Window Facade
With the plans for the modular window facade is a nod to both the building's industrial past and the way it was made, as seen in its appearance. So, the 20-level building is made to look like an industrial product that can be easily put together from different prefabricated parts. This leads to a façade that is made up of 5 identical prefabricated facade elements that were put together quickly on the building site.

Structure & Construction Method
Hybrid System
To apply scalable design, needs to create a main structure that allows more flexibility in internal design development. By research the structural system was fixed using Insitu concrete, precast concrete, composite steel and concrete, and a structural steel frame comprised this hybrid assembly.

The way the environment was put together there suggests that it was done with care to create density. Malaysia's housing and population are becoming a problem that the government isn't ready for and hasn't dealt with well enough until now. Johor Bharu needs help right away because there aren't enough affordable places to live there. Architect as a professional solution to Malaysia's housing problem in line with the country's population and location? The east side of Johor Bharu has been chosen by the government for gentrification and urbanisation so that more single-family homes can be built there.
The primary objective of this design thesis is to improve the quality of life for residents of high-rise apartment complexes by identifying the most efficient Scalable Design method for a fast modernising society. Building larger flats in high-rise developments with the intention of enhancing the quality of life is therefore the goal. In order to encourage first-time homebuyers to consider vertical housing construction, we must increase its value. The goal is to include a modular wall system into the building's interior design that is adaptable to future construction and refurbishment needs.
