Sorry Ian that day i didnt bring my model and drawings for studio. I've modified a little bit of it.This is my floor plan.
I changed the idea of exploded square to exploded rectangle to suit the shape of the site and space is easier to be arranged. There will be a community space at the centre surrounded by building blocks. N can see that spaces between the building blocks are narrow at the central but after that become wider.This is to show the exploded effect of space. Besides, there is no obvious symmetrical line because every piece of explosion is different. The order is slightly shown by the path walking from the entrance straight to the field as building blocks is balance located at the right n left side.
This is my roof plan. I think i should draw out the flat roof of each block. But not to confuse it, only draw the upper layer of the roof. It looks funny that two big dots are actually trees. And the three circles are voids to allow sunshine to penetrate and rainwater to shower the central. It will create a natural environment in the building with this flat roof. It unite the building as well.
Before that, I was thinking to use another type of roof..which is not flat roof like now. It was slanted roof from outside to inside..to lead the rainwater flows toward the direction where glass walls are used. This will create a layer of curtain when raining. But, with this design, i failed to add an open space pergola or corridor among the building blocks. Unless it's built separately. Yet, not unite.What do u think about that?

Wei Chii: The Before Roof of Another Type is much much better. The flat roof is no so good. You didn’t fail in anything, you just forgot that you can have a series of columns going up to support an umbrella like lightweight canopy/roof/pergola/skylight/etc (even with retractable canvas canopies) to make this a really nice pasar malam chee cheong kai mall! Wonderful!
I’m not sure about the curtain of rain water—it may wet everything. If it doesn’t it’s ok. If you use metal sheets the outer wall and the roof can all be one continuous element.
Better to make the big circle an oval courtyard-opening with the tree (with the red flowers?) at one end of it. The other tree may not be necessary. In such a small space one courtyard is enough.
Your parking doesn’t work. 3 gates are too many. Parallel parking bays are 6m x 2.4m and not 4.8m x 2.4m which is for row parking. Long narrow road for parking with gostanbalik very bad. Cut gardening area by about half, and park all your cars in this area combined with the western entrance area. Should be big enough.
Try to get away from “corner join corner” way of designing small rooms—you get sharp cornered classrooms which reduces usability.
Think about how you’re going to express the fact that the blocks were exploded from one big block—is it in the floor pattern? The solids and voids? The colours and materials? Heights? Etc?
