In order to ignite Lake Kenyir, Malaysia as an attractive tourist
destination, the project introduces a sports and recreation center to
the site and its surroundings. Utilizing a program that has fully
permeated into the Malaysian culture, the sports and recreation center
provides the local demographic a venue to play their favorite sports in
and also offers a foreign audience a stadium that is able to host large
scale sporting events.
Architecturally, the building emerges from the landscape, with the
green roof seamlessly integrated into the hill. This bold and yet
unassuming gesture augments the landscape and creates a dynamic roof
that features a running track and observation areas. The project̢۪s
success lies in the fact that it serves an immediate solution for the
local demographic but also projects future usage and development,
thereby enabling Lake Kenyir to become a hot tourist destination.
