STRENGTH
UNDULATING SITE CONTOUR The gentle slopes are rather easy to
incorporate into a design compared to steep slopes
less prone to landslides provides different views at different levels
while progressing through site
VIEWS Site is placed strategically with many
beautiful panoramic viewpoints View of Gunung Jerai Surrounded by natural environment
WEAKNESS
LACK OF SIGNAGE Visitors usually miss the candis when
visiting the existing museum Prone to getting lost and not knowing
where to go without a guide
LACK OF DRAMATIC ELEMENT OF PATH LEADING TO CANDI Unwelcoming and causes uncertainty in
visitors, whether they are in fact allowed to proceed beyond the staircase
Fails to create a feeling of anticipation
INEFFECTIVE LAYOUT Without a guide, visitors would not know
which way to proceed and are at risk of missing certain exhibits because they are not indicated in any way
The exhibits are too far apart and there is nothing between them to engage the user’s interest
OPPORTUNITIES
WK - LACK OF SIGNAGE Through planning a circulation that clearly
indicates the direction in which the visitor should take, or certain structures that mark where exhibits are depending on the concept and design
WK - LACK OF DRAMATIC ELEMENT OF PATH LEADING TO CANDI Addition of structure, or manipulation of
the contour to create a dramatic element to incite a variety of feelings suiting to one’s design or concept
WK - INEFFECTIVE LAYOUT The fact that exhibits being too far apart can be
used to an advantage by adding items along the way to retain the user’s interest, for example, minor exhibits placed on pathways leading to major exhibits which also serves to guide them in the right direction while they are exploring
Or perhaps at the very least, some interesting landscaping or shading devices could be provided for pathways between major exhibits to retain visitor interest
STR - UNDULATING SITE CONTOUR and VIEWS Manipulation of the site contour and its
already present views, one may create a different experience and view while the user to progresses throughout the site due to the gradual elevation of the contour. The panoramic views are also a strong plus point to be exploited
STR – SOUNDS The all natural setting provides calming
and natural sounds which creates a tranquil atmosphere by default that can be implemented into one’s design
THREATS
PRESENCE OF VERMIN Through observation, there was no anti
vermin net observed which may result in animals entering the site or VIC
LANDSLIDE Though the risk of a landslide is minimal,
due to the low gradient of the slope of the undulating site, it is still there and is possible due to soil erosion witnessed on site
