NARRATIVE
Sama - Sama is a space where friends of different race could dine together without compromising through dietary means. The space features live music performed by local talents as well.
The space is targeted towards people of all ages and communities. The inspiration came from our every day lives, sometimes we have muslim friends, and having a meal together could sometimes make them feel ostracized at times, making them feel uncomfortable.

TEXTURAL CONTRAST
The immediate surroundings of Kampong Glam contrasts to the rest of the city, a off-beat location with lots of interesting things within its boundary.
INSPIRATION
Kampong Glam is a very unique site, considering the rich history which the site holds. In the past people from different nearby countries migrated to Kampong Glam and lived together in harmony, despite the difference in ethnicity.
To represent that spirit, the space is composed of multiple different textures & materials. Representing - though the very contrasting colors & textures, it comes together and co-exsist with one another, in the same way how we coexist with neighbours & friends of different ethnicity. It is a celebration of it.

2ND FLOOR
[MAIN DINING HALL]
The main dining hall is arranged in a manner where the spaces are within close proximity, rather than far apart. This is done with the intention of fostering a sense of community whilst dining, and a sense of unity whilst singing along to a song that they know in common.
There are buffet stations towards the right of the space, and the plate storage has a door on the rear for the staff’s ease of access and use, improving circulation efficiency for the staff and comfort for customers.
3rd FLOOR
[lounge]
The lounge is meant for people whom enjoy the ambiance of the music from a distance. The lounge features 3 core spaces which has a top-down view of the performers through the void in the middle.
This lounge is a homage to the real estate investor - Dr Ameen Talib, where he opened a cafe that does not serve alcohol, as an alternative nightlife.

In similar fashion to how Kampongs of the past are relatively exposed, and free, where the windows & doors are always open. The space blurs the line between interior & exterior, combining both spaces together.
With the use of perforated bricks [with motifs], it acts as a form of barrier, whilst allowing air & light to flow within the space. The use of motifs on the bricks as well, is a homage to the immediate muslim community within the site. It represents how closely nit the muslim community is and how they treat each other equally. As well as the boldness of the community as a whole.

Materiality
Materials chosen for this project are different in nature, and it represents our local community as a whole together.
The rattan is the main choice of material, as it is a homage to one of the mini-kampongs that existed in the past, where it many of its occupants were of Melaka deccent, where they brought rattan goods from home.
