Kenny Heights
This is a parcel within a masterplan, located in Kuala Lumpur. Kenny Heights is carved out of the land, and the retail link here is remarkably a simple envelope, with a small incision on the roof, to let daylight in deeper into the plan of this development. Arguably very different from anything else seen for a retail project, this link will prove to be very edgy and yet accessible for this new suburbia community.19:40 Posted in architecture , Blog , Conceptual Projects , Offices , residential , retail design | Permalink | Comments (0) | Email this | Tags: kenny heights, parcel 4, masterplan, retail planning

Elevated Deck
By introducing an elevated deck on L6, the twin 32-strorey Residential towers can enjoy long views into the city and across to the nearby Saigon River. Located in the busy vicinity of the new town centre, this development should give Vietnam's Retail a new dimension, a forested theme has been created by ZLG's Huat LIM and Singapore's Jane LOW of Surbana International Consultants in the space of 2 months.
Central Courtyards have skylights that bring in daylight and provide mechanical ventilation to car park below grade. Existing pedestrian networks has been preserved to connect all the three sides of this vast development. Precious views across the site has been kept and has been a priority fro the first instance, and this has given this development a visual transparency in the overall built form. On the upper levels of the towers, many landscaped terraces have been created to bring the entire forest theme together.

Compression Saigon
Saigon Pearl's three towers compress open space, so smaller elements within this will appear as punctuations and fragments of the architecture of the forest. Unlike urban rooms that are out of contact with nature, here we propose that trees and glass interlock each other and instill awareness of the natural beauty of forest set within the context of a city plan. Lanterns and totems appearing as sculptures are actually ventilation towers emanating from lower ground car parks.02:45 Posted in architecture | Permalink | Comments (0) | Email this | Tags: Architecture

Forest Mall
Saigon Pearl Project view from above the plaza shows integration of three towers. Residential apartments connect on level 5, with sky lounges looking into the tree tops of this unusual central courtyard. We beleive a forest theme or concept for retail environment will ad a special twist to the programme and return pedestrian experience to something often missed in urban communities. True to the concept of providing a green lung of sorts, small maybe, this project should attract immediate neighbourhoods to open space and add useful density required for commercial development of this scale.
Link bridges are possible on upper levels, however we see this as a future second-tier addition not critical to the functionality of the current plan. This feature however will create upper level circulation which will bring a new perspective to enjoyment of above-ground landscaped courts and inter-tower ramps.
