Skyblox Co-Living Housing

TKCA Architect

SkyBlox Co-living Housing in Kuala Lumpur is a pioneering project that merges innovative design with sustainable principles to transform urban living. With its striking yellow cantilever prefab construction, SkyBlox provides accommodation for over 500 residents across 320 bespoke en-suite rooms, seamlessly integrating modernity with nature. The project embraces a “Back to Nature” concept, blurring the boundaries between indoor and outdoor spaces. Communal areas, featuring bare brick walls and abundant greenery, create a rustic charm that enhances residents’ connection to the natural environment.

Central to SkyBlox is “Vibrant Communal Living,” designed to enrich residents’ experiences and encourage social interaction. The dynamic color palette and features like the “SkyBox” pavilion energize the environment, while cross ventilation and natural daylighting create inviting communal spaces. A central courtyard serves as the community’s heart, fostering a sense of belonging.

SkyBlox’s commitment to sustainability is evident in its use of Prefabricated Prefinished Volumetric Construction (PPVC), which minimizes waste and on-site activities, aligning with United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The project also incorporates functional and aesthetic wall signage, enhancing both guidance and visual appeal.

Overall, SkyBlox exemplifies how architecture can harmonize with nature and sustainability, setting a new benchmark for urban housing that promotes greener, healthier, and more connected communities.
