Project 2b The Discovery Center (Visitor Center for Jalan Terusan Utama Parit 4, Kampung Sg Hj Dorani)
Project 2B is a continuation from Project 2A and Project 1. Project 1 was aimed to introduce and explore the formal and poetic articulation of architecture in a site-less or hypothetical site condition. Project 2a was about the historical research and site analysis as a driver for architectural development for the Discovery Center. Finally, in Project 2b, the design brief calls for an architectural response to design A DISCOVERY CENTER (Visitor Center) emphasizing a strong engagement and relationship to the site, people, culture, history, spatial experiences, and programmatic requirements.

Design Process
REFLECTION
Through this project, I resolve basic building construction, materials, and environmental considerations, produce and justify a design of a small-scale community building within an open/suburban context, following analysis and exploration of the site, the user requirements, environmental sustainability, buildability, and spatial poetics. I also communicate design through effective visual and expressive verbal presentation to peer, tutors, and architects from the industry.
