1.0  ABSTRACT  

The  design  proposal  challenges  to  create  not  only  a  supporZng  architectural  posiZon,  but  also  to  explore  the  possibiliZes  of  sustaining  humanity  and  the  

environment.  The  equilibrium  of  consideraZon  towards  architecture,  the  communiZes  and  the  natural  and  urban  environment  is  studied  and  applied.    

 

The  objecZve  of  this  project  is  to  perceive  architecture  not  as  purely  iconic  or  monumental  structures  but  as  an  element  that  encourages  acZviZes  that  iniZate  and  

bear  the  well-­‐fare  of  the  communiZes  that  are  facing  social  difficulZes  in  the  society.  CreaZng  landscapes  in  an  urban  sefng  can  act  as  a  catalyst  to  introduce  the  

programmes.    

 

The  fusion  of  an  Urban  Farm  and  a  public  vegetable  market  introduces  as  a  starZng  point  for  recruiZng  individuals  that  are  straining  to  apply  for  employment  in  the  

city  due  to  the  lack  of  educaZonal  background.  It  also  work  towards  integraZng  and  unifying  the  contemporary  migrants  who  seek  refuge  or  looking  for  job  

opportuniZes,  and  are  limited  by  foreign  literacy  and  language  barriers.  The  programmes  aim  to  create  a  temporary  place  for  them  to  search  for  their  posiZon  in  the  

society,  and  build  their  confidence  and  self-­‐esteem  to  reach  for  higher  opportuniZes.    

 

The  design  is  inspired  to  achieve  a  natural  and  almost  raw  detail  of  the  materials,  preserving  the  honest  yet  sZll  contemporary  appearance.  Voids  and  pocket  spaces  

are  provided  as  an  integraZon  of  the  programmes  and  user  experiences,  instead  of  solid  walls.    

 

ConsideraZon  towards  the  degree  of  public  and  private  spaces  were  taken  in  the  spaZal  planning,  separated  by  transiZon  spaces  that  allows  people  to  understand  

and  experience  the  programme  and  architecture.

3.0  CONTEXTUAL  STUDY  Site  History  

Houses  during  the  Zme  were  made  of  wood  and  ahap.  In  1882,  the  houses    in  Kuala  Lumpur  were  caught  in  a  massive  fire  

outbreak.  Sir  Frank  Swehenham,  first  Resident  General  of  the  Federated  Malay  States,  launched  a  reconstrucZon  order  to  

rebuild  the  houses  that  lasted  five  years.    

 

Sir  Frank  Swehenham  iniZated  the  construcZon  of  a  railway  line  between  Klang  and  Kuala  Lumpur,  increasing  the  

accessibility  to  Kuala  Lumpur  and  spurred  the  growth  of  the  town.    

 

Pudu  was  established,  mainly  serving  as  a  residenZal  area  for  the  Zn  miners  working  in  the  city.    

 

The  populaZon  grew  from  4,500  in  1884  to  20,000  in  1890.  As  majority  of  Kuala  Lumpur  were  composed  of  Chinese  Zn  

miners,  they  were  relocated  to  the  outskirts  of  the  city.  This  resulted  in  Pudu  being  a  more  dense  Chinese  area.    

 

Pudu  LRT  StaZon  was  launched  as  part  of  the  first  phase  of  the  STAR  system's  opening,  alongside  13  adjoining  staZons  along  

the  Sultan  Ismail-­‐Ampang  route.

3.0  CONTEXTUAL  STUDY  Site  Issue  

Limited  job  opportuniBes  for  the  locals  

The  number  of  contemporary  migrants  increases  in  the  area  as  a  result  of  low  cost  residences  and  the  high  probability  of  being  employed  in  small  

businesses  because  of  the  cheaper  wage  as  compared  to  hiring  locals.      

