Project 02 I n t e g r a t i o n P r o j e c t
Submission date: Week 14
Marks : 30% of final marks
Introduction
This project aims to integrate students' understanding of the principles of lighting and acoustics in the
context their final design project of studio 5. It encompasses advanced daylighting systems and the
integration of electrical lighting, strategies for noise management and room acoustics (where necessary).
Objectives
The objectives of this project are as follows:
To be able to show understanding of lighting and acoustics principles in their final design.
To be able to solve design problems in relation to sustainability issues (natural lighting, site
analysis).
To be able to design spaces incorporating lighting and acoustics (when necessary).
Learning Outcomes
Produce site analysis which document, interpret and analyze the site context in relation to lighting
and acoustics.
Identify and analyze functional needs through case studies to inform of lighting and acoustics.
Tasks
Each student is required to incorporate one (1) A2 board for Lighting Integrated Design and one (1) A2
board for Acoustics Integrated Design and to be submitted in a clear folder (front/back). Within your building
design, you are required to identify spaces which require artificial lighting and day-lighting. As for the
acoustic, you are required to identify spaces to integrate your external noises and internal noises.
Integration must be solution based and you are advised to incorporate visuals, diagrams and renderings
using any environmental design analysis tools in your presentation board(s). Calculations to resolve your
design integrations solutions must be attached in A4 and submitted together. All kind of proposals need to
have a good justification.
Submission Requirements
Two (2) numbers of a ‘well composed’ A2 boards together with a clear folder each and an A4 report on the
calculations. Both the boards and report are to be submitted together. (Report covers have to be according
to the colours for the respective tutors. (Mr. Azim – green, Mr. Sivaraman – yellow, Mr. Edwin Chan – blue)
