PAM Kuching Bus Stop Competition 2021
PAM Kuching Bus Stop Competition 2021
RE : KBS (Kuching Bus Stop), where 'RE' means RE-invent, RE-shape, and RE-imagine the future bus stop. This project discussed how the daily experience of commuters can be enhanced by redesigning the bus stop as a portal with meaningful activities, joy, and daily needs. As the public bus is getting less attractive due to several factors, such as safety, reliability (punctuality), and services, RE-designing a bus stop that helps to improve customer satisfaction and accessible services is crucial to promote public bus as an attractive mode of transport. Thus, the idea of this project is to transform the conventional bus stop into a more welcoming environment providing the public with a well-considerate and more secure design where it encourages them to use public transport more often. To design a bus stop for the local community in Kuching, a city with rich ethnic culture and history, the proposal was designed in a way it resembles the traditional houses from the local villages. To show the local identity of the city, the decorative side panels and elevated stilts were implemented as part of the bus stop design. The entire bus stop was elevated to prevent rainwater and debris accumulate inside the shelter. Furthermore, as the bus stop needs to be future-proof to adapt to the rapid development world, modular systems designs were incorporated to allow the design to be portable. With this system, modular blocks can be easily manufactured, assembled, dismantle and reuse where they could be built in different site conditions and enhance the circular economy in terms of the construction. With all the design strategies, the proposed bus stop design act as the catalyst, enriching the experience in Kuching city to enhance the lifestyle of the commuters meanwhile promote Kuching as a sustainable city.

KLO+設計工作室由彭科能與李佳璇於2021年共同創立。在2020年他們獲得了英國朴茨茅斯大學的建築學碩士學位並在之後回到馬來西亞成立KLO+。KLO+是一家多元化的建築設計工作室;提供建築,室內,產品,平面等設計服務。
“KLO”則來自於不同方向/設計師的名字縮寫,“+”代表著工作室未來的發展與合作夥伴。希望能將擁有相同建築認同的人結合起來,共同展現精彩的作品。
关于公司的核心思想是希望透过有趣的灵魂与对未来空间的无限想象,设计出具有创造力,伸缩性及可能性的建筑与空间。

將工作室的感覺商標以抽象藝術的形態,給人耳目一新的形象,並透過將KLO以抽象隱蔽的方式給人帶來於商標。 'K'代表著【空間】(空白處),'L'代表詭異【力】及'O'則是將結合。希望通過我們共同的設計賦予對未來建築空間的新意義。
