Architecture Design studio 5 tutorial.

The final outcome was to design a contemporary market space within an urban infill, which in our case design a market place within a city space called the Chowkit, which is a subdistrict within the city of KualaLumpur.

 The design of the building is to consist of appropriate architectural responses that address the aspects of the urban street context and user behavioural patterns as discerned and analysed in the Preliminary Studies.

Apart from developing an appropriate formal and elevational strategy in response to the character of the street, the design should take into consideration a holistic application of structural, spatial, functional and environmental requirements to address the user needs for an urban market-place. The design development of this project will include an introduction to the legislative restrictions that impact an architectural scheme, the integration of lighting and acoustic design, as well as the design exploration and detailing of the façade and building envelopes that is coherent with the architectural language of the overall design project.

The issue I picked was the lack of a sense of community, in an area like Chowkit, as it is a place which holds a number of different cultures. so to build a community and make everyone 1, i thought by designing an art and crafts market, would join the community with one interest.

I went through a design process in creating this market space.

Below are my final presentation boards of my design.
