SWT Blythe Student Prize
Award: The Bintulu Maritime Centre by James Wong Kung Ding
Final year design projects present to students an opportunity to propose their own project brief in order to develop design responses that will highlight their skills in design and communication. This also presents an opportunity to relate architecture to society in a meaningful and dynamic manner responding to specific and challenging circumstances.
It represents both the end and the beginning.
The Bintulu Maritime Centre by James Wong Kung Ding, is a project that explores the conflict between industrial expansion and traditional heritage in a fishing village in Sarawak Malaysia.
The design carefully constructs a strategy from an appreciation of vernacular offshore fishing structures and creates an architectural language that finds its form as a cultural building integrated within an existing riverside urban context.
The project is presented with a clarity of graphic material that balances text, drawing and image that lucidly conveys a sophisticated response to the complexity of the brief and its resolution as architecture.
It is a well deserving winner of the 2009 SWT Blythe Student Prize.
