I am particularly drawn to buildings that have irregularities in shape because that generates a sense of uniqueness and makes me want to go inside the building to explore more.
Since our project is to build an exhibition center, the exterior geometry will play a crucial role in attracting tourists and visitors. Therefore, I want to have a building that have floors with different geometry.
It’s also important to realize that multi-story building should be multi-functional, meaning that there should be more than just exhibition spaces within the building because visitors might get bored and needs additional amenities such as recreational areas.
During the night, the lighting features is what makes a building stand out from outside. Therefore, I want to add some exterior lighting to the building, and I will also choose LED lights to reduce energy consumption.
I will use materials with high R-value for exterior wall, and windows with glazing to reduces the building heat gain through envelop in order to reduce energy used for cooling and heating.
