WEEK 8

Week 7 feedbacks

- Connecting KL Sentral to Tasik Perdana as fire escape route- Literally connecting via bridges- How to integrate public space with museum? shade the plaza with architectural element? - Suggestion: provide shading structure more critical thought on how to use the connections

- Adjust scheme to the site- Fire escape route- National Museum role rather than National History Museum- Designing on smaller scale i.e.: plan, sections, the bits of other buildings- Ensure all connections are working
