-BUILDING WITH DISTINCT FUNCTIONALITY AS A FOCAL POINT FOR AS SYMTRICAL RADIAL DEVEL-OPEMENT

-BUILDING SCATTERED AROUND FOCAL POINT WITH LONG DISTANCE IN BETWEEN EACH OTHER.

-CLUSTER OF RELATIVELY ORGANIZED PLANNING SIGNIFIY DEVELOPMENT IN GROUP WITH SHARED FUNCTIONALITY

PHASE 1

-URBAN SPRAWL ALONG THE MAIN AXIS IN ARRCODANCE TO THE NEED FOR TRANSPORTA-TION -CLUSTER NOT WITHIN WALK-ABILITY DISTANCE OF EACH OTHER

-MULTIPLE CLUSTERS WITH DE-FINED MONO-FUNCTIONALITY

PHASE 2

- URBAN PLANING OCCURS IN RELATION WITH OTHER CLUS-TERS

-CONNECTION OFSECONDARY PATHS INTO A COMPLETE SYSTEM AS A WHOLE

-EMERGENCE OF DENSER MIXED USE PLANNING IN SEPARATE CLUSTER THAT ONLY RESPOND TO THE OTHER CLUSTER, IGNOR-ING THE EXISTING CONTEXT

The form of D6 and D7 has promoted the communal space in within the buildings itself and has achieved the Library concept that wanted to introduced by the YTL developer. But this form has also signi�cantly disrupted the exisiting communal patterns as it has taken the use-able public spaces and chnged it into privatized public space. This only bene�ts the residents of the building but not the people around the buildings as they are not allowed to go in.

200m

400m

Walking distant to nearby amenities is within reach of200m.

MOVEMENT PATTERNSite is well connected by vehicular pattern

In term of the walking distant to ameni-ties, D6 and D7 has a good coverage of amenities at a short walking distant. This scenario favours the residents more than the existing communites. Further more, this will burden the exisitng communi-ties due to the alienated building in the context as well as the sentul was sepa-rated into Sentul East and Sentul West by the KTM railway, causing a distur-bance to exisitng movement patterns.

1MIXED USE

COMMUNITY

2

The open space swithin the street areclearly discontinued from the surrounding space which privatized it to the usage of the street residents only.The potential of open space was not utilized in the best possible sense.

The functionality of the selected streethas secluded itself from the surroundingcontext and essetially inhibit the interconnection between the space separated by the developed street.

2The transportation masterplan from the development has achieved partialsuccess in activation of Sentul city. However, it is still lacking in term of the intraconnection within the smaller districts.

URBAN REVIVAL

3FORM

Form and facade of new development does not integrate itself into the existing context, making it an awkward presence within its surrounding old shoplots and thus, conquering with a brute dictatorship.

ACTIVITIESOld shoplot are mono-functioned and they transform into mixed use buinding in new condstruction

Development of D6 and D7 were not bene�cial to the surrounding context as it was limited to the accessof its own users only. This has create a social exclusion of the locality and ultimately cause the locals to move out due to the continuous demolition of existing social space.

3MOVEMENT PATTERNPEDESTRIAN MOVEMENT

3VEHICULAR MOVEMENT

Construction of KTM station causes it to becomean edge that separates east and west sides of Sentulleading to urban decay as rate of development between these two areas are very di�erent.

CONCLUSION-Successful establishment of landmarks and public transportation that are however secluded and does not activate the existing context.

-Complete reformation is practiced in urban planning instead of adaptive redevelopment approach which posed high risk of devastation of current cultural and social heritage.

-Urban revival masterplan does not inform the existing community and urban design towards self revival but completely ignore the existing context which results in high number of neglected land in between the new development and existing community.
