Introduction

The greatest architectural transformation followed Merdeka, or Independence in 1957. Kuala Lumpur and other parts of Malaysia was transformed from a colonial town into the new nation and Kuala Lumpur the new nations capital. Proud symbols of nationhood were expressed in new and daring forms. Innovative construction techniques and industrialized components changed the scale of commercial buildings and enabled the erection of the first prominent buildings and sky scrapers that shaped the nations architectural modern scene. According to Ar. Chan Seong Aun, president of Persatuan Akitek Malaysia (2013-2015), most Malaysian architecture of the modern movement are not documented thoroughly and have not made the list of heritage buildings. The Subang airport for example has been replaced by a non descript warehouse. It is therefore important that we properly record the heritage of Malaysian architecture before it is destroyed and lost forever.

This research project adopts document analysis methodology that involves documenting, analyzing, producing, and presenting orally a critical chronological interpretation of Modern Malaysian architectural history. This project emphasizes critical analysis of the post Merdeka/Independance of Malaysian architecture in the effort to understand the influences of post-modernism to architectural design and construction, building science and technology, and urban design. The project is to distinguish the way in which many diverse factors contribute to the development of Modern Malaysian architecture. The development of the project would involve active discussion, analysis interpretation and consultation with the tutor.

Objective

The objectives of this project are as follows: To allow students to undertake a research analysis process on Modern Malaysian architecture practices throughout history through literature review and document analysis and present an appropriate chronology account of the Malaysian architecture based on the understanding gained through the analysis procedure. To familiarize students to the activities of culmination and production of a research analysis through assemblage, chronologically indices and evaluation of information; composing and organization of study; assembly of illustration and text; design layout composition; poster and presentation.
