Each of you will select two sites from the selections of site provided (one from international, one from Indonesia). No individual in a group can have the same site.
Within your selected site, please analyse the microclimate in it and determine the most optimum form of a 6-floor building with 600-1500 sqm GFA. You would
need to determine its position on site, and a rough estimate on the form’s surface opening and transparency. Changes on the total floor area is allowed with clear argument regarding its optimum performance.
You will need to demonstrate your understanding on reading the context and basic application on passive systems. Please explain your form and all relevant considerations in 2 pages of A4 in .pdf format (for each site).
