Bachelor of Science in Architecture
Taylor's University
Architecture is a journey, it is a testimony of my maturity. From basic hand-drawn ideas to 3D render and graphics of projects. I always running in a jungle of trend and forecasts, pursuing inspiration every semester. Exploring on form, languages or experiential quality, sometimes it can be irrational. However, when architects create space which can be argued as successful, why not?
10. Retreat House was inspired by leave of the surrounding. The user will experience 360
panaromic view of the surrouing area and fell like landed into a natural wonderland
and experience the calmness.

13. During this process capture most of the views
around the site is important. From linear to angular,
and still remaining the concept of courtyard house.

24. Destino
A tragic love story of Chronos, the personification of time, who
falls in love with a mortal woman as the two float across the surre-
alist landscapes of Dali’s paintings.
She dances around a desertscape that morphs into a maze while she
drops trou and slips into a stunning dress, catching the eye of an
unreachable man.
25. The juxtaposition of the two creative geniuses behind it,
each bringing his own life-lens to the project --- DalĂ de-
scribed the film as “A magical display of the problem of life
in the labyrinth of time” and Disney called it “A simple story
about a young girl in search of true love.”
Walt Disney
Entrertainment innovator
Animation Pioneer
Dreamer
Salvador Dali
Innovative fine artist
Unique personality
Surrealist
Although seem like opposite on the surface, two innovators
really were in blurring the lines between reality & dreams.
From paralled to unparalleled, it helps to develop a long
lasting frienship between them.
Architect of The Imagination
Walt Disney x Salvador Dali
26. Litmitless Imagination
Based on the given short film, we created a experential journey, that user may experi-
ence 2 different spaces, which respectively represent Disney’s & Dali’s character.
After understanding both of them, users will realised that deep down, both of them are
actually the same.
Bright & clear direction Striking visual art
27. Walt Disney
Dreamy like a more
comfortable journey.
However, he is outgoing
towards public, shy still
shy while he is alone
Salvador Dali
Edgy form that strike
people visual. He used to
flip reality lending to his
subjects characteristics
opposite and feel
mysterious in his artwork
Similarity
When both of them came together and became similar ---

Creeating contrastivity of spaces throughout the journey and
in a meawhile both of the spaces are influencing each other
to have that similarity in the end.

44. Gelugor
Gelugor used to be a plantation area uring colonial era. While
suburban movement was introduced for civil servant. Slowly but
surely the housing is differentiating the community by higher
class and middle class.
45. Wholistic
However, they are interconnecting to each other by a informal pe-
destrian walkway in our site and created a wholistic community.
Middle class community

Reggio Emilia is an innovative and inspriring approach to early
childhood education which values the child as strong, capable
and resillent. Every child brings with them deep curiousity and
drives theirs interest to understand their world.

49. Views to show SKY TREE GROUND
Public spaces lay on the same axis and
spread out to indivudual spaces
Each levels representing and having different
views of SKY TREE GROUND
Derived from the central space to encourrage

50. Killer Perspective
The second floor lead user to look upwards of Sky and
Tree and create a unobstruc view to the school.
51. Space Exploration
Inside and outside relationship is emphasis in my primary school to
relate back the Sky Tree Ground concept. Most of the classrooms
need to be engage with the environment and act as a learning
materials for the children through views or physical.
64. Jalan Alor
Jalan Alor a place that well known as food paradise located just
behind Jalan Bukit Bintang and Changkat Bukit Bintang. This three
street form a Golden Traingle area for clubbing and dining in KL
city center. By sitting in the middle of golden traingle created the
flux in lifestyle of Jalan Alor and I will decribe it as a CLOCK.
