Abstract
Loo Jie Hsin’s proposal, subtitled a.morphous. Tuarine, is a bold unique structure to celebrate the natural relationship between the built form to house the proposed Marine + Estuarine Ecology Research Centre and the natural world along the land and water interface at the Kuantan River estuary near Tanjung Lumpur. She views the centre as an extension of the natural processes themselves. As a ‘breathing organism’ which responds and evolves in its changing living environment hence blurring the divide between building and its natural setting. She has achieved a successful solution although being challenged at several different scales and levels.
