As part of the orientation activities for the new students of the Faculty of Design and Built Environment for the February 2022 intake, a warm-up project in the form of a competition was held from 8 to 10 February 2022.<\/p>\n

The 9BU Roundabout Competition was held as a companion competition to the main competition organised by Bandar Utama City Centre Sdn. Bhd. (BUCC). The competition organised by BUCC invites the public to showcase their ideas to design a roundabout leading to the 9BU and 8BU Condominiums. Entries for the competition should reflect the theme, Green and Environmentally Friendly and should reflect Country Club Living within a Golf Resort in the midst of a thriving Urban Township.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

The Faculty of Design and Built Environment adopted the concept, theme and criteria of the BUCC Competition for their companion competition. The participants for the competition consisted of 130 current and new students from various design specialisations, namely interior architecture and design, furniture and product design as well as graphic design.<\/p>\n

Under the guidance of tutors consisting of FDBE\u2019s programme coordinators and academic staff members, students were divided into 10 teams led by a team leader. They were required to produce presentation proposals in groups and initial ideas which could lead to the final design proposal individually. The ideas and concepts for the design of the roundabout should reflect the site and community. They also had to fulfil the criteria of the competition by emphasising the green landscape and nature, sustainable and practical material application and low maintenance and carbon footprint.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
