Learning Outcomes

Through this project, I have learnt to analyse and discuss in depth on the selected research area based on the selected building, within the framework of Contextual Architecture. As such I am able to identify significant elements of Contextual Architecture through investigation on the selected building, produce, orally and in writing, a critical interpretation of Contextual Architecture of the selected building. 

 

My research topic has given me insight on how the thermal comfort of a building is affected by the method of construction in which my case is using traditional Malay houses as reference. Through this study, I have learnt that a building's thermal comfort is affected by a lot of factors with each factor complimenting the other. I have learnt to include the design into my next project.
