Interim Crit 1

1. Loose building language – elements need to better clarify, and define skeleton, planes and volume.

2. Watch floor efficiency – limit circulations and maximise usable floor space.

3. Change retail to be more dynamic, currently too boxy.

4. Provide more evidence on study of site & adjacent urban space, building must communicate with existing structures well.

5. Consider projection against rain and shade.

6. Composition of spaces can be improved, avoid having awkward spaces.

7. Better justification for bridge, currently a weak excuse.

8. Look into more unique pedestrian bridge designs.

 

Interim Crit 2

1. Must further understand the logic of the project.

2. Tell a realistic story for this project.

3. Must be clear in intention on zoning of space. Why are the spaces separate?

4. How do people prefer their work environment?

5. Who exactly are the ones occupying the building, name a client (group/ organisation/ company/ etc.)?

6. How many are allowed to occupy the building? Must have estimated number of occupants.

7. Require conventional promoter for this project.

8. Tip given; Patrick Grove as main client. Catcha Group founder, he is a talent scout and investor. Large investor group as a possible client.

9. Consider building as a platform for discovering talent. Like TV show Shark Tank, where prototyping and innovations are showcased to investors.

10. Look into Rimbun Dahan as precedent.

11. Users don’t need to be permanent users. First enters building program to develop idea and showcase talents and skills, afterwards they leave to create bigger company opportunities.

​

Interim Crit 3

1. Floor area does not look efficient, provide calculations or schedule of accommodations as proof

2. Demographic studies seem too general, require more detail. Preferred data from MBPJ or government statistics

3. Form lacks thought in design, not eye-catching enough
