A Responsive City is the next generation in urban development after the Smart City. Cities become first smart and then responsive: dynamic behaviour differentiates the Responsive City from the Smart City ♀️ Smart Cities are technology-driven and produce large amounts of data. Smart Cities and Smart Buildings are in an early stage of development, as every building and every city is a prototype. The Responsive City builds on Smart City technology, but places the human in the centre of decision-making, design, and management of the city It uses the stocks and flows of information as the main driver of change. Data for the Responsive City come from smart buildings, smart infrastructure, and most important, from its citizens.
To deepen the knowledge about Responsive Cities, we define the concept of Citizen Design Science, a combination of Citizen Science and Urban Design Both are conducted, in whole or in part, by citizens or non-professional scientists. This approach is still in an early stage of development and, with the Responsive Cities research, we aim to explore its potential together with participants around the world.

This competition entry intervenes the basic
use of a railway station with environmental
function it could have supported. Our strategy
is to address energy, waste, balanced life
habitat, and environmental education issues,
and apply it in response to local contexts of
railway stations in Universitas Indonesia. The
result serves as a model for railway stations
throughout Jakarta where it will contribute to
the environmental balance of the city for the
welfare of its inhabitants.

The tactics are twofold: materiality and environment. Both are
responding directly to its local values, problems, and potentials,
resulting in new stations that interact to its surroundings.
Moreover, this approach allows the design to be a model,
instead of a mere building, which will be applied to other
railway stations in Jakarta.

8. UI STUDENT HOUSINGUNIVERSITAS INDONESIA STUDENT HOUSING DESIGN COMPETITION, 2009
(team member: data gathering, site analysis, keyword mapping, concept design)
The brief is to create an exclusive, upper mid-class housing for students, teachers and
employees of Universitas Indonesia. Our aim is to integrate the housing to its environment,
instead of singling it out. The strategy is to dissolve the housing ground into its surrounding by
removing site barriers. At the same time, we try to blend the unit types, disregarding the
hierarchy of traditional multi-stories residential.

Our approach is to analyze the physical and
social aspects of the trigger. Univeristas
Indonesia is a campus complex built upon a
tropical forest, situated in an ever growing
satellite city. The site itself is right at the edge of
the campus, close to the city’s main road where
business is blooming. We aim to establish an
area that promotes social activity where
residents and its surroundings can interact.

12. MOULIN ROUGEARQUITECTUM AND MOULIN ROUGE DANCE SCHOOL DESIGN COMPETITION, 2009
(team member: data analysis, concept design, design developmen, pattern making)
The task is to design a dance school along with
a museum for visitors. Our strategy is to mimic
the experience of Moulin Rouge, which is
blatant voyeurism. This entry proposes to have
dance studios to be a part of the exhibition,
along with curated works and historic items.
The facade consists of materials with varying
transparency and translucency, allowing only
visitors inside to view the dance presentation.

The program is to integrate
training rooms as a part of the
exhibition. Our approach is to
convert all the reuired spaces into
blocks and arrange them to meet
out program. Early models above
shows that the museum and the
dance studios does not intersect
faces enough. The model below
shows how the museum wraps
around all other areas, thus
allowing visitors to continuously
go through the exhibition and
ends the journey at the open air
café. This scheme, while enables
the scenario, compromises the
dance studios as it leaves them in
odd shapes which is not desirable.

Having meet the optimal model, we explor our options in interfaces.
Clarity is preferred in museum-studio interfaces while distortion is
best for studio-outside interface. Just like Moulin Rouge shows itself,
the exhibition is only for those who visits.

15. Aside from integrating training
rooms and dance studios as a part
of the exhibition, audio visual,
interactive, and art exhibits are
also on display. Split leveling
between museum and training
rooms ensures visitors to have
many training rooms on display,
through clear interface, at once.
The facade utilises solid wall,
clear glass and translucent
surfaces accordingly.

The brief is to design a small, energy efficient
house in Jakarta using cement as its primary
material. Without any specific trigger, it is
necessary to create a scenario. The user will be

This entry looks for a traditional house shape
without being at all conventional. The spaces
inside are divided into private spaces, where
being enclosed is obligatory and gathering
spaces, where an open layout is preferable. The
enclosed spaces are devised into two blocks that
are set apart from each other, leaving an open,
flowing space for social activities.

19. This entry proposes an open layout where
some functions are merged together and
stacked upwards to occupy the least
footprint possible. Walls are utilised for
spaces that need privacy such as bedrooms
and bathrooms while the other are left
open, allowing the least obstruction for
cross ventilation. The staircase is contained
in a compact tube, similar to a high-rise
core. All main storage and cabinetry is
combined to a large cabinet that occupies
one side of the house.

