Sungei Kadut ➞

Situated in Sungei Kadut International Furniture Park (IFP), SK18 is a proposed new furniture showroom with production facilities. The proposed new building is located along International Furniture Street with 3 of its sides facing the driveway, which is also a public promenade. Likelihood of having a new MRT station just across the junction, SK18 will be a prime location within the IFP in future. The concept for this new building was inspired by a series of overlapping organic planes. Wood, being the core material to manufacture furniture, will be used and be reflected on its external façade. A 9m high clear glass on the first storey will form a seamless transition between the exterior and interior spaces. Different types of furniture will be showcased on this level which will enhance and stimulate public movement along the promenade.

Colombo High Rise ➞

Proposed Colombo High Rise Study. The concept is derived from how the two tower elements are able to structurally intersect at the podium base for additional stability against seismic occurrence, while gradually tapering upwards to achieve the desired height.

The tower shape is that of intersecting 2 squares representing the Kanji character “八” – a concept of prosperity and growth as the base broadens gradually.
