Course Objectives Deepen the knowledge and sensitivity of design principles towards building performances. Raise the awareness of students on the importance of the relationship between context and environmental design of the interiors as well as on the importance of lighting, acoustics, thermal comfort and fire safety issues.
Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • explain information on basic concepts on architectural lighting, acoustics and thermal comforts
  • describe key design issues regarding passive (natural)-active (mechanical) techniques
  • discuss the effects on calculating the preliminary stage of the design process
  • classify materials used in interiors
  • discuss the effects of environmental design principles on user comfort.
Course Description Architectural lighting, acoustics, and thermal comforts. Passive(natural)active(mechanical) techniques, basic concepts, materials, measurement of criteria, economical way of usage, and tremendous effects on interior and exterior spaces which must be considered at the earliest stage of the designing process.
