THE DISCOVERY CENTER
KAMPUNG MORTEN, MALACCA
Architectural Design lll
The objectives of this project:​
-
To provide a physical point of reference that keeps the culture/ history/ memory/ essence of the place alive
-
To house and display relevant informative material for visitors to understand and appreciate
-
To provide areas/spaces to conduct any kind of engaging program related to Kampung the exhibition.
Task
In Project 2b, we were required to design an interpretive centre emphasising a strong engagement and relationship to the site, spatial experiences and programmatic requirements, continuing my design concept from Project 2A.
PROGRESS OUTCOME
Site Visit & Researches
We are expected to carry out in-depth study and look for ideas from numerous web resources. Precedent studies are a popular strategy that entail looking over and evaluating previous designs to learn about their tactics, material selections, and building techniques. We can pick up established design principles from successful precedents and apply them to our own projects.
Design Draft
After the research phase, I create different designs and approaches through an exploratory process. I create a creative atmosphere by letting ideas run freely during this brainstorming session. Then, during the design phase, I take the best aspects of each concept and work on its shortcomings, making adjustments and improvements to produce the finished design. Through this iterative process, any potential flaws in the design are addressed and the design maximises its positive aspects.
Final Model
Prior to starting to build the finished model. By using this method, the possibility of misunderstandings between the final model and the drawings is reduced. I can move forward with more assurance if the drawings faithfully capture the intended design because I know that the finished model will closely resemble the original idea. Throughout the design and construction phases, the clarity and consistency of the drawings are preserved thanks to the meticulous attention to detail.

TAYLOR’S GRADUATE CAPABILITIES
In this assignment, I've finished the first two group projects and am now working on the final project, which is an individual assignment. I've learned from my past experiences how important it is to manage my time well and find a balance between my personal and academic obligations. Taking part in these projects has shown to be a priceless learning experience that has helped me hone my abilities and broaden my knowledge. I have learned a great deal by conducting in-depth research on materiality and stability, using online resources, and speaking with my tutors. This newfound knowledge has been extremely helpful to my personal development as a student and has opened the door to further advancement in my academic endeavours.
​
These factors have inspired me to create details and solutions that not only solve these problems but also turn them into unique, eye-catching aspects of my structure.I've been able to control myself and finish my homework on schedule. After each tutorial session, I took some time to evaluate my work and made a concerted effort to enhance my design in order to produce a more pleasing result.