 

Lack  of  opportuniBes  to  expand  outside  of  Pudu  

Due  to  the  increasing  expenses  for  higher  educaZon  and  the  requirement  for  employees  to  possess  a  certain  level  of  educaZonal  background,  it  is  

harder  for  the  people  to  look  for  job  opportuniZes  especially  in  the  city  center.    

 

Secluded  abandoned  lot  

The  lot  is  currently  and  abandoned  lot,  the  previous  development  having  suffered  through  a  fire  and  was  burnt  down  to  the  bare  ground  structure  a  

long  Zme  ago.  A  part  of  the  lot  is  now  being  used  as  a  parking  space  for  the  nearby  Hindu  Temple.  However,  the  rest  of  the  lot  remains  untouched,  

with  foliage  growing  big  and  dense,  making  it  a  possible  locaZon  for  homeless  people  or  drug  addicts  to  loiter.    

 

Future  forced  relocaBon  of  the  low  cost  apartments  

The  low  cost  apartments  nearby  the  site  are  set  to  be  demolished  in  the  future  to  make  way  for  medium  cost  apartments.  The  current  residents  will  

be  displaced  from  their  homes  during  the  demoliZon  and  development  period.  In  addiZon,  most  of  them  are  not  able  to  afford  the  new  apartments  

thus  are  forced  to  find  new  places  to  stay.

3.0  CONTEXTUAL  STUDY  SWOT  Analysis    

These  are  the  strengths  that  were  acquired  from  the  site.  The  LRT  staZon  towards  the  East  of  the  site  allows  good  accessibility  for  users.  The  locaZon  of  the  site  provides  an  opportunity  of  catering  to  a  wide  range  of  users.  

There  are  plenty  of  opportuniZes  that  can  be  uZlized  for  our  design.  As  the  site’s  target  users  are  of  different  racial  backgrounds,  designing  a  mulifaith  centre  can  educate  users  on  the  importance  humanity  &  togetherness.  The  empty  space  around  site  ensures  the  area  does  not  appear  overly  cluhered.  

Page 8: Design report

3.0  CONTEXTUAL  STUDY  SWOT  Analysis    

Weaknesses  of  the  site  include  low  cost  apartment  flats  that  block  out  views  towards  the  Northwest.  Visually,  the  area  appears  overly  cluhered  and  busy.  Another  weakness  is  the  Jalan  San  Peng’s  overall  safety  as  there  have  been  many  reports  of  snatch  theps  

The  smell  caused  by  the  poorly  maintained  river  poses  a  great  threat  to  the  site.  Lastly,  the  upcoming  demoliZon  of  the  low  cost  flats  will  result  in  the  displacement  of  current  residents,  losing  their  homes  as  well  as  their  jobs.

4.0  PROPOSED  PROGRAMME  

According  to  demographic  studies  of  the  site  shown  above,  there  are  diverse  communiZes  that  exist  in  the  area,  from  workers  to  school  students  and  local  residents.  

However,  with  the  majority  of  the  community  being  the  contemporary  migrants  and  the  pink  collar  workers,  they  are  targeted  as  the  main  patrons  of  the  building.  As  

farm  work  being  the  most  basic  for  of  physical  labor,  it  doesn’t  require  much  skills  to  perform,  thus  providing  an  opportunity  for  the  pink  collar  workers  and  migrants  

who  struggle  from  the  lack  of  proper  or  higher  educaZon,  or  language  barriers.  A  space  is  provided  for  to  sell  the  farm  produce  as  well  as  for  the  local  market  to  rent  

as  the  building  does  not  compete  with  the  local  market  but  encourages  the  economy  in  the  local  context.    

 

The  farm  is  supported  by  a  verZcal  system,  that  is  far  more  sustainable  as  compared  to  convenZonal  farming.  It  works  in  a  closed  watering  system  called  hydroponic.  

