Large open area that possess natural ventilation, sun-
light, ease of acess as it is located in a central hub
merged between residential, commercial and indusrial
forms.Surrounded by different type of building styles and
materiality. Interaction wish drying and preserving
processes of sealife etc.
To be able to bring order to Kuala Spetang, thorough
breaching community gaps between building materials,
poetics, sovreignity and reinvigorate the older as well as
the younger generation. To attempt to cater to a different
aproach of people to building and building to people
concept, through familarity however tangibly differernt.
Clustered buildings that lead to negative views, the messy
circulation within the town itself. People are exhausted of absorbing
hence pollution within the town, chaotic town plannaing and material
usageon buildings, loss of sovreignity, no direct acess, way finder to
the siteother than the eagle building.
Seasonal flooding causing 50cm rise, use of patch work
material isnt durable in the long run, could be dangerous
to wards locals. Loss of sovreignnity within younger
populations, grey population present. leads to
decreased economic income inflow into the town.

Site Plan
SCALE 1 : 800
Massing Concepts were derived from
offsetting the surroudning site buildings.
Hierachy in volume caters to impor-
tance of space. With the largest volume
to the most important space.
Allocation of first floor space considera-
tions = views, optimum susent views,
and overlooking the hustle, creates a
sense of awe.
Acess Points districuted over 4 areas,
to avoid one way in one way out confu-
sion. Locals who are more familiar with
the place have their own access routes,-
so as to people who workin the offices,
hence a sperate building.
Defensive form feature in the foyer,
office, to cut off chaos and allow sereni-
ty, so as to the end of the library as
well.
Materiality in Kuala Sepetang is sho-
cased in 3 main materials concrete
wood and metal, each with its unique
persona. The use of conconcrete to
represent modernity and wood to repre-
sent the roots, creates a sense of equl-
librium, thus introducing something
familiar in terms of a building/space/in-
tention to the people and, for the
people to understand the building inten-
tion in an invigorating way.
