ARGUMENT When we discussed about the Malay Traditional Architecture, the picture that comes to our mind is a traditional kampong house that sits comfortably within its surrounding. Pitch roof to block the heat from the sun and shed the rain when it pours. The facades are recessed, Long roof overhangs. Large openings that allow maximum ventilation. Walls are operable or open-able allowing flexibility of uses and function from comfort to visual and privacy. Raised floor making no contact with the ground, allowing natural ventilation and avoiding conduction of heat from the ground. The sleeping areas face east and front verandah always avoiding facing west. They are loosely arranged allowing good air movements around building. The surrounding enhances the sheltering from the hot sun having trees indirectly as natural filter. The indoor is as open plan as possible, with loosely arrange furniture creating transparency of light and ease the natural ventilation. The interior sometime is visually gloomy providing sense of coolness against the hot outside environment. The Malay Traditional Architecture is a reflection of careful understanding of our people towards their environment even without architect! This is implicit language that we normally misplaced.
