The Saffron is part of a plan to re-develop Sentul, an urban enclave in Kuala Lumpur and push it forward to the next century. The idea is to provide a wholesome home environment that has reconciled itself with the reality of urban living concept. As elbow room is scarce, development tends to look inwards for breathing space. This introversion results in the concept of the oasis.
Like an oasis that brings images of a paradise in a hot dry desert, the urban oasis is a green garden. It is around this green garden that the buildings are arranged about and becomes both the visual and physical center of attraction. The oasis provides the much needed elbow room in a community. Articulated as a garden with swimming pools, sitting areas, playgrounds and barbeque areas, the oasis becomes the center of community, recreation and social interaction.
To safe-guard this oasis, The Saffron is girdled by a ring of perimeter internal road and greenery that provides both the physical and visual buffer to the city streets. The turn from the city street into The Saffron is greeted by a whimsical waterfall in a landscaped backdrop. The perimeter road is lined with greenery that makes for a pleasing drive before returning home.
The buildings are expressed in modernist terms with basic tectonic forms that are finely detailed by clean straight lines. The height of the building is exaggerated with thick vertical fins that brings the perspective skywards. This exaggeration is soften with horizontal lines suggested by beam lines and white window frames.
To meld together the modernist straight lines of the buildings with the organic form of the greenery, the gardens are planned in classical landscaping of ordered form and symmetry. Details then turn to the organic where the swimming pool shower becomes a playful sculpture and the seating bench shaped as a wave of timber.
Thus, the modern, the urban and the green are melded together in this urban oasis.
