3 INTRODUCTION For this assignment we are tasked to find a specific land within campus area to initiate a small construction project. The size of the land shall not be more than 30m x 30m. Therefore, our selected site is the balcony located at Level 7, Block E. Our purpose is to propose a new recreation area for the people of Taylors University Lakeside. According to Merriam-Webster Dictionary, recreation means refreshment of strength and spirits after work. The proposed area is supposed to serve as a refreshment and leisure area for students and staff after study and work hours. This new haven will include two main elements; the Passive Area and the Active Area. The Passive Area is an area where the recreation activities are more docile and relaxed. For example, this is where the open-air cinema is located. On the other hand, the Active Area is where more dynamic and energetic activities are held. For example, we have placed a mini golf course and etc.
4 SITE ANALYSIS (Original Area) The site analysis shows the wind orientation and entrance of the selected area. The wind direction is able to cool both the left and right sides of the proposed area. View of Balcony Area, Level 7, Block E
5 Users can also hear the sound of the wind breeze and distant car noises. Moreover, the selected site has a wide view of the significant lake, the Syopz Commercial Block, the staff parking lot and distant roads leading to Bandar Sunway. This site analysis shows the Sun orientation at the selected site. The solar panels installed at the shade is able to come in contact with the Sun. Therefore, solar energy can be efficiently harvested. Sun Orientation of Selected Site at 9 a.m., 12 p.m. and 3 p.m.
6 ZONING PLAN The area is divided into two main areas; the Active Area and the Passive Area. It is separated by the neutral area that connects to the entrance.
7 PROPOSED FLOOR PLAN OF SELECTED SITE
8 MAIN ELEMENTS (PASSIVE AREA) We have decided to include the passive area at the right side of the balcony. This is because the sunset can be viewed from that side of the balcony. The wind direction is also facing that side of the balcony. Therefore, users can experience both the sunset and cool breeze while enjoying the scenery of the lake and the distant landscape. While doing that, they can utilise the mats and carpets provided in the vases and have a picnic at the area. Users can also watch movies at that location. The maintenance staff will set up the projector and the screen starting from 8pm. The passive area will be sheltered by a laminated glass roof to avoid the area from getting wet by rain. Not only that, minimal sunlight will pass through the roof giving sufficient light and heat to the users at the area. Half the roof will be placed with solar panels to harvest solar energy. The solar energy harvested will then be used to power the fans with light in the area. Users will then able to have sufficient light and ventilation at night.
9 MAIN ELEMENTS (ACTIVE AREA) For the active area located at the left side of the balcony, we have included several dynamic activities for the users to release their stress after long hours of work/classes. For example, a mini golf course is placed near the balcony so users can experience the cooling breeze from that side of the balcony and also the view of the sports centre and the distant flyovers leading to Bandar Sunway. Near the wall, we have placed the darts and Nerf Gun range for users to release the stress. A notice will be placed encouraging the users to properly keep the equipment and items safe. Foosball and pool tables will also be placed at the area for users to have fun.
10 BENEFITS To begin, darts and Nerf Gun Range is a huge stress reliever! Simply by getting ones mind off of "work," one can immediately begin to relax and get a mental and physical "breather." Darts and Nerf Gun Range used in this application is nothing more than a diversion, where students can mentally take a break from being on studies and works ,or lecturer / employee of Taylors University Lakeside Campus on their job, whether one is physically at work or at home, and now even locating it at the campus itself ! People might actually skip going outside for a smoke to join in a game or two! Other than that ,by playing darts / Nerf Gun Range this type of accuracy and aiming game , it helps improves stress management, strategy thinking while playing the games to aim for the win , social skills while playing with different people in the campus and so on. On the other hand , playing mini golf have many beneficial points as well.The benefits are Hand-eye coordination is a skill that is improved when playing miniature golf. You have many opportunities to work on hand-eye coordination, which is a fine motor skill and works the central nervous system. As you play you work on precision and decreasing the amount of stokes you need to reach the hole. Here are some other ways to improve hand-eye coordination. Mini-Golf courses are created to continuously challenge each player. Every hole is designed with a different obstacle to encourage players to
11 find a creative way to get their ball in the hole. Most importantly , it is fun! While your playing mini golf you can talk to others and spend time. You can learn about each other and enjoy each other. Its great social time! Now moving on to the Passive Area where the mats , carpets and outdoor cinema (the projector) is located at ,the benefits of it would be it is more refreshing to watch movie is an open air. It is a great means of relaxing after a daylong work and studies in the campus for people in Taylor's. Not just that , a crowd can watch a movie without going to the theatre ,they can just stay in campus after class for movie. Last but not least , it is an opportunity for people to enjoy a good movie outside the artificial environment of the theatre, making the show to appear more natural and real since it is being displayed with a big screen.
