Design Studio 5 Project 1 Preliminary Studies

Learning Outcomes
1. Conduct case studies and site analysis to generate an understanding of the physical and cultural context and development of urban environment
2. Determine and describe the role of a market-place in a contemporary urban setting
3. Examine and establish appropriate architectural responses and strategies for designing within an urban infill site
4. Produce necessary documentation (diagrams, mappings, photographic images, orthographic drawings and models) to record and communicate site analysis findings, and for further use in the coming design stages 

After visited Jalan Tun HS Lee, Kuala Lumpur, a site analysis is produced in a group of 7. We observed the pedestrian and traffic movements during morning, afternoon and night, to determine the peak hour of the street. The five elements (nodes, paths, edge, districts and landmarks) are also important to include into the site analysis for further understanding of the street.















A site model is also made to have a 3D vision of the whole site.
