Design Studio 4 Project 1 Discovering the Enviroment and Social Needs

Learning Outcomes
1. Identify site condition, topography, vegetation and socio-cultural events
2. Identify environmental features that influence architectural design
3. Identify environmental and social needs of a site
4. Analyse environmental and social needs of a site 



In a group of 6, we visited the Orang Asli Museum and the Orang Asli village in Gombak. We interviewed few villagers to understand their needs and culture to inspired us for our new design. We analyse the site and socio-cultural events and record them in the board below.



We also have a proposal of our new design as a combination of traditional bazaar and modern market. This proposal combine the needs of the villages and also preserved their traditional culture and products to show and sell to the visitors. We have an idea of "City within a Village" to promote the culture of Orang Asli which correspond with the Museum beside it.



The video recorded the interviews and introduce the village of Orang Asli. It is a trailer of our upcoming individual final designs with our proposal.
