This is call wudhu in the Arabic word. In order to make the wudhu is in the perfect order; it is required to perform certain actions in correct sequence. The ablution area is very important to ensure the users' comfort and satisfied while taking the wudhu. Users often complain of inadequate size of the ablution area and narrow space when taking wudhu. To perform a prayer in a comfortable situation, a good ablution's condition and space is also important because in Islam, the cleanliness is a very important aspect especially when someone wants to pray. Therefore this research focused on the significance on concept and design elements in the ablution area. These elements of design and concept were discussed in this study to make sure that the right and suitable aspects of design of the ablution area can be design and construct accordingly to the needs of the users. The design for the ablution area either in the mosque or the prayer rooms in the shopping centres should take a consideration of different types of users; the normal users, the elderly and the disabled. Keywords—design of ablution standard, Muslim prayer halls, design environment, ablution criteria, wudhu. I. INTRODUCTION In the world population, Muslims people cover about 20 – 25% of the world population which is Islam is the majority almost in 40 countries [4]. With the high percentage of Muslims ordinary doing their practice the Islam, including prayers, the needed for Muslims is to design, build and maintain the prayer space in the whole of the world. Some designers, either Muslim or non-Muslim, are interested to design either mosque or a praying facility in shopping mall, an exhibition hall, an airport, or other public building [11]. Wudhu or ablution is one of Islamic procedure for washing parts of the body using water for preparation of formal prayers (Solah). According to [3], ablution comes from ―Al-Wadha'ah‖ which means cleanliness and brightness. While [6] defines ablution as an act that in physical and spiritual. Ablution is a state that must be achieved as a prerequisite prior to Muslim prayer, in order to do so; one must perform wudhu or ritual cleansing and purification. The ablution function involves cleaning with fresh water certain parts of the body in a certain steps and according to right order. It starts with rinsing the palms, rinsing the mouth, washing the nose by sniffing, washing the face, washing each arm up to the elbow, wiping

The Malay house is designed in a simple square form. Square form creates a practical space that is easy to organize household items. The houses are constructed using medium weight fiber material—timber. Timber is easy to cut and form house structure elements such as floor, roof trusses, and wall stud. The combination of form and space creates many design elements used by occupants to serve, organize, and sustain the Malay way of life in a traditional Malay house. The scope of research is focused on Melaka traditional house, the earlier Malay civilization in Peninsular Malaysia. The analysis focused on house components of the structure and spatial activities in the house. In conclusion, the elements’ integration of form and space in Malay traditional houses has revealed the existence of built-in furniture. The main function is to organize household items and to store utensils and equipment.

The study is going to investigate outlook of enthusiasm respondents, level of preference and pleasure in organize to provide a narrative of the Yemeni houses criteria, unique features and future conceptions for comfortable and spatial functions. In this approach, the features of the houses in the area might rediscover for future indication. This study will support with literature on the general explanation overview of location and geographical, climate and spatial design elements. The study will included the explanations about the spatial design in Old City Sana'a, multi-design in traditional tower houses in Old City Sana'a, the issues and factors affecting the design of traditional tower houses in Old City Sana'a. Some of several methods have been chosen to get the good consequence, such as observations, measurements and questionnaires to st...

Noise emission, especially from Light Rail Transit (LRT) lines, affect daily activities and can lead to a range of health disorders such as cardiovascular problems and poor task performance. The study aims to determine the impact of noise pollution from the LRT network on the teaching and learning processes at schools within the City of Kuala Lumpur. The study employs a multi-methodology approach on a number of schools in selected zones within the City Council of Kuala Lumpur. Site visits and observations were performed on the schools concerned. Opinion survey questionnaires were disseminated to evaluate the attitudes and views of the current situation. On-site noise level measurements were undertaken to substantiate the opinion survey. The overall result revealed that noise from the LRT lines has significantly affected its neighborhood and disturbed the classe...

In Malaysia, BIM previously implemented by Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) but in the Interior Design (ID) industry is a new approach and the lacking of knowledge is the issue for interior design industry to implement BIM. This research is to identify the key factors of BIM implementation in the interior design industry from the analysis of research and literature review. Mixmethod was applied in this research and data were analysed to identify the key factors in this research. Research was found several of key factors in the interior design industry while using BIM in Malaysia. These factors will be isolated as variables and barriers for BIM implementation.

Implementation of BIM in the interior industry is important to enhance knowledge and designing process in ID. BIM is a process that uses innovative technology in the building design, construction, and management. This study evaluates the implementation of BIM in terms of readiness, awareness and barriers in interior designing within Malaysia context. A pilot study was conducted on sixteen samples which are the ID firms involved to identify factor affecting the implementation of BIM in ID industry. Findings of the study show that a poor knowledge and implementation BIM in ID firm in Malaysia context. This research were started with pilot survey method which is sixteen firms were chosen randomly to get the overview in the current situation implementation of BIM in ID industry.

The furniture is essential to determine the lifestyle, environment and social activities. Studies on the origins of the Malays enable us to understand the background and social life of traditional Malays, which eventually led to their civilization. Data analysis is focused on kitchen area in Negeri Sembilan traditional houses, since it is the most active area in the house. The definition of furniture through an interview with experts plays an important role in defining furniture categories, types and usage. The significant activities in the kitchen are analyzed to define the furniture function. In conclusion, Malay furniture which exists in the kitchen of traditional Negeri Sembilan houses is categorized into three functions - body-supporting unit, storage/utility and tool. The furniture is designed into two types - loose item and built-in with house structure. The furniture was basically simple, but the design is direct to the basic needs of user and kitchen function.
