BOH Visitor Center, Malaysia

BOH Visitor Center is located in Malaysia, overlooking an amazing landscape. The land under it is tea plantations and factory. The center will provide visitors to view and appreciate the landscape. The building also house the existing tea shop and improve visitors facilities.
 
The approach view of the 145m long and 9m in width building reveals the large cantilever of the balcony overlooking the valley. A very large tree has been preserved and it now anchors the building to its surrounding natural landscape.
 
The terrace holds seating for those staying outdoors. This is linked to the F+B area partially enclosed by sliding glass panels allowing maximum views and natural ventilation on warmer days.

The shape of the building and its location is a direct response to the site with cut outs in the structure to avoid cutting down existing trees or demolition of other important site features. A new car park area for the visitor has been allowed for at the back accessible by drive below the “bridge†segment of the new building.
