TROPICAL DESIGN
Passive design is low-energy design
that uses a building’s morphology
and construction to maintain a
comfortable temperature within
the building

PASSIVE
SYSTEMS
1. BUILDING
CONFIGURATION
Building Envelop serves as
climatic mesh that filters the
outside environment to create
a proper and comfortable
indoor environment.
2. BUILT FORM
ORIENTATION
The purpose of orientation is
to provide residents a
comfortable living space
throughout the year even
under severe undesirable
weather conditions.
3. FAÇADE DESIGN
Facades often incorporate
operable windows or
strategically positioned
openings to facilitate cross-
ventilation and natural airflow.
4. SOLAR CONTROL DEVICES
Horizontal Sunshades are best
applied - North & South facing sides
of a building .

Vertical Fins are best applied - East


and West facing sides of a building.

do not run along North-South or


East-West axis, - be protected by
both horizontal and vertical shades –
Egg-crate sunshade.
5. PASSIVE DAYLIGHT
CONCEPTS
Passive daylighting strategies
promote the quantity and even
distribution of daylight
throughout a building by
collecting natural light and
reflecting it into darker areas
of the building.
DAY-LIGHTING
It is the practice of placing windows, skylights, other
openings, and reflective surfaces so that sunlight can
provide effective internal lighting.
5. PASSIVE DAYLIGHT Daylight Factor (DF). The numerical ratio use to described
CONCEPTS the relationship between indoor and outdoor daylight
illuminance.

Daylight Zoning. The process of grouping various spaces


in a building with similar luminous requirements into a
daylight zone, thereby enabling design and control cost
saving.

Aperture wall. A wall where the window/opening is


located.

2.5H guideline. Estimate how far into a room usable


daylight derived from the sidelight will reach. This rule
suggest that significant levels of daylight will only reach
into the room a distance of 2.5 times the height of the
aperture wall

(Kwok & Grondzik, 2007).

J. LIGHT WALL COLORS

SUN SCOOPS
6. THROUGH SITE LAYOUT

Various elements and features may


exist within a site prior to the
construction of a building. As with
any proper approach to design, a
diligent assessment of the site must
be done in order to evaluate the
various site conditions and elements
that will contribute to the shape of
the building.
7. VERTICAL LANDSCAPING
Vertical landscaping is the
application of vegetation
within and around the façade
of buildings particularly those
within dense urban areas.

8. USE OF WIND AND
NATURAL VENTILATION
Facades often incorporate
operable windows or
strategically positioned
openings to facilitate cross-
ventilation and natural airflow.
