i. partition boards to display the selected presentation drawings, and

URBAN AND REGIONAL PLANNING




Project 6 - DESIGN & BUILD 'AN AMPHITHEATRE STAGE'

we're required to build mini amphitheatre stage (for live performance function). The design must consider the topography condition of the given site (next to the end of the HBP E08 Studio Block facing the Penang Bridge) and tropical climate of Malaysia which is characteristic by heavy rain, intense sunshine, windless condition etc....

Project 5 : SENSE OF PLACE : NEIGHBOURHOOD & COMMUNITY



Setia Greens, Sg. Ara, Penang


Project 5a - Neighbourhood Elements : Existing Condition

for this project we're required to draw the Key Plan, the Location Plan and also the Layout Plan.




neighbourhood elements that observed in the Layout Plan such as:
  • Movement Network
  • Lot Layout
  • Public Open Space
  • Public Facilities and Amenities
  • Landscape and Street Furniture
on the same layout plan we also must show the basic physical  and environmental aspects like sun path, prevailing wind direction, vistas and vegetation.



Project 5b - Neighbourhood Elements : Proposed Improvement

for project 5b, we should propose some suggestions to improve the physical and non-physical conditions of the neighbourhood area.



suggestions that i make for Setia Green, Sg Ara is :
  1. to put fencing in the playground for the safety.
  2. put convex mirror at sharp bend. 'Objects in mirror are closer than they appear', to warn the driver of the convex mirror's distorting effects on distance perception. Convex mirrors are preferred in vehicles because they give an upright, though diminished, image. Also they provide a wider field of view as they are curved outwards.
  3. plant more trees to  reduce noise pollution
  4. planning and access for disabled people
  5. put recycle bins

Project 4



 A comforTABLE CHAIR



- in this project we're divided into groups. Each group have three members. We are required to produce a structural model of a wooden L-shape seating object that combines a table and chairs.




 
so this is how my comforTABLE CHAIR looks like. credit to my partners HARIZ & KIM because doing good job ;)

thumbs up for both of you (y)

Project 2 : Natural & Man-Made Structure

for project 2, we are required to submit two pieces of sketching. first is natural structure and another one is man-made structure. both sketching must be found around USM Main Campus


for natural structure I've chose to draw the 'COCONUT TREE'

Project 2 (a) : Natural structure

the Uses of Coconut Tree from the leaves down to roots are its main benefits for many ages on tropical countries and slowly got introduce to other civilization.



ok next, here is the man-made structure that I've chose, and this is how my drawing looks like :P
