My Highrise Proposal

For our final project this semester, we are needed to design a high density building-higrise in a metropolitan area.
My site is actually in wadihana context,(well,i'll explain the site later).
So, i was thinking in days of what should i proposed(again,we are free to propose any kind of highrise as long as u finish the drawings,haha)

My initial intention is to bring vibrant to wadihana..in order to be a vibrant place u need activities,purpose for people to come..so to have activities u need people. Yes,u do need people! People draw peoples!

Speaking of people,u'll have density..yes it is. So, i'm thinking that school, offices & residential consist of high density. Again, yes it is. And its just easy, out of the 3 proposal i choose residential. But it will be rather static..

I mean the people in my building are standardize..they buy an apartment or condo & they'll stay there. Basically, I like people to move in & out..today u have this group of people & tomorrow the other one..and so,i proposed to design a highrise service apartment:)


a short definition of service apartment

A serviced apartment is a rental facility, like a hotel, where you can stay for a few days or a few weeks depending on the nature and purpose of your visit. Serviced apartments can be less expensive than equivalent hotel rooms. Especially when staying for 7 days or more

Serviced apartments offer savings of up to 30% on traditional hotel accommodation. Since the beginning of the boom in cheap international travel and the corresponding increase in the level of sophistication of international travellers, interest in serviced apartments has risen at the expense of the use of hotels for short stays.

The benefits of serviced apartments are:
-More space & privacy
-Giving the feeling home away from home
-More freedom & convenient