20. UMATERAARCHITECTURE DESIGN PROJECT, 2014
This project entry is an upper mid-class shop houses in a piece of land in a lifestyle hub in the
Central Jakarta. The objective is to create a luxurious experience to its house inhabitants while
also providing a lucrative business setting. Our approach is by combining the soft qualities of
wood and greeneries with the hardcore austerity of concrete, glass and wall, set upon an
infrastructure that is both separating business owners and dwellers while also making each
part of the whole accessible.
21. The objective is to plan 8 units of
shop houses into a site of 1,500
sqm. These units will take up to
half of the footprint, while the
other half will be a common area
big enough to provide parking
space for every user. The master
plan also has to be comfortable
and habitable for residency.
The requirement for each unit is
a shop and a house, each can be
occupied by different tenants.
The shop has to adopt an open
plan shop so it can swiftly be
converted into an office. The
living space above the shop is
private, and should be able to
house extensive living needs.
22. The project starts off as a 3 storeys
residential area. The design allows
for 3 spacious bedroom, open spaces,
and a roof garden.
Later on, it requires additional retail
areas, while the original 3 storey
residential space needs to be packed
into two storey. The masterplan
follows this change and be more
public friendly.

the dwellers or its simplistic
infrastructure.
This long and narrow central deck
asks for a simple solution in form of a
straight lane with pockets of green
areas. Such design allows users to go
from one door to another without
maneuvering through swirls of
pathways. There is seating on each
pocket for anyone to rest on under
the generous canopy of Terminalia

building their confidence and lets others to learn. Durable materials and modular furniture
pieces enables multi-functionality for each rooms and spaces.
26. On the later stage of the project, we simplify the idea
and create a cohesive identity for the school. The
colour-coding differentiates each floor. Partitions
and ceilings are simplified to make it more
manageable and furniture pieces are broken down
into smaller modules to ensure versatility.
27. As the construction progresses,
we find several discrepancies
between the original plan and
the built structure. On-site
adjustments are inevitable.
Modifications on interior
structures, built-in furniture
pieces and loose furniture
modules are made without
altering the original idea of
colourful, engaging learning

to shine.

30. DON BONO BONOINTERIOR DESIGN PROJECT, 2015
The aim of this project is to carry the traditional
Italian restaurant look and feel into the modern day.
Located in the podium of an apartment complex in
the center of Jakarta, we are tasked to bring forth
such experience inside a 60 sqm floor space. The
result is an old school feel on a new school look.

provides the old school feel.
33. The brief is to this competition is to imagine how people will use mobile phone in the year 2020
design a device to reflect that. Mobile phone has diverged into a handset that is capable of
driving many multimedia functions along with its original telephony functions. There is a
phenomena where people carry more than one phone, with another digital assistant, a laptop,
and more. The approach is to extract this basic communication essence into a single device and
contain it into a modular device that is seperate to multimedia functions.

The device allows wireless and physical connection. Rectangular shape
allows easier insertion and the exposed pins is more desirable as it allows
connection without having to plug the device; it allows snap-to-use.

35. First and foremost, MEREDITH is a mere phone, an earphone. It is a wearable device that
accommodates basic telephony function and is voice controlled. On other cases, MEREDITH
also acts as a connectivity hub for your other devices and your environment. You can simply
leave it tucked in your pocket without having to worry about pairing it to your multimedia
apparatus. Or just plug it. MEREDITH is a model of how one can use a phone in the year 2020.

This print ad competition entry challenges
the approach of applying the theme, which
is elements. Instead of utilizing the theme to
the image, it instead re-imagine what the
elements would do to the print. It seeks how
all four elements mentioned in the trigger
(water, air, fire, earth) affects the media.
39. This project is for an architecture design firm. Preceding logo
has been criticized for being overly complicated and not easily
recognizable. The aim is to create a simpler and memorable logo
that communicates the company’s design approach which are
uncomplicated and versatile. The company also employs a
fresh identity system throughout its publications and other
paraphernalia.

40. WATERCOLOR TAROTILLUSTRATION PROJECT, 2014
The design based on Rider-Waite tarot deck, following much of its symbolism. The original deck
has an intricate design, with complex and specific placement of elements, where everything
has its place and its meaning. Most modern tarot card decks are based on Rider-Waite design
with contemporary twist, without disregarding the grand scheme of things.
41. The new deck only re-imagines the Major Arcana. While this design trims many miniscule
details, it retains all of the original’s grand theme. The inspiration of this new deck includes
East Asian and Southeast Asian culture and imagery. It also amplifies many aspects that are
apparent but was not explained in Rider-Waite deck, such as the similarities between The
Heirophant and The Devil, or how the couple from The Lovers are falling down in The Tower.
