So, community center plays an important role as the hub of community development. Nevertheless, the Malaysian community center is not being used effectively and these face with lack of participation. The present paper is a review article aiming to present the important aspect for increasing participation in the Malaysian community center. The research is roughly divided into three phases that includes the development and assessment of: physical factors, functional factors and perceptual factors. This study tries to propose a design framework for the successful community center that enhance participation and integration in Malaysia.

Community centre is one of the main social facilities with the purpose of facilitating community interaction and finally, contributing community development in urban areas. The study formes by in-depth interview with the deputy director of urban design, building department and professional expert in urban design project. This study assessed approaches that participations can use to evaluate critical factors for developing the community centres.A city like Kuala Lumpur, wherescarcity of spaces for community gathering and interaction is severe, it is urgent to resolve theproblems and enhance the potentials for ensuring effective and multipurpose uses of thecommunity centres.

Although, the Malaysian community centers are not being used effectively and these have been faced with lack of participation. Based on this problem, This study conducted to identify the physical principles for formulating a framework to access the active community center. It was aimed to compare the result of the scientific analysis with the user responses from the community centers' user. For this purpose a questionnaire survey was conducted among four community centers of Kuala Lumpur. In order to evaluate the current condition of Malaysian community center, the questionnaire was prepared based on physical factors. These physical factors contain two main priciples: the first was the accessibility of the community center and the second was about physical condition of the builing. The results indicate the level of user evaluation in terms of physical factor which are provided in Kuala Lumpur community centers. The approach to investigate the physical factors of community centers in this study can be applied to even different types of public space. The results and improvement suggestions are suitable for other research, for the quality of public space and life in the community center.

However, the Malaysian community centers, which are provided across the city, are not underutilized. This study introduces strategies of architecture toward planning and designing the community center and understanding of architectures toward physical principles for development of community centers. The research method is based on in-depth interviews with the deputy director of urban design, building department and professional expert in urban design projects in Malaysia. The explanation of the physical principles in the community center used as an example to validate the physical approach. The respondent results indicate how participants prioritized the physical principles ensuring a development and success of community centers in order to reach better quality of life. So, this research will contribute to architecture and urban designer who are in charge of community center design in order to improve the inappropriate condition in Malaysia and developing countries.

In addition, there has brought about a number of challenges such as greater ambient noise, increased environmental stressors and information overload. High concentration of buildings actually triggers many environmental issues. The instant objective of this research was to examine the preference of high-rise buildings' residents toward rooftop garden to promote urban agriculture. In this research a method presented quantitative-survey questionnaire distributed among of residents in The Sri Putramas 2 condominium in Kuala Lumpur and The Heritage condominium in Selangor. The result is towards recognition of preference to elevate sustainable building and promoting the usage of rooftop gardening residential building. In conclusion most of participants release positive correlation with having rooftop garden in their living area and the outcome of this study is that, rooftop garden as reduce environmental problems. Furthermore, rooftop garden also contribute to the improvement of microclimate.

Clearly the essential function of roofs is to keep the weather out of a high-rise building but, no roof should be constrained to this single purpose, especially in this global urban development which make is very difficult to find lands for parks and gardens as well as, use of urban agriculture. This study we aim to understand the subject that of roof garden in order to usage urban agriculture at roof garden in high-rise building. The present paper is a review paper that tries to some properties of roof garden for usage of urban agriculture at roof garden in high-rise building. Finally, the use of urban agriculture at rooftop garden is very useful for residents who live in the building that has this technology, for example it can help to achieve economic and environmental sustainability. In addition, using urban agriculture at rooftop garden can help different countries to food security. So, benefits of roof garden and urban agriculture encourage to people who, live in high-rise building for use of roof garden in Malaysia.
