description Urban development is often at the expense of reducing trees or completely neglecting them. It is a common practice, especially in a developed country. This leaves negative impact and poses a threat to the living surroundings and the environment. Urban Forestry Approach solves this problem and it is considered an effective Nature-Based Solution to achieve sustainable urban development. Innovative design, planning, and management of tree population in an urban setting could permit the coexistence of urban fabric and nature which consequently benefit the physical, social, and economical aspects of the community while improving the environment in the area. The research is to propose a nature-living laboratory that accentuates the avian ecosystem in Technovation Park Hill Forest of UTM through architectural design intervention as sustainable urban development in the regeneration of Jalan Pontian Lama. As part of Nexus Masterplan, it is expected to strengthen the presence of UTM institutions (Innovative, Entrepreneurial, and Global) to the surrounding community.
