A NOSEDIVE INTO BERTAPAK BUANA
The Kulliyyah of Architecture and Environmental Design (KAED), IIUM was given a stretch of land within the campus to develop the Malay Enclave Project. The Malay Enclave Project was initiated in 2017 through the preservation and relocation of the 111 years old Rumah Kutai from the state of Perak as a move towards preserving the Malay heritage and architecture as part of the UNESCO Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) initiative. “Reminiscing the Tradition†is the overall project concept to recall thecontinuity of Malay culture-their customs and institutions as well as their social attitudes. Under the Malay Enclave Project, a multidisciplinary KAED student group from the three disciplines-Architecture, Interior Design and Quantity Surveyor; were given the task to design IIUM Cultural and Natural Heritage Living Centre. The site was divided into four different plots. Each team were required to produce a strong concept and work together to create a masterplan of IIUM Cultural and Natural Heritage Living Centre. The team is also required to design five gazebos in the masterplan that reflect the Bugis culture. Bugis is one of the Malay Nusantara culture found in Gombak. The Gazebo is to be designed to budget.

MALAY INFLUENCED BENCHES DESIGN
Outdoor benches are one of the important elements in landscape design especially at heritage sites. The design of these benches will add to the overall identity of the whole development. The purpose of this research and design is to propose an outdoor bench design that will compliment the concept of Kulliyyah of Architecture and Environmental Design (KAED) Malay Heritage Living Lab at International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM), Gombak Campus. The objective of this design is to innovate the outdoor bench design so as to incorporate the value of Malay traditional elements. For this purpose, Malay traditional design elements taken from five states in Malaysia served as the main inspiration. These states are Perak, Melaka, Terengganu, Kedah and Kelantan. As the Malay motifs in the traditional design were derived from nature, they give a strong connection between the park and its immediate site. Other important elements in designing the furniture such as ergonomics, safety and material ere taken into considerations. The outcome of this research and design exploration of Malay traditional elements from different states inMalaysia, is the discovery of a new concept of outdoor bench for heritage sites.
