This document provides details on the lighting analysis for a community library project in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. It includes summaries of the artificial lighting analysis and daylight factor analysis conducted for two specific spaces - an art gallery and a discussion area. For the art gallery, calculations determine that 27 recessed LED fixtures are needed to provide adequate 300 lux illumination. For the discussion area, daylight factor calculations show the space achieves 3.32% daylight factor and 664 lux of natural light, enough for activities.

This document provides a comparative analysis of two urban streets - University Belt in Manila, Philippines and Medan Pasar in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. It examines the urban landscapes, economies, streetscapes, social activities, and cultures of the two areas. While both function as commercial streets, they differ in aspects like physical environment, user groups, contact intensities, and types of social activities. University Belt caters more to locals and students, with informal districts and nightlife, while Medan Pasar has many foreign workers and is a former marketplace focused now on shops and public transport. The analysis considers how factors like climate, street design, and the people shape the social patterns and experiences in each urban realm.
The document summarizes three reaction papers written by Tan Yincy on theories of architecture and urbanism. The first paper discusses Louis Wirth's 1938 work "Urbanism as a Way of Life" and his view that urbanism is characterized by population size, density, and social heterogeneity rather than just physical or economic factors. The second paper examines the book "Body, Memory, & Architecture" and how it depicts the formation of spaces and dwellings relating to the human body. The third paper analyzes Juhani Pallasmaa's work on how architecture can evoke memories and emotions through sensory experiences and a focus on human perception over visual or speed.
