Ohv

The project is a three bedroom condo showflat. It is intended to showcase a dwelling for a family of four: a pair of young, working professionals and their two preschool children. Conceived during the time of Covid-19 when people started to stay at home for longer periods of time, the apartment was designed to help foster closer ties within the family while giving each person the space they need to work, play and grow as an individual. The unit was reconfigured from its original layout to include more open spaces for shared use to mitigate "cabin fever" from being home for prolonged periods.

Primary warehouse-style space in 70 percent of the bookstore is created to save money. In the other 30 percent of the area, the parametric plug-in grasshopper is used to generate countless variations of Chinese moon gates and western arches, combined into a space partition device to create a powerful space for accessibility, regularity, decoration logic, and visual impact.

Takeen

The design of Takeen is inspired by its natural bamboo surroundings. This design integrates plant morphology, particularly bamboo, with its functional requirements to create a sustainable, organic enclave for respite from the bustling city of Kuala Lumpur. The biomimetic design emerged from the mathematical interpretation of leaf and branching patterns found in plants. As the entrance, bar, and kitchen walls slowly bifurcate and converge, light cascades down its sinuous form, producing an experience of bamboos intrinsic nature that is unique to Takeen.
