1. Building Façade
Design Objectives
The main lobby is a transitional space between the building
exterior and interior, it should not only offer a great first
impression. It should also aid visual and physical orientations
for a smoother circulation flow.
The lobby should be perceived welcoming and cozy for social
communications and interactions.
Create a visual appealing space for public by complementing the
architecture appropriately with the use of lighting patterns.

Avoid glare (direct glare from seeing bare lamps; reflected
glare from improper aiming angles)
Provide transient adaptations
Provide sufficient illumination for task lights (reading
directory and graphics on alcove)

Integration of daylight into the space
Different lighting should correspond to different needs
4. Training Room
Design Objectives
The training room is a typical classroom for learning/training. It
is essential to provide adequate illumination on both faces and
objects.
On top of sufficient illuminance level, building up visually
appealing environment which aid better concentration and
enthusiasm on learning tasks is even more important.
There should be two zones of lighting in order to create another
lighting mode suitable for video-presentations.
