MalayTraditional Malay architecture employs sophisticated architectural processes ideally suited to tropical conditions such as structures built on stilts, which allow cross-ventilating breeze beneath the dwelling to cool the house whilst mitigating the effects of the occasional flood. High-pitched roofs and large windows not only allow cross-ventilation but are also carved with intricate organic designs. 

Chinese

In Malaysia, Chinese architecture is of two broad types: traditional and Baba-Nyonya. Examples of traditional architecture include Chinese temples found throughout the country such as the Cheng Hoon Teng that dates back to 1646

Space planning is a fundamental element of the interior design process. It starts with an in-depth analysis of how the space is to be used. The designer then draws up a plan that defines the zones of the space and the activities that will take place in those zones. The space plan will also define the circulation patterns that show how people will move through the space.  The plan is finished by adding details of all the furniture, equipment and hardware placement

Weather boarding 

Weather boarding is a form of external cladding. Traditionally, weatherboarding has been made from timber, although other materials have also become popular such as uPVC and fibre cement. There are numerous types of profile and finish available depending on aesthetic requirements. It is designed to be laid with an overlap, as opposed to flush cladding where boards are fitted together with no overlap.

Bamboo Woven panel

Bamboo Woven panel and veneer are ideal for any interior use where hardwood may traditionally be used, including cabinetry, reception areas, wall or ceiling treatments, Restaurant and more. The difference is in the beauty and depth the finished product will have compared to more conventional materials. Bamboo Panels are made from 3/4" strips of bamboo poles which are treated and dried to achieved a final moisture content of 6% then flattened them together to form paneling. Bamboo panels comes in classic colors with either a horizontal or vertical bamboo strips pattern that makes these

Decorative wood carving

This decorative wood carving features a few minimal simple swirls to create an elegant touch to home designs. Although not as fancy as our other ribbon and grape onlays, this item features just the added touch you need for your decorations. Use this onlay on walls, or added to furniture or other woodwork to get that little extra attention your home decor needs

Facade colours

Traditionally, many shophouses would have been plastered an off-white colour. Other popular early colours were indigo and ochre, given the range of available pigments. By the mid-20th century, pastel colours (rose pink, baby blue, light yellow, etc.) became popular, and they remain the colours that most people most strongly associate with these buildings. However, many contemporary or restored shophouses have now taken to using very bold colours, including deep reds, black, silver, gold, purple, etc.

The KLOM is oriented to the Mecca (Kiblah direction), which is the fundamental orientation of all the mosques in the world. The KLOM construction implemented post and beam system. All the beams are placed on the columns at 90° angle, and the rafters at angle from 30° at the lowest roof tier to 50° at the top roof tier. The main prayer hall has forty four columns to support the roof and the building structure. Two main spaces which attached to the main building structure which are the “Balai Lintang” and rear verandah has seventeen columns, and the “Wakaf Orang Kaya” space has eight columns. While the tower which has its own structure, has four columns.  The construction of KLOM is primarily supported by four big inner columns which functioned as the core structure to support the roof and building structures. These timber columns are called “tiang seri” by the local people.
