From the archive, 2011: over the years we worked on a number of proposals for ‘rumah banjir’ or ‘flood housing’ for areas affected by flooding. They remain a temporary solution to the real problem which lies in the poor relationship between geography, land development and drainage. The issue is now further exacerbated by climate change and all that it entails such as rising sea levels and destructive storms. - - #climatechange #risingsealevels #floodrisk #floodhousing #flooddesign #designforflood #sinkingcity #climateaction #globalwarming #floodriskhousing #masshousing #housingproblems #ruralhousing #rumahmalaysia #rumahbanjir

A colourful project post for the holiday season: this is our engineering laboratory completed in february 2019 - a fit-out exercise to create new laboratories for testing of engineering and construction materials, in which we explored the use of rubberwood typically used for furniture making. Here, we extended the use beyond small objects to the framing of walls and doors. - - Photo by @pixelawphotography #engineeringlaboratory #laboratorydesign #labdesign #tropicalarchitecture #interiordesign #rubberwood #interiorarchitecture #corridordesign #colourfularchitecture #colourinarchitecture #colourfularchitecture #makmalkerjarayamalaysia #interiors