To  take  the  further  step,  aquaponic  system  is  used  to  further  support  the  hydropnic  system,  whereby  the  farm  is  equipped  with  an  aquaculture  element.  It  does  not  

only  encourage  the  town  to  farm  within  the  city  context  but  the  aquaculture  contributes  to  the  local  economy.  The  programme  provided  will  allow  the  workers  to  

learn  and  brush  up  their  communicaZng  and  business  skills,  a  step  further  towards  venturing  out  towards  the  city  center.

5.0  PRECEDENT  STUDY  West  Louisville  Food  Hub,  Kentucky,  U.S.  -­‐  OMA  

Designed  by  OMA,  the  proposed  project  is  located  in  West  Louisville,  Kentucky,  U.S..  It  is  a  collaboraZon  with  a  nonprofit  organizaZon  Seed  Capital  Kentucky  that  frames  indoor  and  outdoor  farming  areas,  as  well  as  retail  spaces  and  distribuZon  faciliZes.  The  garden  landscape  will  contain  flowers,  herbs,  berries  and  plants,  all  which  are  edible.  

A  market  space  will  occupy  the  site,  where  the  farmers  can  sell  fresh  produce;  a  kitchen  incubator  for  startup  catering  and  wholesale  food  businesses.  A  farming  demonstraZon  area  and  accompanying  classrooms,  library  and  a  retail  space  for  food  trucks  will  also  be  provided.

5.0  PRECEDENT  STUDY  VerZcal  Harvest,  Wyoming,  U.S.  –  E/Ye  Design  

Inside,  the  plants  move  throughout  each  greenhouse  floor  on  a  conveyor  belt  that  the  founders  compare  to  a  moving  rack  at  a  dry  cleaner.  As  they  rotate,  each  plant  gets  an  equal  amount  of  Zme  in  natural  light  on  the  south  side  of  the  building,  saving  energy  in  arZficial  lighZng.  On  the  top  level,  the  system  also  pulls  plants  up  to  the  ceiling,  effecZvely  creaZng  an  extra  floor.  The  conveyor  also  brings  each  plant  to  workers  who  can  transplant  or  harvest  the  crops.  

The  small  plot  of  land  is  owned  by  the  town,  and  the  building  that  houses  the  farm  will  be  owned  by  the  town  as  well,  as  part  of  a  partnership.  The  founders  spent  five  years  working  with  the  city  to  fully  vet  the  idea—from  how  well  the  business  model  can  support  itself  to  how  the  efficient  the  new  building  will  be.    The  startup  plans  to  employ  workers  with  developmental  disabiliZes  who  have  few  local  opZons  for  a  job.  The  job  is  developed  based  on  how  many  hours  someone  wants  to  work  and  can  work

9.0  PROJECT  MANAGEMENT  Programme  Viability  

With  the  contemporary  migrants  and  pink  collar  workers  predominaZng  the  Pudu  community,  helping  these  group  of  people  have  become  the  main  objecZve  in  

order  to  aid  them  to  build  self-­‐confidence  and  to  iniZate  them  to  find  their  place  in  the  society.  As  farm  work  being  the  most  basic  for  of  physical  labor,  it  doesn’t  

require  a  lot  of  skills  to  use  and  the  skills  are  easy  to  learn.  It  provides  an  opportunity  for  the  pink  collar  workers  and  migrants  who  struggle  from  the  lack  of  proper  or  

higher  educaZon,  or  language  barriers.    

 

To  make  it  commercially  viable,  the  programme    also  offers  a  small  scale  vegetable  market,  as  well  as  a  space  for  the  local  market  to  rent,  to  sell  produce  and  

penerate  an  income.  The  workers  are  also  able  to  engage  in  the  market,  in  order  to  overcome  the  language  barrier  and  develop  basic  business  skills.  There  are  also  

food  stalls  that  operates  beside  the  market,  where  the  workers  can  ahempt  to  learn  basic  cooking  skills  as  well,  which  the  classes  will  be  conducted  within  the  

building  itself.  

