To Design a transit hub (RAILWAY TERMINAL) by integration a variety and high – density mix of land
use and recreation options within walking / cycling distance of each other and of MRTS station – in order
to induce a lifestyle, change towards healthier living and better quality of life.
OBJECTIVES:
SCOPE:
• Well planned transportation infrastructure – providing all passengers for safe deboarding &
deboarding locations, pedestrian friendly walkways & easily accessible parking lots.
• Mixed use development.
• Sustainability aspects – solar power generation usage, proper waste management system,
recycling & reuse of waste water , rain water harvesting collection etc.
PROJECT REQUIREMENTS:
• New railway terminal designed with 9 new lines & 5 platforms and with all the requirements
needed to design a terminal.
• Mall or shopping Centre -shops, food courts, bank, gym, day care, public amenities.
• Office.
• Hotel.
• Service apartments.
• Bikeshare rental system.
• Parking infrastructure.
• Recreational area.
• Multifunction public plaza.
LIMITATIONS:
CASE STUDY:
The aim of mixed-use development is to create vibrant, diverse, and sustainable urban environments by combining
different land uses within a single project or neighborhood. This approach contrasts with traditional zoning, which
often separates residential, commercial, and industrial areas. Mixed-use developments typically incorporate a
variety of uses such as residential, commercial, retail, office, and recreational spaces within a well-designed and
integrated framework.
NEED TO STUDY:
Increased property values: integrating commercial and residential spaces often leads to increased property values,
benefiting both developers and the local community. Diversified revenue streams: developers can benefit from
multiple revenue streams, including commercial leasing, residential rentals or sales, and potentially hotel
accommodations.
SCOPE:
The scope of a mixed-use commercial tower requires collaboration among developers, urban planners, architects,
community members, and other stakeholders. It's essential to conduct thorough market research, consider the
unique characteristics of the location, and prioritize sustainable and inclusive design principles to maximize the
positive impact of the development on the community and the urban environment.
LIMITATION:
• Challenges in design integration:
• Integrating diverse functions such as residential, commercial, and recreational spaces requires careful
planning to ensure a cohesive and functional design.
• Zoning and regulatory challenges:
• Navigating complex zoning regulations and building codes to accommodate mixed-use developments can
be challenging.
METHODOLOGY:
• Selection of topics
• Collection of data
• Literature study and live case study
• Comparative study
• Site analysis
• Site zoning
• Concept
• Design proces
CASE STUDY:
Site location: Jakarta, Indonesia.

SLUM REDEVELOPEMENT
( CONTAINER APARTEMENT )
AIM:
The aims of container apartments can vary based on the specific context and goals of the project. However, several
common objectives are often associated with the development and implementation of container apartments.
NEED TO STUDY:
Studying container apartments involves exploring various aspects of their design, construction, benefits,
challenges, and potential applications.
• Design Principles
• Construction Process
• Sustainability Aspects
• Cost Considerations
• Regulatory Compliance
• Case Studies
• Social Impacts
SCOPE:
The scope of container apartments encompasses various dimensions, ranging from architecture and
construction to sustainability, affordability, and community development.
• Architectural Innovation
• Sustainable Construction
• Affordable Housing Solutions
• Urban and Rural Applications
• Community Development
ADVANTAGES:
• Cost-Effective: Shipping containers are relatively inexpensive compared to traditional building
materials, and repurposing them can be more cost-effective.
• Speed of Construction: Constructing a building using shipping containers can be faster than traditional
construction methods, as the basic structure is already in place.
• Modularity: Containers can be easily stacked and arranged in various configurations, allowing for
modular and scalable designs.
• Sustainability: Repurposing shipping containers for housing is a form of recycling, making use of
materials that might otherwise go to waste.
• Portability: Container apartments can be easily transported to different locations, providing flexibility
for temporary or mobile housing solutions.
LIMITATION:
While container apartments offer various benefits and innovative solutions, they also come with limitations and
challenges. Understanding these limitations is crucial for anyone considering or studying container housing. Some
of the key limitations include
• Insulation Challenges
• Space Limitations
• Ventilation Issues
• Building Code Compliance
• Modification Costs
CASE STUDY:
HOTEL YENAGOA
Yenagoa, Nigeria
4 storys of prefabricated hotel rooms are placed, divided into two wings.
• 36 suite rooms - non-standard units of 516 sq ft (48 sq m.) specially designed for the project.
• Each room finished to a high standard, with individual air conditioning and furniture suited to a luxury room.
"King" model rooms consists of two 45 ft long (13,5m) units - shipped separately and connected on the construction
site. • Square room measuring 18 ft (5,5m) by 15 ft (4,5m).
• Each room with individual temperature control - AC unit located above the entrance
