In 2018, IDCA was commissioned to redesign three key interior spaces within the Sarawak State Legislative Assembly Building (DUNS). The upgraded canteen reimagines a previously enclosed, dimly lit space into a bright, nature-connected dining environment that serves both daily staff usage and the large crowds during DUNS sittings
IDCA opened the canteen to the adjacent courtyard garden through new full-height glass doors and an outdoor deck, introducing natural light and enabling the garden to be used recreationally for the first time. The interior draws inspiration from an abstracted forest glade — rounded timber panels, boulder-like fixed furniture, and a sculpted canopy ceiling create a calming, organic atmosphere that guides users toward the courtyard “forest” beyond.
