good experience in terms of looking into interior design to achieve the spatial quality of the specific space. Through this project, I realized precedent study is really crucial because it gave us an idea how the specific space had been done, and could allow your creativity to do the exploration. For this project, I am also glad that I was given an opportunity to participate in the tender bid presentation in Ipoh. Looking at how the presentation materials were used on the presentation itself, I was really proud with the team; hours we spent were finally paid off. And for the presentation itself, as I can see how clients reflect to the ideas our side proposed, the concerns they were looking into, from practicality, construction even to the smallest details, how Ar. Kenny Chong and Ar. Ho Choon Sin present and answer to the questions were indeed an eye opening experience, which enhance my knowledge in terms of presentation skills.

2.4 Parcel H Location Bandar Seri Botani, Off Jalan Gopeng, Ipoh

Projects types Mixed commercial development

Tasks • Access regulatory context • Prepare building elements study • Schematic design on building elements

Parcel H is a mixed commercial development, from supermarket to housing, its development aimed to urbanize the surrounding area. Internship changed my perception towards a lot of things, one of the thing is tiny details that I often overlook are actually taken care of during the design and construction stage. For this project, I was assigned to design the shaded structure from the supermarket to the car park. It was quite a fun progress as during design stage as I looked into a lot of precedent study because I would need to know how a real construction of a shaded structure be like to proceed for designing, this is what I learned from my supervisor, always understand before proceed to design stage. After a few exploration and understand the practicality of the shaded structure, I designed a few options and carried out a few discussions to get to the right track, to match the shaded structure with the surrounding structure designed. Ar. Kenny Chong told me, being a responsible architect, every part of the structure being designed should be taken care of even though a small walkway would actually compliment the architecture designed. Therefore, me myself being responsible for this design, I understand the importance of my role to compliment the architecture itself. 2.5 S.Y. Bungalow Location Leboh Chateau, Chateau Garden, Ipoh, Mukim Hulu Kinta

Projects types Private residence

Tasks • Access regulatory context • Prepare building elements study • Schematic design on building elements

This project came in to me at the last month of my internship. It was a private residence’s refurbishment, whereby the interior layout was changed and elevations are studied based on the client’s requirement. My task for this project was to further study on the elevation, design the elevations based on the external structure. Alteration was to be done for exterior and the interior, therefore studies were done to explore what changes can be made to enhance the overall architecture. I was given a great amount of support to work with my colleague, and to discuss our works concurrently to achieve a better design. Not only working on the form with the 3D model itself, we also worked together with the sections and plans for better understandings towards the building. For this specific project, it seems quite challenging to me as the existing bungalow itself has
