PROJECT OBJECTIVE

• To demonstrate knowledge and practice in the process of producing a schematic design proposal for multiple functions and multi-storey building (3 storey).

• To understand the cultural context of the site and the user in producing a comprehensive building that respects the local community

• To translate design concepts and themes into a functional space, layout, and facade.

• To apply the understanding of the architectural design elements and principles with the appropriate use of forms and clear structural grid approaches to optimize space functions;

• To enhance student’s ability to critically analyzing the common issues of public building design, especially in terms of overall site planning, the end-user needs, and the possible effects of the development to its surrounding;

• To establish a positive relationship between the proposed design to the existing surrounding environment and other structures to the site;

• To understand the integration between horizontal & vertical circulations;

• To intelligently decide on construction and detailing which reflects the integration of environmentally friendly structures, materials, and services most appropriate for multiple functions and double-layer building with post & beams and short to medium span structures;

• To apply passive approaches for environmental comfort and energy efficiency by maximizing the utilization of natural ventilation, daylighting, solar shading, vegetation, etc.;

• To apply appropriate water supply and plumbing system with complimentary use of rainwater harvesting strategy

• To apply the Universal Design approach for all group of users’ accessibilities

• To develop skills and techniques in manual architectural graphic presentation, using computeraided design drawing and rendering tools
