The document is about a coffee book project by Kelvin Ng on the culture of colonial era in Malaysia. The concept of the coffee book is about how Western and Eastern cultures fused during the colonial time, forming new cultures like the Straits Chinese. The theme is about the different window styles of shophouses from that era, which were influenced by various cultures. Kelvin researched 4 places around Kuala Lumpur - Jalan Tun HS Lee, Jalan Tun Tan Cheng Lock, Jalan Dang Wangi and Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman - and mapped the locations to document the window styles of the local shophouses for his coffee book project.

PARAPRHASING
The article discusses the "white cube" model of art gallery spaces that has been used since the modern era. It provides a sacred space that induces both cultural and economic value for the artworks exhibited inside by demarcating the internal space from the external. However, the white cube structure has problems with corners and ceilings interrupting the perfect white walls. Installation artists like Brian O'Doherty challenge this model by creating virtual spaces within galleries and using the space as the content rather than just the context. This reinterprets the relationship between inside and outside spaces and suggests new ways the conventional white cube could be redefined.

Asian Architecture Final Case Study Report
This document is a case study on the Glass Shed building at Sekeping Serendah Retreat in Malaysia. It discusses how the building achieves thermal comfort through passive ventilation design. Specifically, it examines the building's orientation, massing, fenestration, use of local materials like timber and bricks, and how it incorporates designs from traditional Malay houses. The Glass Shed is elevated above the ground for ventilation, uses louvre windows and casement windows for airflow control, and its orientation allows for cross ventilation from the prevailing winds. Through these passive design strategies as well as its interpretation of vernacular architecture, the Glass Shed is able to provide thermal comfort while reducing energy usage.
The relationship of ventilation and thermal comfort
The document discusses the design approach of the Glass Shed in Sekeping Serendah to achieve thermal comfort through natural air ventilation. It explores how passive design and elements from vernacular Malay house designs, like cross ventilation and stack effect, promote air flow. Modern materials like steel, concrete and glass are used alongside traditional brick and timber to enhance ventilation while maintaining a cool interior temperature. The orientation and various window types of the Glass Shed allow ventilation to work effectively.
AA Topic Proposal
1) The student proposes researching how the glass shed building in Sekeping Serendah maximizes natural ventilation through its design. Specifically, the student will examine how the building's openness concept, orientation, leveling, and use of local materials affect air flow.
2) The glass shed was designed without air conditioning, so natural ventilation is key. Its open layout and orientation in different densities of vegetation maximize air flow.
3) The building is leveled in response to the terrain to allow wind to pass through with fewer obstacles, maintaining speed. Local materials like timber are used, reflecting traditional Malay house designs that enhance ventilation in hot, humid climates.

Bujang Valley Site Analysis
Lembah Bujang was an important historical site in Malaysia from the 3rd to 12th centuries AD that served as an entrepôt for iron smelting, trading, and the propagation of Hinduism and Buddhism. It was influenced by Hindu culture as seen in early Malay literature, vocabulary, and religious concepts adapted from Sanskrit. The Lembah Bujang Museum was built at the site on Bukit Batu Pahat to carry out archaeological research and exhibit pre-Islamic artifacts, serving as evidence of Southeast Asia's earliest trade center. However, the site analysis found issues with its circulation, views, and average low visitor numbers.
Shelter for One
This document summarizes a student project to design and construct a skeletal shelter structure. It describes the design process including testing multiple prototypes to strengthen the design.

Environmental Sustainable Design Report
This document summarizes the design and construction of a portable food stall by a student group for a charity organization called Food Aid. The group's objectives were to create a foldable, sustainable food stall using renewable materials like wood and PVC pipes that could be easily transported and assembled on site. The final design consisted of PVC pipes for legs and a wooden base. It was lightweight, portable, and could be assembled in 1-2 minutes. The goal was to help Food Aid provide meals and seating areas in different locations while promoting environmental sustainability.
Low Jia Cheng Design Communication
This document contains notes from several design projects. It discusses learning how to visualize perspectives through drawing, learning to add shadow and hatching to sketches to beautify them, learning how to plot and design a comfortable house within limited space and enhance drawings with light weight, learning how to project designs so others can understand them, and learning how to project orthographic drawings into perspective views.
Low Jia Cheng Relationship between both cube
The document discusses two cube designs - a paper cube made of triangles and a wood cube made of cubes. Both cubes form spaces inside but are weakly supported. The designs were engineered to provide support, creating a strong, sustainable structure. A paper cube was designed to fit perfectly inside a wood cube box, combining the designs and forming another connected space.
Low Jia Cheng Wood Cube
The document describes a wood cube made of balsa wood. Balsa wood is soft, easily breaks, and is not flexible. However, by designing a cubic construction with the balsa wood arranged in different directions and angles, it provides strong support between the pieces of wood. This strengthens the weak wood and gives the new design characteristics of being fixed in shape, strong, and lighter than other woods. The soft, not flexible characteristics of the individual pieces of wood are overcome by supporting each other in the cubic construction.
Low Jia Cheng Paper Cube
The document describes a paper cube created from normal drawing paper. The paper is soft, flexible, and thin, making it weak on its own. However, by cutting the paper into strips and joining three strips to form strong equilateral triangles, then combining the triangles into a cube shape, the normally weak paper takes on new characteristics. Specifically, the thin paper becomes elastic and strong through the bonding of the triangles. The cube is named Trigo-Crown due to its crown-like shape formed by the equilateral triangles.

Coffee Book Album Report
- 1. Coffee Book Album Culture and Civilization Kelvin Ng 0315081 FNBE0413
- 2. Content Concept and Theme Research of Places Mapping of Places Draft Image Compilation of Tutorial Updates Mock Up Print
- 3. Concept and Theme The concept of my coffee book is about the culture of Colonial Era. During that time, culture of Western and Eastern fuse together forming a marvelous culture that only appear in South East Asia especially in Malaysia. One of the culture formed during that time is Strait Chinese which Chinese that trade at Malacca married local woman and form new family. The theme of my coffee book is about the window of shophouses that was build during the colonial era. Window is very important as it ventilate air into the house. Anyhow, there are different types of window used as the influence of the culture is different.
- 4. Research of Places Malaysia shophouses history are quite complicated but the most of them are build during the colonial era and influence by the craftsman from Guang Zao, China but then influence by British from India to China. The architecture style is combination of Chinese roof, corridor of India style and classical motif. For example normally the window of shophouses have classical moulding with Indian glass but sometime Indian, Chinese and Malay Carving is used to decorate the window. The 4 places I choose is all around Kuala Lumpur as I having problem traveling around my country. The places I choose mostly are around the Petaling Street, this kind of places are usually the city Centre where trades and business are running among them. The four places I went is Jalan Tun HS Lee, Jalan Tun Tan Cheng Lock, Jalan Dang Wangi and Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman (Chow Kit).
