PROJECT 3

Individual project (60%)

For the final task, students are required to design an atelier at Wawasan Recreational Park, Puchong. An atelier in the tropic denotes ‘a structure that is designed for a pleasant living and working environment with access to nature to boost the immune system and improve psychological wellbeing. The structure should be within the built-up space of maximum 100sqm and be able to accommodate 2 people, including yourself and a family member comfortably in a short spend of time (2-3 days). The atelier must correspond to the immediate tropical site context. The relationship between your design and the context is important in making your architecture unique to its landscape and activity. The design of the structure must demonstrate your design intentions through the application of architectural principles, materiality and constructability in creating a memorable spatial experience for the user(s).
