UDRL [ urban design research lab ]

Collaboration with Wan Norafizul Ahmad : this master plan was designed based on the study of Kampung Pondo(Sabah) surrounding environment such as coral topography and current connection between each house and also the study of the density of the place. As the main intention is to upgrade their living style and appreciate the informal arrangement of their own house but still in group or cluster system.It can give benefit to the village and its society in making it a self-sufficient community. Most of the programmes injections will innovate the potentiality of Pondo’s villagers knowledge, ability and capability especially in fishing and small farming. Although the scheme is different with the present housing layout, the idea is basicly derived from its setting. So, the new development still consider the context from surrounding environment.