The  urban  farm  can  also  be  used  as  a  learning  tool  for  the  students  from  nearby  insZtutes  and  schools,  so  that  they  are  able  to  learn  a  sort  of  life  skill  and  botany  knowledge.  They  will  also  be  up  to  date  on  the  latest  food  and  agriculture  technology  at  the  global  stage  and  sharing  knowledge  of  researches  from  internaZonal  insZtuZons  and  universiZes.  

Farming  skills  are  one  of  human’s  most  basic  and  one  of  the  easier  skills  to  learn  of  compared  to  other  skills.  It  is  helpful  for  the  pink  collar  workers  or  the  contemporary  migrants  to  be  able  to  work  at  a  farm  since  it  does  not  require  high  level  of  educaZonal  background  and  it  being  right  in  the  middle  of  the  town,  they  are  not  isolated  from  modern  civilizaZon.  

Urban  farms  are  far  more  producZve,  able  to  produce  at  the  highest  quality  under  controlled  environments  compared  to  tradiZonal  farming.  Thus  leading  to  access  for  organic  and  fresh  produce  all  year-­‐round.  It  is  also  sustainable  when  implemented  with  energy  saving  technology  and  the  fact  that  urban  farming  uses  far  less  space  and  may  grow  verZcally,  leading  to  more  produce  to  be  planted  compared  to  tradiZonal  horizontal  farming.  AcZng  as  a  food  source,  the  farm  will  encourage  healthy  lifestyle  for  the  local  communiZes  and  forming  a  stronger  bond  between  the  locals.    

These  are  supporZng  spaces  that    help  ahract  patrons  or  visitors  to  come  and  experience  the  building    and  programme  and  perhaps  encouraging  them  for  support  or    apply  for  job  opportuniZes.  

The  profit  received  from  the  fish  breeding  and  the  food  stall  help  to  sustain  the  building.  

The  profit  made  from  selling  the    produce  are  what  keeps  the    building  running.

9.0  PROJECT  MANAGEMENT  Risk  Analysis  

In  order  to  achieve  the  project’s  goal,  there  are  criteria  that  needed  to  be  considered  such  as  below:  i.  Quality  To  fulfill  the  customer  saZsfacZon,  quality  is  the  priority  in  success  criteria.  Maintenance  of  worksmanship  during  the  construcZon  phase  

ensures  aestheZc  and  designed  quality  of  the  building.  Every  design  detail  needs  to  be  paid  ahenZon  to.  (Example:  Outdoor  faciliZes  such  as  

parking  lots  for  vehicles  and  bike  stands  for  bicycles,  in  order  to  increase  the  accessibility  for  the  patrons.  Other  than  that,  the  quality  of  a  project  can  be  measured  through  grading  by  GBI  (Green  Building  Index).  The  use  of  low  embodied  energy  

materials  and  the  encouragement  of  natural  venZlaZon  are  one  of  the  ways  to  increase  energy  efficiency.  Sustainable  systems  are  also  being  

used,  such  as  the  rainwater  harvesZng  system  in  order  to  promote  sustainability  while  increasing  the  building’s  lifespan.    

ii.  Cost  The  urban  farm  is  parZally  funded  by  the  local  government  and  NGO  donaZons.  The  budget  required  for  the  building  is  esZmated  to  be  

RM8.7  million  in  order  to  complete  the  construcZon.  Costs  can  be  reduced  by  minimizing  construcZon  errors  and  defects  to  reduce  material  

wastage,  and  by  implemenZng  IBS  (Industrialized  Building  System)  on  modular  building  components  and  reduce  labour  costs.  

 

ii.  Time  The  esZmated  Zme  taken  for  the  project  to  be  completed  is  slightly  over  than  one  year  (4  November  2015  -­‐  10  December  2016).To  ensure  that  the  construcZon  completes  on  Zme,  each  task  is    

carried  out  by  strictly  following  the  Ganh  Chart.  The  CerZficate  of  CompleZon  and  Compliance  (CCC)  will  be  issued  and  received  not  later  than  

February  2017.
