Abstract

This project proposes a community-focused green recycling hub in Tambun, Perak, to address critical urban issues related to waste disposal, public hygiene, and social inclusivity. It explores a design solution that integrates infrastructure for waste sorting, composting, and educational outreach within a multi-functional space. Using ergonomic spatial planning, participatory design theory, and sustainable construction methods, the project enhances public awareness, supports local livelihoods, and promotes environmental stewardship. The hub includes dedicated zones for recycling, eco-commercial activities, community engagement, and recreational use. The architectural response leverages existing site strengths and stakeholder collaboration to facilitate a green lifestyle and integrated urban ecology.
