This document is a student's final project proposal for constructing a recreation area on campus. The student selected a 30m x 30m area near Uni Plaza Square for the project. Their concept is to turn the area into a Disneyland-themed mini park, including attractions like a carousel, small ferris wheel, and Mad Tea Party ride. Diagrams provide the proposed layout and sizes for each attraction. Research was required to plan the improvements properly while considering aspects like materials, heights, uses, and safety. The goal is to create a fun space for students to relax and reduce stress.

3. INTRODUCTION
In a group work of 2 students, we need 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. we would propose one
project that serves one of the following purposes.
1. Recreation area
2. Study Enhancement Area
3. Rest area
4. Food and beverage (dining area)
5. Commercial area (exclude food and beverage)
The type of area I get is Recreation area.
4. Recreation Area
DEFINITION:
A recreation area is a type of protected area designated in
some jurisdictions. In the United States, National Recreation
Areas are administered by several different agencies. They
typically do not meet the strict guidelines to become national
parks. In U.S. state park systems, recreation areas may also
fail to meet some criteria to be designated state parks, such as
having a large number of non-contiguous properties. Size is not
necessarily a defining criteria. However, recreation area is not
necessary a park or a garden. It could be shopping mall, beach,
as long as there is the place to let people to carry out
recreation activities.
Example of recreation area:
1.Golden Gate National Recreation Area (USA)
2.Gunung Keriang Recreational Park, Kedah
(MALAYSIA)
3.KLCC PARK (MALAYSIA)
5. Site Analysis
The place that I chose is the Uni Plaza Square.
There are few reasons that I chose this place.
1. It is a open area, which allow all the Taylors student to access the place, and
normally when Taylors held some event or activities, this is the place they will
use for.
2. It is located at the center of the University. Almost every Taylorians pass by
here when they are going lecture theater or commercial block.
3. It is beautiful! The pattern of the square pavement give the modern feeling to
this place, and I found no reason to not maximize the uses of this place.
To sum up all the factors, the major purpose I
choosing this place is because this is an open space
area, its allow people to connect, communicate, and
yet to enhance the connectivity among one another,
not only between Taylorian to Taylorian, and also
who were came to visit this university.
6. Concept
The concept that I will use to improve the Uni plaza
square is Disneyland theme park concept. It might
sound crazy but if you can imagine that your
childhood dream appeared in front of you when you
enter your college or university. This idea is come
from most of the personality that all Taylorian consist
of, which is crazy-passionate, it is a personality that
made up of crazy and passionate. So, in my
opinion Disneyland theme park concept is the best
concept to describe this personality. It is kind of
fantasy, perfect, and sort of childish (can be observe
form the Taylorian.)
7. Idea Suggestion
1. Carousel
-The reason I will add carousel to the current
site is because when you feel stressed, you can
take a ride and release your tension, and having
fun with your peers or friends. Other than that,
carousel will be another attraction in Taylors
university.
- size of the carousel.
8. 2. Small Ferris Wheel
Ferris wheel. By adding this to the plaza square,
We can enjoy the beauty of our campus with
another way. Imagine at night the view of
lakeside campus from Ferris wheel. How
fantasy is it.
- Size of the ferris wheel
- diameter 12m
- radius 6m
- 6 seats
9. 3. Mad Tea Party
The reason of adding this is also to release the stress
of the student. To let them have a feeling of throwing
up.
- Overall size, 10m of diameter (not each cup)
11. Reflection
Thought out this project, I found that its not
an easy way to plan, construct a new
building or improvement, and before u start
to construct something, research is a must.
From every aspect, material use, height of
building, uses of building, target client, and
so on.
