A Metamorphosis of Space and Color

As the sequel to the critically acclaimed Setia City Convention Centre (SCCC2), built five years ago, Setia City Convention Centre 2 emerges as a transformative addition to the commercial hub of Setia City. Strategically positioned to front the central park, it creates an open-air ambiance for events, seamlessly connected by a grand staircase to the plaza and waterscapes. This seamless integration emphasizes accessibility and a deep connection with the surrounding landscape.

Architectural Concept by Archicentre

The architectural vision behind SCCC2 transcends the conventional, inspired by the awe-inspiring metamorphosis of a caterpillar into a butterfly. Architected by the innovative minds at Archicentre, the building mirrors the scaled patterns and vibrant colors of a caterpillar – green, yellow, white, and black – in its early stages. This creative use of color injects life into what could have been a simple structure, showcasing the journey of transformation from the mundane to the extraordinary.

The hall structure, a combination of reinforced concrete boxes slotted into a large structural steel hangar, features bolt-and-nut joints for efficient and rapid construction. Struts are strategically incorporated to minimize the bulk of the external roof, ensuring a visually appealing aesthetic. The entire design embodies the essence of a metamorphosis, turning an otherwise plain structure into a captivating architectural marvel.

Cladding and Coated Steel Selection

The crucial roofing system at SCCC2 employs a double-skin roof with rock wool and insulation for combined heat and sound insulation. The choice of Swissma SANKO Speed Deck® in Zincalume® Steel as the bottom liner expedites interior fit-out concurrently with the construction period.

The top skin of the roof and walls explode with vibrancy, clad in the lively dance of hues offered by COLORBOND® Steel. Sulphur yellow, veridian, off-white, and cape charcoal black combine in a captivating exterior, injecting an undeniable character into the Setia City landscape. The choice of COLORBOND® Steel, renowned for its durability and tested performance, ensures zero disruption – a critical requirement for a public convention space of this magnitude.

Beyond Function: An Exemplar of Timeless Creativity

Setia Convention Centre 2 stands not only as a functional space for events but as an exemplar of timeless creativity, where transformative design and architectural innovation marry seamlessly. Its vibrant colors and unique form solidify its place as an iconic landmark within Setia City, showcasing the power of bold architectural choices and thoughtful construction. SCCC2 is a testament to the future of event spaces, a canvas for countless possibilities, and a stage for impactful gatherings that will leave a lasting mark.
