Project 2
Wellness Center PLUS
For our final project, we are to design a Wellness Centre PLUS, community health and recreational facility within the Kepong Botanical Gardens site. The PLUS component in my design is a daycare centre for dementia patients. From the site analysis project, we have to provide design proposals and generate narratives that respond to the environment and community. The design should also merge and contribute to the site and consider sustainability and materiality.
Outcome:
-
4 A0 landscape boards
-
A 1:150 scale physical model
Workshop Compilations
A0 Presentation Boards
Reflection
This project highlighted that our design should consider all factors, the environmental needs, the site, materiality, sustainability, architectural spaces, and users’ experience. It was quite tiring, and I stuck with ideas, especially towards the end of this project. Still, I’ve learned a lot from Ms. Shahira’s tutorials, lectures, and workshops given throughout this period. For my design, I should improve the accessibility and sensibility factor, especially when my user group is mainly elderly.
