FENESTRATION
• L shaped design with main entrance towards North
• Longer axes along NE and NW directions
• By L shape configuration, the width of the floor plate is reduced for
the same amount of floor plate area thereby allowing natural light to
penetrate deep into the interior spaces

• The octagonal atrium has side light from the top to provide a glare
free natural lighting in interior without allowing direct heat gain from
the roof
• On the northen side , the glass solution was required to give a higher
light transmission.
