Project 1 : Contextual Study Sketch Journal of a Traditional Street
In Project 1, sociocultural, economic, and political issues have an ongoing impact on how a place's identity is constructed. Urban growth can significantly alter the significance of traditional streets in a city like Kuala Lumpur that is rapidly becoming more globalized. The goal of the research is to examine and comprehend the "lexicons"—distinctive traits—of ancient streets, encompassing both their concrete architectural and spatial aspects and their intangible socio-cultural characteristics. The project's goals include showing an awareness of place settings and how they affect place identity and socio-cultural meanings, as well as talking about how architecture in Asia interacts with its social, cultural, and intellectual environment. In order to complete this project, we must physically visit a designated traditional street and note both its physical and non-physical characteristics contexts using specific criteria, and documenting observations in a manual sketch journal.
Project 2 : Poster and Seminar- Contemporary Issues in Asian Architecture.
1) Based on the street we saw in Project 1: Sustainable Heritage Tourism, we were instructed to divide into groups of seven and identify the primary problem.
2) Conduct a thorough literature review to pinpoint the key problem and study that will serve as our guide for conducting the investigation. Additionally, give the project a title that reflects the purpose and precise parameters of our investigation within the confines of the chosen research field: Tun H.S. Lee Boulevard
3) Based on your findings, produce an infographic poster.
4) Locate case studies in Asia, particularly a comparative case study, to bolster your argument.
5) Once all the research has been completed, create a video presentation that will
REFLECTION
This project and learning has helped me to understand how beautiful are the architecture of asian. Due to individual project, it let me explore the passage along KL especially on Jln. Tun H.S. Lee which was pretty adventurous while analysing the architecture also the weaknesses that we can improve in the future for project 2.
