3. The idea is to subvert from the conventional learning system and environment into learning spaces within nature where active learnings are
encouraged in order to stimulate the physical senses of the community and to have freedom to express their thoughts and creations freely.
By introducing a co-learning center into the park, it allows the community to fully experience and enjoy the new learning environment with
different communities from different fields. Besides catering spaces for the community to do their work, this center also encourages the
communities to collaborate, to share knowledge in workshops and to explore new ideas with each other.

The following are the objectives:
1. To extend the learning spaces into the park
2. To become a catalyst to bring communities from different fields together
3. To provide a public space that further encourages pollination of knowledge and ideas
4. To provide condusive learning space for the community

Sunway Group
One of Malaysia’s largest companies with core interests to improve the quality of life of the communities through 12
business divisions which includes property, construction, retail and education.
Student Community
There are very little students spotted in the site due to the unfavourable environment for them to study and play.
Vendors / Stall Owners
Existing stall vendors and illegal bicycle vendors are the main activities which have created a distinctive node to the site.
Local Community
The local community will usually spend their day in the site as it is shady and there are a few food stalls and vendors which create a local node.
Tourist Community
The park is a main attraction to draw tourist to enjoy the green environment within the hustle and bustle city of Kuala Lumpur.
5. 3
The site is located on the South-West of Taman Tasik Titiwangsa
along Jalan Kuantan, Titiwangsa, Kuala Lumpur. It has a few
existing food stall vendors and also illegal bicycle rentals. A row of
matured trees lining up on the west side creates shading on half
of the site. The road adjacent to the site has high traffic during
peak hours and even more congested during the schooling days.
The site is one of the main entrances for the community to enter
the park. It acts as a pit stop for the community to hang-out, eat
and rent bicycles.
Strength
- Site as the starting point of the Tasik Titiwangsa park
- Strategically located along main road that is highly visible to
site
- Paranomic view of Titiwangsa lake from site
Site is half shaded by existing trees
Weakness
- Highly congested traffic during peak hours
- Roots coming off from ground causing uneven ground
Opportunities
- Catalyst to gather communities to obtain and share ideas and
knowledge
- A new learning environment within the nature
- An extension co-learning center for students to stay before
going to exercise in the park
Threats
- Air and noise pollution create by vehicles adjacent to the site
- Construction has to take precaution of the existing trees’ roots
6. 4
Politics
The government school education system today is textbook driven. This system has became rigid where students are often confined in a box.
With the rigid system, it has confined the students’ interpersonal and thinking skills. As a result, students have problems in communicating and
to think creatively out of the box. This causes the students to have less interest to attend schools and often seen loitering around during
schooling hours.
Environmental
Existing matured trees in site shall be protected. The ground around the tree spread shall be protected to prevent contamination from materials
and chemicals detrimental to plant growth. Besides that, the air pollution in the site is severe as it is located next to the primary road. This will
eventually effect the community’s health in long term.
Sociological
The park acts as a leeway for the communities to have a break away from the city and mingle around with the nature throughout the day.
Majority of the user groups surrounding the site are mostly local residents and students. The park is mostly very calm and quiet during the
afternoon. In weekends and holidays, the park will be filled up with families and tourists, enjoying the facilities and activities such as jogging,
cycling, aerobics, fishing and picnics.
Technological
Usage of BIM technology in construction management reduces the construction time due to its ability to simulate and detect problems during
construction process.
Legal
Strict requirements set by DBKL and UBBL shall be followed to ensure the safety of the community around the site and in the proposed building.
The site required to have 2m green belt set back and additional 6m of bomba setback from the building boundary.
Economic
With food stalls and illegal bicycle rental on site, this has attracted the local community and tourist to gather around the site. This illegal rental
service is a side income for the local community. Unfortunately, these rental bicycles will be confiscated by DBKL authority. This eventually has
effected the businesses in Taman Tasik Titiwangsa to be reduced.

1 | Orientation of building entrances
based on existing entry points and trees
to create the continuity circulation from
the park into the building.
2 | Adding secondary entrances to
further enhance the entry point
permeability of the building.
3| Two fire escape staircases are
required based on by-law 168 in
UBBL.
4 | Middle space as a gathering
point to link four parts into one.
5 | Extrude massing into three floors
to blend in within the existing trees’
height.
6 | Larger openings are placed on
north-east of the building to allow
lake breeze to enter while having a
picturesque Tasik Titiwangsa view.
7 | Collaborative spaces (white) will
slowly transform into individual spaces
(brown) as the floor level increases.
Higher concentration of white spaces
are nearer to the lake while brown
spaces are nearer to the existing trees.
8 | Four types of informal learnings
spaces are placed to determine the
programmatic functions.

Overall Total G.F.A. (m²) = Lower Ground Floor + Ground Floor + First Floor +
Second Floor
= 1,659 m² + 798.9 m² + 656.7 m² + 367.7 m²
= 3,482.3 m²
Convert m² to ft² = 3482.3 m² x 10.67
= 37,469.548 ft²
Total Building Cost = Overall Total G.F.A (ft²) x RM200/ft²
= 37,469.548 ft² x RM200/ft²
= RM 7,493,909.60
The building has overall total G.F.A. of 37,469.548 ft², thus the estimate total
building cost is RM 7,493,909.60.

The followings are the project objectives :
1. To ensure the quality of the project meets the client’s objectives and expectations
2. To deliver the project on time and within the budget given
3. To reduce the risk project throughout the project
Short Term | To ensure the project runs smoothly and no accidents happen
Long Term | Develop a community which loves sharing and learns various knowledges from difference fields.
The primary objective of this project is to achieve high quality outcome within the time frame and budget given while fulfilling the required set of
scopes. To achieve a successful project, it requires proper planning and the help from the management team to ensure the project runs
smoothly.
The end product should meet its intended purpose goals and objective while producing a good architectural work. Design consideration should
be taken into account to cater to the public while ensuring good workmanship of the building during the construction phase.
The time frame given for the project is within a period of 17 months from 4th of December 2017 to 30th April 2019. Thus, each phases of the
project should strictly follow the time frame as planned in Gantt chart to ensure no delays of the project. WBS and risk analysis has been
conducted at initial phase to outline the scope of work involved, and its potential risk.
The budget allocated for the proposed project is RM9 million, fully funded by Sunway Group. This includes all stages from preliminary, pre-
construction, post-construction and building operation cost. Close monitoring and proper estimation of cost should be done throughout the
project to prevent over budget.
11. 9
In this project, conventional method of project procurement will be used with tendering process. Open tender process has a corporate values of
transparency, openness and responsibility which will attract many competitive contractors to submit their tenders. Although this process will
take a longer process, it has a competitive equity as all tendering contractors bid on the same basis. With this, the level of competition will
increase thus, there will be many attractive pricing from the contractors.
