This research project adopt document analysis methodology that involves documenting, analysing, producing, and a critical chronological and diagrammatical interpretation of Modern Malaysian architectural history. This project emphasises critical analysis of the post Merdeka/ Independence 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.
This project is to distinguish the way in which many diverse factors contribute to the development of Modern Malaysian architecture. Therefore, this project also familiarise students with activities of culmination and production of a research analysis through assemblage, chronological indices and evaluation of information; to introduce visual and critical thinking through learning from precedents with diagramming, and to introduce the basic principles of form, space and order in the architectural design of Modern Malaysian architecture.
Throughout this assignment, I have learnt to analyse and discuss the relationship of the Modern Architecture of Malaysia with social, cultural, environmental and intellectual context of Malaysian architecture post Merdeka/ Independence. Then, I adapt the way to differentiate the way in which many varied factors contribute to development of Modern Malaysian Architecture.
