Focus : Capturing the light, harnessing the energy

​

We analyzed the project's potential to harness energy through solar panels and capture light through sky domes to supply the building with natural light during the day and free artificial light at night time.

Focus : Removing the heat

​

As overheating is a major issue in a tropical city like Bangkok, we put an accent on ensuring that we did not bring unwanted heat into the building. The envelope is protected by the integration of efficient shading devices, green facades and roofs and high performance windows.  

 

To further emphasize this cooling effect, we studied the building's orientation and shape to enhance natural ventilation within the building group corridors.
