Rejuvenate integrated nodes through permeable spaces at Kluang Town Centre. Case study : Kluang Town Centre, Johor

The issue about the livability in urban area has contribute to more research findings to measure the parameters livability in urban places such as city centres. As city centres well known by their great social interactions, pedestrian linkages,variety of functions and activities, Nowaday because of...
