The community-based services in CSI module for SABD are to expose students to the real community living in the real-life situation. We are to cooperate as a group for structural, culture, and environmental improving activities in the communities of various of different socio-economic status and social groups. The series of community services are offered as student strengthening project, we are given the flexibility to pick and to execute the task in the most ideal way, within the budget and time limitation given. As architecture student, we were then required to propose and execute design answers to handle the analyzed issues.
PROJECT 1 :
RE-Play – Children’s Outdoor Playscape
Initiating the exploration of ‘Leisure and Architecture’ Project 1 deals with the basic action of ‘play’ and leisure at the smallest scale through the understanding of repurposed materials and their relationship to the crafting of spaces for children experience. Students will be required to design RE-PLAY – CHILDREN’S OUTDOOR PLAYSCAPE, which is intended to showcase specific material(s) for a proposed set of activities. It is to develop awareness of environmental sustainability through the responsible and innovative use of reclaimable and repurposed materials in relation to user needs. The exploration of ‘play’ in this project will relate to the programmatic requirements in Project 2.

PROJECT 2 :
HOUSE OF LEISURE – Community Recreation Centre
Furthering the exploration of ‘Leisure and Architecture’, the project calls for the design of a HOUSE OF LEISURE – COMMUNITY RECREATION CENTER within an urban park environment. Students are required to provide full design proposals incorporating findings from precedent study and site analysis. Students will generate concepts that respond to context and leisure-related programs and explore design solutions that reduce environmental impact utilizing clustered spatial typology and passive design strategies. The design should contribute to and merge harmoniously with the context and provide interesting spatial experience for the users through sensitive and thoughtful architectural intervention.
