What Ideahouse Innovates

The Sime Darby Idea House is a prototype house

that is to be emulated. It is created in a world of

environmental awareness, responsibility and with

a mindset to provide sustainability for today’s and

tomorrow’s generations. With global oil consumption

rising by the day and carbon emissions escalating,

there is a concerted worldwide effort in minimising

waste and preserving our planet’s natural resources.

The Sime Darby Idea House is a socially,

economically and environmentally responsive

prototype dwelling that would provide an insight

into future tropical living, showcasing the latest in

sustainable architecture in its quest to become the

first carbon-neutral residence in Southeast Asia.

Conceived as a test bed for new ideas, this house

is a collaboration involving the world’s leading

technology and solutions providers – architects,

engineers, landscape designers, urbanists,

contractors and suppliers.

The collaboration brings together some of the

best innovations, solutions and technology available

from these companies in their respective field to

improve energy efficiency in homes and reduce the

consumption of limited resources.

We at Sime Darby will systematically adopt the

green ideas in this house, in part or in entirety,

in all our housing projects, demonstrating our

commitment to creating sustainable futures for

future generations.

Modularisation and

EasE of ConstruCtion

landsCaPE The Idea House is positioned as a pavilion within the landscape,

with its curvilinear forms inspired by and blending in with the site’s

topographical contours. Both house and landscape are integrated via

a landscape scheme divided into garden sections for health, wellbeing,

healing, recreation and permaculture.

‘Grey water’ from basins and showers is recycled to flush the WCs.

Aerating the showers saves 64 litres per day. The rainwater captured

by the sloping roof is collected to irrigate the vegetation within

the development. The water harvested is 100% recycled to cater

for a family of five.

and solar EnErGy

The house is orientated to minimise heat gain and lower cooling loads.

Its deep overhangs provide shade and weather protection, reducing

reliance on mechanical ventilation, cooling systems and its associated

costs. The house will have photovoltaic cell technology to harness

the sun’s rays as a renewable energy source.

BuildinG forM The house is inspired by the traditional Malay Kampong house in its

socio-environmental responsiveness, providing opportunities for social

interaction in the anjung and serambi verandah spaces. Open, permeable

flexible interior spaces with higher roof volumes allow for social and

spatial flexibility, made comfortable by cross ventilation.

natural vEntilation The open plan nature of the house, with sliding external and internal

walls, capitalises on its ability to be cross ventilated. Orientating the

living spaces in a southwesterly direction harnesses the prevailing

southwest wind and reduces the need for artificial ventilation.

Internal temperature and humidity levels were also lowered.

ExPansion and

ContraCtion

The house is a fully adaptable dwelling for the family. It can create more

space as the family expands and adjust when the children leave the nest.

Open plan living provides a more flexible lifestyle, promoting adaptation

of spaces to suit the family’s living, working and recreational needs.

Modern construction methods using prefabrication and modularisation

are excellent benefits to the industry. Faster, easier and more cost-

effective, they allow for structures to be demounted if necessary,

to preserve the terrain for future generations and development.

They also provide opportunities to employ individuals with a

lower skills base.

Multi-disCiPlinary

CollaBoration

The house is the collaborative result by architects, engineers, landscape

designers, urbanists, contractors and suppliers with the shared vision to

make The Idea House the benchmark in sustainable residential design.

This was achieved through pro-active knowledge sharing.

sCalaBility The house’s flexibility of modularisation allows us to minimise the

cost of materials used in building larger, higher quality homes at

a more affordable price. By using a single component template,

the Idea House can be replicated and scaled to other typologies.

The close interaction between architect, landscape architect,

the house within the site. It responds to the contours of the site’s

topography, minimising the cutting and filling of the landscape and

preserving the site as much as possible for future generations.

EnvironMEntal analysis The house provides excellent daylight penetration to the habitable

into early evening. Most of the spaces allow for free flow of air

with little obstruction. Velocity of air is fairly constant and

natural ventilation is effective.

nothing is more beautiful than a line that brings out a form

ABOUT FICUS PEAK

Function often dictates the shape of a finished form; houses included.

Ficus Peak however, adopt a more contrarian approach in the design of

its semi-detached and superlink homes. Where convention prescribes

that a house extend itself from front to back, a Ficus Peak home extends

its profile sideways in a unique and ultramodern manner.

That modernity is clearly evident in the home’s exterior where a

suspended roof covers the home – a flat, slightly angled plane that

adds to the aesthetics of the facade.

To enhance a sense of community, there are no fences separating the

homes. Even so, security is not compromised, as the single entry/exit

point together with an anti-climb perimeter fencing safeguards the entire

development. In addition, all homes come with built-in security features.

Semi-detached Superlink

Denai Alam was inspired by

the age-old concept behind

traditional kampongs, one that

stresses on communal living in a

neighbourhood that abounds with

traditional charms. Central to this

is a 4.8 km denai, or footpath,

that connects the entire Denai

Alam, fostering a sense of

community. As for accessibility

– getting in and out is easy with

the GCE literally at Denai Alam’s

doorstep. There’s also the NKVE,

a mere short drive away.

Find your dream home here.

THE TOWNSHIP

Ficus Peak also boasts a number of firsts in Denai Alam –

solar-heated water for showers in all its bathrooms*, HSBB-ready

homes** (high-speed broadband), a true plug-and-play convenience

and, the first semi-detached homes.

* Except maid’s room.** Applicable to Unif i service by TM only.
