Extra Work - Arkitrek, Poring project

This is a quick conceptual render for a firm called Arkitrek in Sabah for a project in Poring. The project is all about local vernacular, local materials and buildability. This is a design I came up with for their Basha design. Its exaggerated roof is set to work as a wind scoop and guides rain into water tanks. It is made up of timber and bamboo, utilising materials that can be found around them. The roof is also 'patternised' to create that uniqueness, a focal feature for the Basha.

Render Perspective Study

These are a few quick render perspective of my new building design. I did multiple renders just to look at how the space would look and feel so adjustments to the design can be done. I wont be showing the work that led to this form, but this form is developed through the understanding of function of the building. Materiality at the moment is not important, because it is understanbly going to be timber throughout.

Sketch 2.0 - Design Development

Sketch 1.9 - Design Development

Over the pass few weeks, my design has change drastically, looking at function as a design drive instead of using form as the main inspiration. As there are many development design sketch to show, Ill only post a few seletced works. These are some initial sketches when I started to take another route to design. Unfortunately it is abit blur then I expected.
