PRIMER 2
SCARS IN THE GROUND
Primer 2 was the second project that i embarked on in the first year of Architecture. Primer 2 is mainly about designing a memorial for the war veterans. It was sited on an empty lord at the Former Ford Factory.
​
Emotions were extracted out based on the experience of a war veteran of World War II, Syibil Kathigasu. The main three emotions that i extracted out is entrapment, overwhelmed and hopeful.
​
The memorial is to create the opportunity for visitors to reconcile with the World War II and seek a resolution of letting go. This is through the journey of entrapment, overwhelmed and hope after their visit to the Former Ford Factory Museum.
​
The form of the memorial is based on the "no corner" concept. The distance of a circle from its center is always constant. As a result, Circular form was selected in order to show the idea of there is no place, no corner to hide personal emotion and problems and escape from facing them bravely.
