/// COVER STORY
Transforming The City’s Architecture
E
stablished in the 1980s, the Tan Brothers
Machinery Company (TBMC) is a popular
car dealership in Sabah and Sarawak.
After growing the business for 30 years, the
management decided to take a leap of faith and
venture into property development. Thus, TBMC
Development was born!
T1 @ Bundusan will be the first project launched
by TBMC Development and an exciting future
lies ahead for this novel property developer.
Award-winning Sabahan architect Mak Thur Pei
who received the inaugural Tan Sri Chan Sau Lai
Architecture Award by the Malaysian Institute of
Architects (PAM) is behind the fresh and innovative
design.
The first of its kind in Kota Kinabalu, T1 @
Bundusan is set to transform building typologies in
Sabah. It is located along Jalan Bundusan, a bustling
thoroughfare surrounded by existing commercial
and residential developments. The state-of-the-art
structure will have a vibrant character, and will be a
celebrated landmark in the neighborhood.

T1 @ Bundusan aims to provide a multi-faceted,
round-the-clock amenity that will revitalize the
surrounding vicinity. The medium scale commercial
building comprised of multiple clusters of
building. A signature typology of the architect,
the commercial block in front is composed of
three blocks of five-storey clusters with multiple
units designed to accommodate offices and retail
outlets.
These clusters are interconnected at all floors
to all the facilities for convenient circulation
and movement. The topmost level houses the
F&B outlets and is linked directly to the other
commercial block via an ultra modern overpass
that will light up brilliantly at night.
The uppermost floor entitled the Sky Terrace
features a dramatic cantilever supported by a
unique structural system. This bold overhang is
the key architectural statement that signifies the
distinguishing appeal of the development.
