This project is driven by Architectural Design Studio 4 as an approach to support student's design through extensive research within the framework of Contextual Architecture in Asia.
Objectives of Project:
- To integrate architectural design and research through a specific case study, supporting student's design through extensive research within the framework of Contextual Architecture in Asia.
- To introduce students to activities which culminate in the production of the study; collection; indexing and evaluation of information; analysis of information; compilation and organization of study; writing of study; assembly of illustration and text; design of layout; binding and presentation.
Learning Outcomes
- Analyse and discuss in depth on the selected research area based on the selected building, within the framework of contextual architecture.
- identify significant elements of Contextual Architecture through investigation on the selected building.
- Produce, orally and in writing, a critical interpretation of Contextual Architecture of the selected building.
- A paper (2000 words, double spaced)
- A power point presentation 10minutes which contains an outline of the paper covering key issues and themes explored as well as bibliography.

Reflection
In this project, I had chosen thermal comfort as my main direction of research is because that i think that achieving thermal comfort in our country is very important due to our hot and humid climate, which I think that will be very useful for my future studies and work. I found that Architecture's potential is unlimited but even though as technology blooms, we shall not neglect what people in the past has done and left for us. Their numerous explorations and findings became the foundation of us at nowadays to go further with lesser obstacles.
The ways that Architect Choo Gim Wah has truly inspired me in my future designs in terms of thermal studies, which I think that is very useful and made my design a more complete and functional design.
More than that, Ive learnt not only all these knowledge but skill and technique in report writing and presentation boards designing, which literally benefits me in my future study in every aspect.
