Through this project, I’ve learnt to be critically analyzing the given site, which is Kampong Baru. I have also learnt to use appropriate materials and methods of research in the process of observing the Greater KL.  

Conclusion

Product

Your task is to observe the city and her people and document your findings in any format as you wish.

 - 1 Identify in what tools/perspective/lense did Calvino uses to identify the city characteristics
 - 2 Identify an area within KL or Greater KL (a bird-eye view image is required)
 - 3 Apply Calvino’s tools/perspective/lense in a one-day observation of your area: specifically to the type of users/background demographics.
 - 4 Record and document your observation.
 - 5 Highlight main physical character of the city (i.e. architecture language, planning pattern, landmarks,etc.)
 - 6 Select three strong image of the site to describe your findings

Tasks

The purpose of this exercise is to have a deeper understanding of the city in which we inhabit but do not necessarily seek to understand, Kampong Baru, KL, and the greater surrounndings but that of an objective standpoint in comparison to personal subjectivity.
