In a group of 13, to undertake a research analysis process on Modern Malaysian architecture which we were given the area, Petaling Jaya to practices throughout history through literature review and document analysis and present an appropriate chronological account of the Malaysian architecture based on the understanding gained through the analysis procedure. In addition, for us to familiarise students with the activities of culmination and production of a research analysis through assemblage, chronological indices and evaluation of information; composing and organization of study; assembly of illustration and text; design layout composition; poster and presentation. Lastly, for us to introduce visual and critical thinking through learning from precedents with diagramming, and to introduce the basic principles of form, space and order in the architectural design of Modern Malaysian architecture.
Project 2: Detailed Report
In a group of 5, we will conduct research and architectural analysis on a selected building. Each group will select one building from the given list. The group may also choose their own modern buildings around the Klang Valley, subject to the agreement of the lecturer. Therefore, for my group, we choose to use our own modern building, Menara Mesianaga. This assignment required us to do a report which should be written documenting the findings of the analysis and we may support the information using photos, sketches and diagrams as evidence.
