Pasar Payang is the point that people gather the most and disperse to other places. The promenade and junction act as a linkage to our pavilion. By embedding the fishing programme, our pavilion draw people and further enhance their involvement at waterfront.
Strength
The strategic location of Pasar Payang with a waterfront view.
Surrounded by tourists’ spots such as Pasar Payang and Drawbridge.
The jetty from the promenade of the new Pasar Payang to Pulau Redang strengthens the connectivity and tourism industry of Kuala Terengganu.
Weakness
Lack of sun shading along the promenade of new Pasar Payang.
Lack of covered walkway from one pavilion to another pavilion.
Lack of safety measures set up for the accessibility of the visually impaired.
Opportunity
The place of new Pasar Payang can develop good interpersonal relations between people.
Threat
An unpredictable accident can happen as the fencing at the boundary does not meet the safety requirement.

The initial idea of form was derived from the motion of fishing. The motion then becomes a curved form and interacts with each other to make up a more abstract form. The curved form has become the roof structure of our pavilion to act as an eye-catching feature. The railing of our pavilion was arranged into waveform to emphasize the element of our site which is the waterfront.

Kuala Terengganu is located in the east of Malay Peninsula, facing the South China Sea with long wide beaches that lie from Kuala Besut up to Kuala Kemaman. The geographic features encouraged the people living at the coast to get involved in the fisheries industry. Fishing has become their local interest. Without any proper place to fishing, the local people are suffering from heat while fishing. This has always been the main issue for the people who like to fish. The people always cross over the existing railing and have fishing at Pesisir Payang.Thus,it gives an image that fishing activities are illegal at the area.
