Talula Hill Farm Resort

Talula Hill is perched on a hilltop near Gunung Lambak in Kluang, Johor. The 10 acre site was originally an oil palm estate that is to be converted into a vegetable farm and fruit orchard. The intention is to develop a place for organic farming and sustainable living — a model for a future green livelihood. The proprietor’s plan is to have a reception building giving access to a cluster of cabins. The cabins will include a multipurpose hall for small gatherings. Steel frame buildings or prefabricated buildings are proposed for ease of construction. The cabins are stacked together on the slope with voids between the cabins. The buildings are raised on stilts and cantilever from the hillside in keeping with the concept of architecture that ‘touches the ground lightly’.

The planning began with multiple attempts to position the cabins to suit the existing terrain and access while ensuring efficient surface drainage that would feed a man-made pond. As one enters the farmstay, one arrives at a welcome centre that houses a registration counter and a small reading area. The building’s entrance has breathtaking views of the surroundings. Timber and stone are the materials of choice for a rustic overall appearance.
