Taman Tugu Greenovation Design Competition
http://www.ilamalaysia.org/greenovation
The Taman Tugu Negara Project is a multi-component not-for-profit corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiative led by Khazanah Nasional Berhad in collaboration with Dewan Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur (DBKL) with the support of various stakeholders. The 66-acre urban forest park will offer a fresh public green space for the Malaysian community – to use, to enjoy, to experience to own. The intent is for the Taman Tugu to be an urban forest for various communities. It will complement the beautifully manicured Taman Botani Perdana by allowing people from all walks of life an opportunity to experience a green space, which is more rustic, and forest like.
The park is envisaged to be a conservatory - preserving and protecting approximately 5,000 ethnic Malaysian rainforest trees, including endemic species. This will provide visitors with a chance to experience and enjoy our green heritage whilst learning about different flora and fauna species from the Malaysian rainforests. Located next to Tugu Negara, Taman Tugu comprises walking and running trails, children’s wet and dry play areas, Malaysian eateries, an events space and a learning and innovation centre. The park will be placed under a trust which has been set-up to own and manage this park as well as potentially other spaces in the future. The trust is entrusted with ensuring the Taman Tugu park is protected into perpetuity as a public green space and maintaining it which includes security of the site and her visitors.
We produced 8 A3 boards digitally for the competition and another 8 manually done boards together with 8 models (2 finals, 6 study models) for our submission.
