An environmental adaptive design of the eclectic set

Abstract

Malaysia, like many other developing countries where building conservation continues to be a recent trend, facing some challenges with their historical building. A place characteristic and identity influenced by its tangible and intangible aspects of cultural and heritage resources becomes vital. An adaptive environmental design of street furniture named The Eclectic Set for Tronoh Town was created to reinstate the early tin mining industrial history and its unique living environment. The innovation of this street furniture is based on the genius loci of Tronoh Town including its building characteristics, the community living culture, planting typology, and climatic factors.
