Synopsis:
Horizontal circulation in a building may comprise access routes through open
plan areas, walkways, corridors and lobbies. The overall arrangement of access routes
should be logical, understandable, usable, and as direct as possible in terms of
providing access to key facilities. Travel distance should be minimized, although this
of course will depend on the nature and size of the building. Well-designed building
layouts, with clear circulation routes that are easy to follow benefit everybody. The
width of walkways should follow the guidance for corridors below. However. It is
and sta. Many have engaged together in an iterative process of design research
suggests modications to earlier conceptions of how health-care environments should
be shaped, opening the way for design renements that, treated as hypotheses, help
guide further research.
Critique and application:
This article study about the therapeutic role of gardens and their place as part
of a restorative health care environment it suggest that building should have a
relationship to the environment that specific location, micro climate, and ecological
context. Built environment should support, maintain, and even enhance the nature and

hydrochloride, or shabu, in East Asia, according to the latest United Nations World
Drug Report. The state department also disclosed that 2.1 percent of Filipinos aged 16
to 64 were using shabu, and domestic consumption of methamphetamine and
marijuana continued to be the main drug threats in the Philippines. Thats why
president Rodrigo Duterte plan to establish rehabilitation centers in different regions
throughout the country, the rehabilitation centers will be set up for drug users who
would voluntarily surrender and they also said that The campaign against drugs is also
supported by the Communist Party of the Philippines and different local government
units Known for his active campaign against illegal drugs, President Rodrigo Duterte
expressed his intentions to set up regional rehabilitation centres across the country.
According to reports, this rehabilitation center will particularly be for those drug users
who voluntarily turn themselves in to authorities.
Synopsis:
Based on the article Passive Cooling involves designing buildings for cooling
load avoidance. Design strategies that minimize the need for mechanical cooling
system include proper window placement and day lighting design, selection of
appropriate glazing for windows and skylights, proper shading of glass when heat
gains are not desired, use of light colored materials for the building envelope and roof,
careful siting and orientation decisions and good landscaping design. Install fixed
shading devices, using correctly sized overhangs or porches, or design the building to
be self-shading. Fixed shading devices, which are design into a building, will shade
windows throughout the solar cycle. Plant trees or bushes to shade the windows at the
right time of day and season. Deciduous vegetation is often an attractive and
inexpensive form of shading, because it follows the local seasons, not the solar
calendar. Design the building to take advantage of natural ventilation. Natural
ventilation uses the passive stack effect and pressure differentials to bring fresh,
cooling air through a building without mechanical systems.
Title: 14 patterns of Biophilic design: Improving Health & Well-Being in the Built
Environment
Author: Catherine Ryan
Reference:http://www.terrapinbrightgreen.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/14Patterns-of-Biophilic-Design-Terrapin-2014p.pdf
Synopsis:
Biophilic design can reduce stress, enhance creativity and clarity of thought,
improve our well-being and expedite healing; as the world population continues to
urbanize these qualities are ever more important. Theorists, research scientists, and
design practitioners have been working for decades to define aspects of nature that
most impact our satisfaction with the built environment. 14 Patterns of Biophilic
Design articulates the relationships between nature, human biology and the design of
the built environment so that we may experience the human benefits of biophilia in
RESEARCH FOCUS
The Drug Rehabilitation center will focus on Biophilic Design in which refers
to the design of buildings and spaces based on nature, which will be effective for the
patients. It can be applied in a variety of contexts allowing growth of both people and
environment. Human psychology clearly benefits from contact with nature, and
inviting nature into our buildings is the ideal way to insure the both the continuation of our
modern lifestyle and assuagement our more primitive needs.
