PASSIVE
ELEMENTS
• 1ST floor only get sun at around 2/3 pm till sunset.
• 2nd floor get most sun as its being exposed to 10 am to sunset sun
Wind direction
Wind reflection

Using handkerchief to test wind.
Conclude that bottom part theres limited
wind
Top part most wind
ACTIVE
• LIGHTS
• FANS
Active - light
Still dark at night due to insufficient
light distribution
PROBLEM
ACTIVE – PASSIVE – ENVIRONMENT
Strength Weakness Opportunity Threats
• Very windy at the top
• Quite windy at 1st floor
• Students/ staff have three
choices of food outlets
• Get the full view of the
triangular garden at the 2nd
floor
• Sufficient amount of
lighting
• 1st floor uses CFL lighting
• Crowded during lunch time
(12pm)
• Lack of human activity at
2nd floor
• No place to sit at second
floor except for the ground
• 2nd floor no shelter to
protect from rain or sun.
• 1st floor west side of
building will be exposed to
sun at around 2/3 till
sunset.
• Only use as a purpose :
place to eat.
• Dark at night at 2nd floor
• Make a shelter at 2nd floor
to cater to students needs.
• Provide more lighting at 2nd
floor.
• Put more chairs at second
floor
• Put something to attract
students who can use the
place as other purposes
than eat or study.
• Generate a structure to
protect users at 1st floor
from the sun.
• Sun
• Fallen leaves
• Rain water
SWOT ANALYSIS
PROBLEMS
• Crowded during lunch time
(12pm)
• Lack of human activity at 2nd floor
• No place to sit at second floor
except for the ground
• 2nd floor no shelter to protect
from rain or sun.
• 1st floor west side of building will
be exposed to sun at around 2/3
till sunset.
• Only use as a purpose : place to
eat.
• Dark at night at 2nd floor
SOLUTIONS
1st floor
• Channel the crowd from first floor to the
second floor.
• Decrease amount of tables and chairs at
first floor to aid the channelling
• Add sunshades to the west side of building.
2nd floor
• Make a semi enclosed structure that takes
in the considerations of sustainability and
lightness.
• Add more light to enhance brightness
1st floor solution
Add sunshades to the west side of building.
Channelling the crowd
• Add resting place and furnitures.
• Entertainment corner.
2nd floor solutions
Goals
• Get most of the wind
• Sustainable
• More than 1 purpose
Getting the most wind
• Wind are dispersed mostly using the overhang slots.
Sustainable - lighting
Sustainable – Green roofing
Advantages of green roof :
• Transform dead space into garden space
• Reduce water run off = lesser flooding
• Reduce heat effect
• Improve airt quality
• Improve aesthetic
• Give a quieter ambience
• Less work to install roof
EXECUTION
GOALS
• Adapt to the current site
• Span a height of 3000 m ( in contrast to human height )
• Sustainability
• Materials that diffuse heat and yet light
• Don’t rely too much on active elements.
Adapting to the current site
Common
elements:
• Parallelogram
• Repetition of
wood decking
• Linear
organisation
Ideations
Plus Minus Interesting - 1
Plus (+) Minus (-) Interesting Total
• Provide shade for
level 1
• Sense of direction
• Adapt to current site
• Doesn’t utilise the
grass patches
• Doesn’t fully take in
the consideration of
wind
• Louvers that extend
to level 1 = harmony 2
Plus Minus Interesting - 2
Plus (+) Minus (-) Interesting Total
• Green roof provide
cooling ventilation
• Very open
• Walls are not very
practical 1
Plus Minus Interesting - 3
Plus (+) Minus (-) Interesting Total
• Passive elements like
louvers are applied
• Neglected the green • Provide a great
scenery (2) 2
Plus Minus Interesting - 4
Plus (+) Minus (-) Interesting Total
• Very spacious
• Adapt to site(2)
• Doesn’t protect from
wind
• No emphasis
1
RESULTS
• Ideation 3 got the most positive points.
• So ideation 3 will be the chosen idea adding on to the positive aspect
of other ideation
PASSIVE ELEMENTS
Louvers
Louvers
Louvers
Louvers
Louvers help reflect the sun
according to east and west
LOUVERS
• So the louvers protect users from sun’s heat by reflection.
• The louvers are faced according to the direction of the east and west
sun.
• Also the louvers are not fully covered as this doesn’t block the view of
triangular garden and bedok reservoir.
Feature of the trellis
glass:
Glass acts as a shelter
for rain, wheras
crawlers on trellis
cool the area.
GREEN ROOF PROVIDE COOLNESS TO THE AREA
WIND
Wind can easily pass through
because of new glass
Glass railings
Glass railings have
holes to allow
more wind intake
ACTIVE - LIGHTS
Lights are place at all columns . Since
columns are the ones that are being
distributed. This is to increase the
distribution of lights. Also the bulbs are LED
as being research earlier, LED provide many
benefits.
Drawings
section
Conclusion
• In conclusion, My design utilised passive elements such as louvers ,
trellis and green roof. Louvers help to reflect light from sun. Trellis
helps to cool the area and enhance the beauty of the site. The green
roof cools the selected area. I achieve my goals of using passive
elements mostly, adapt to environment and sustainability.
