Architectural Design Project is a studio that forms the cap stone for the Bachelor of Science (Hons) Architecture programme, emphasizing on the broad theme of sustaining humanities.
This module is a thematic studio based on the theme of “sustaining humanities’ architecture for people, place and time. Designing for sustainability has been a fundamental issue for architects in our time within global and regional contexts. In line with the current discourse on sustainability, It upholds the believe that architecture can create better places, that architecture can affect society and humanity, and that it can have a role in making a place civilized by making a community more liveable.
Students are required to further develop the proposed design project given by the studio supervisor that reflects the theme and finalize a programme that addresses the needs of the required user group, as well as provides spaces that invite interaction with the surrounding contextual conditions.

In this first part of the project, we students are to assemble all the parts and pieces of the bigger picture:
1.Reviewing building code and local or city ordinance,
2. Initiative on establishing design parameters,
3. Take initiative consider and study solar analysis and other site specific analysis,
4. Research on precedents or do actual visitation to projects related and directly relevant to the proposal and
5. Research on demography, user profile and understanding who we are designing for.

Following is the digital presentation done by my group for the pre-design analysis.
Site given is located in Titiwangsa Lake Garden, Kuala Lumpur.
