Environment

Building in its simplest form acts independent of each other. Where the patterned facade with varying open apertures allowing cool air into the builing doesn’t reach the central areas. Inspired by the precedent the building will be cooled down by infiltrating the floor slabs with HDPE pipes  

Fig 24.The lighting diagram shows how the buildings road facing walls receive varying levels of direct sunlight while the roof is in ambient light 

With the analysis of the sun path it was clear using this mesh as a tool to uniform and maximise the direct light penetration on all sides of the building would force the aperture of the mesh design to alter accordingly
