Abstract

The project embellishes the environmental and spiritual character of the historical Pudu Prison, Kuala Lumpur. A new green living environment is introduced as a new landmark development in the heart of Kuala Lumpur. The work integrates green architecture in an urban infrastructure. A subtle blend of landscape and architecture creates a small green HEAVEN; a tropical green living environment. It purifies the historical prison hell spiritual values. A feeling of sensation and naturalness in this design is evoked by Strelitziareginae (bird of paradise), symbolizing the sympathy of a human soul. The overall development will evoke the human indulgence towards environmental sustainability.
