Allan’s Water Paddock STEEPER LANDSCAPE THE LAKE IS AN ENCLOSED CURVE

AN OPEN PIECE OF LAND WITH LITTLE CHANGING IN TOPOGRAPHY



PROCESS

1. TAKE PICTURE OF EVERY SECTION OF THE AREA

2. USE HUMAN AS RATION TO CALCULATE HEIGHT OF SLOPES

HEIGHT x RATIO = ACTUAL HEIGHT



Access & Circulation

• DURING RAINY DAYS, LAKE WATER LEVEL RISES• TOURISTS CANNOT PASS THROUGH• MANY CHANGES IN TOPOGRAPHY CAUSING IT TO BE HARD TO ACCESS



View/ vista

• SLOPE HAS DIFFERENT HEIGHTS WHICH GIVES DIFFERENT VIEWS WHEN TOURISTS STAND AT DIFFERENT AREAS



CONTOUR & TOPOGRRAPHY

Structure & Materiality

• Topography was changed due to the construction of roads and buildings


Vegetation

• The higher the slope, the taller the trees• The lower the slope, the shorter the trees

SWOT ANALYSIS

• Orginality of nature remained.

• Echo created by contour• Different views

• Hardly accessible • Human pollution• Limited views• Collected water• Safety• Stability of structures

• Water can be the main way to access to whole site.

• Trees hole the soil together

• Wild animal attack• Tree collapse after rain• Landslide• Polluted water


STRENGTH


• Allan’s Water remains originality of the nature simultaneously

making it accessible

• Open and sunny

• Ecosystem is complete in the enclosed curve of the contour

• Echo created by contour concentrates chirping of birds around lake

area

•Tourists get to experience the challenging geology

•Different height and slopes of mountain helps in ecology studies


WEAKNESS


• Deep inside forest is hardly accessible

• Human noise pollution caused by whistling of boatman might scare

the birds away

• Collected water become habitat to mosquitoes and leeches

• Stability of structures is not ensured

OPPORTUNITYContour & Topography


• Lake can be the main access to the whole lake

• Different types of tress can attract different species of birds

• Waterfront/cross bridge/ new links for the convenience of tourists


THREAT


• Wild animals hidden in the jungle might attack tourists

• Trees might collapse after rain due to the loosening of soil overtime

and thus causing landslide to occur

• Tourist who litter might cause the lake to be polluted
