Typology

The building orientation and layout is carefully planned to maximize natural daylighting and minimize solar heat gain. By positioning windows and shading devices strategically, the design harness the benefits of natural light while reducing the need for artificial lighting and cooling.

Additionally, the analysis of wind patterns enables the design to incorporate natural ventilation strategies. By creating openings, such as windows, vents, or atriums, in areas that benefit from prevailing winds, the design can facilitate passive airflow and reduce the reliance on mechanical ventilation systems. This not only improves the indoor air quality but also reduces energy consumption.
