RAS102, PROJECT 3 “ ISOLATION CABIN ”

There are many terms used for ISOLATION during this pandemic time. The most frequent terms that are being confused are QUARANTINE and ISOLATION. 

In medical terms, QUARANTINE may refer to someone has been exposed to a medical issue and may be asked to self-quarantine by staying at home or a certain place under strict guidelines. ISOLATION is define as to individuals who may contract in any situation or exposure to certain issues such as disease and will be put into isolation either in a hospital or at home. This will prevent others from getting sick or in touch with you. 

In this project brief however, the ISOLATION CABIN is meant for individual to self-isolate in a cabin preventing others from getting in touch with you. According to Cambridge Dictionary (2020) and Merriam Webster (2020); ISOLATION can be defined as condition of being alone. In addition it is also a condition of being apart from all human beings or of being cut off by wish or circumstances from one's usual associates.



3A SITE SYNTHESIS & PRECEDENT STUDY












3B PROJECT OBJECTIVES: 
  • To expose the students with the challenges of designing a comprehensive structure and multiple space and functionality. 
  • To enhance the student’s ability in designing a creative space with a total understanding of human physiology, ergonomic (including disable needs) and comfort factors based on technical knowledge. 
  • Mastering and increasing the techniques and skills of manual drafting drawing and design idea communication through a set of presentation drawings.

3B DESIGN REQUIREMENTS:

The student is required to design a SINGLE STOREY small liveable ISOLATION CABIN that caters (private place/private retreat/ workroom/ any activity within the compound) during isolation period.

The proposed design should accommodate 1 (ONE) person and need to include bathroom, small pantry, sleeping area, workstation, living area, and open deck. The student is allowed to include any other facilities and amenities that deems appropriate and necessary as long as it’s within the site area. 

  • Proposed built-up area is not MORE THAN 40M2 (INCLUDES OPEN DECK) 
  • Dimensions (Length and width) of the building: Free to propose. 
  • Dimension (Height): LIMITED TO 7.5 METERS (from ground floor level to roof edge) 
  • The proposed design should consider PASSIVE DESIGN STRATEGIES obtained from the SITE SYNTHESIS. 
  • The proposed design MUST CONSIDER ALL ELEMENTS IN THE SITE ANALYSIS. 
  • Disable Design Requirements are OPTIONAL.

RAS203 Project 2 : The New CO-OP Kindergarten

Assalammualaikum, my name is Muhammad Nuqman Hakim Bin Nasharuddin. For this posting, I'm going to tell and show the journey of our Project 2 which is The New CO-OP Kindergarten.  We are required to design a kindergarten at Polytechnic Port Dickson for our client which is Polytechnic Port Dickson CO-OP. I hope you guys enjoy and steep into this posting as I am.  Introduction Kindergarten is such a crucial time for young children between age 4 to 6 years old to develop cognitive, social, self-help, and literary skills. This is known as the sensitive window opportunity where children learn skills/knowledge at their best.  Maria Montessori (1870-1952), a famous Italian doctor well-known for her teaching philosophies and principles in education for the young, believed that children were not blank slates, but that they each had inherent individual gifts. It was a teacher's job to help children find these gifts, rather than dictating what a child should know. She emphasized ind...

RAS102, PROJECT 2 “ Back to the Original ” Food and Space Kiosk

Port Dickson/Lukut offers some unique style of architecture. These heritage areas have been a melting pot of different people, cultures, races and religions. The uniqueness of these cities need to be observed and appreciated. Street eatery and food stalls are considered as a part of the traditions in Malaysia over all and more specific in George Town/Port Dickson.  Ergonomics and anthropometrics are the highly technical methodologies which lie behind what we strive to achieve – creating living and working spaces which fit the needs of their inhabitants. There’s science as well as art in architecture. Ergonomics is a scientific discipline which studies human abilities and limitations and applies this learning to improve people’s interaction with products and environments. We’ve all heard about ergonomics in relation to office furniture and other (allegedly) posture-improving accessories, but the science equally applies to building’s design. If a workplace isn’t well-des...
