Abstract

In hot, arid regions like Jacobabad, Pakistan, military barracks must be sustainable and energy-efficient. This study investigates architectural techniques to improve energy efficiency while maintaining the comfort of military soldiers. The research is guided by a systematic process that includes experimental design, climate assessment, case study analysis, and energy performance modelling. Case studies and climate analyses are crucial elements in detecting environmental issues like excessive heat and sun radiation. The Hourly Analysis Program (HAP) and Building Information Modeling (BIM) are used in energy performance modelling to assess the effects of ventilation, shading, insulation, and orientation. Materials, window locations, and shading strategies are evaluated using a design of experiments (DOE) framework. The integration of renewable energy sources, especially solar photovoltaic panels, and passive cooling techniques are given top priority in this study. Practicality is ensured by validation and optimization, which results in a framework for military accommodations that use less energy and are more sustainable in harsh environments.

Abstract

The outpatient area is important in the hospital because it provides care and services to patients with complex and high-standard operational flows. Medical personnel must be able to work according to professional, operational, and service standards. The factors considered are the accuracy and speed of service to patients. For this reason, the layout of the nurse station used by medical personnel plays an important role in the patient service process. This study uses a qualitative method with an inductive-descriptive discussion. Data were obtained through literature studies. The results of the literature study are variables that can be developed for further research, which are also the objectives of this study. The study's results explain the relationship between the effectiveness of the nurse station layout in the outpatient area and the performance of medical personnel. It can enrich existing theories and become recommendations for arranging the layout of nurse stations in hospitals.

Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of tropical architectural elements in maintaining thermal comfort in the Kobuang Limo House, a traditional Malay dwelling in Riau, Indonesia. Employing an embedded mixed-method approach, the research integrates field measurements and interviews with climate-based simulations. Thermal comfort was evaluated using Effective Temperature (ET), based on SNI 03-6572-2001, incorporating air temperature, humidity, and wind speed. A three-day field measurement in December 2024 showed that the hipped roof, singap ventilation, wall openings, and raised floors contributed to passive cooling, although corrugated zinc roofing increased indoor temperatures during the day. To extend the analysis over an annual cycle, statistical monthly climate data from BMKG were used in combination with deviation-based correction factors to simulate indoor conditions. Results indicate that ET values remained within the optimal to slightly warm comfort categories throughout the year, with peak values observed in bedrooms and kitchens during the dry season. The findings emphasize the adaptive performance of tropical architectural design and suggest improvements in insulation and cross-ventilation strategies.

Abstract

Variations in interior elements, such as colour, lighting, spatial scale, and exhibition layout, can create distinct spatial atmospheres that influence how visitors perceive and behave in gallery settings. This study investigates the relationship between interior spatial qualities and visitor movement in the Indonesian National Gallery. Employing a qualitative observational approach, the research involved direct documentation of visitor paths, time spent in each room, types of activities, and spatial preferences. Eight gallery rooms were evaluated based on observable interior characteristics, including ceiling and wall colours, lighting contrast, spatial layout, and display arrangement. The findings reveal that certain interior qualities, such as smooth lighting contrast, open circulation, and balanced display arrangements, encourage more extended stays and interactive behaviors like lingering and photography. In contrast, high visual contrast, clustered displays, or enclosed layouts may prompt visitors to move more quickly through the space. This study also demonstrates the value of combining qualitative spatial judgments with behavioural observations to explore how design elements influence visitor experience. While exploratory, the method provides a framework for further research in evaluating gallery design to create more engaging and emotionally resonant spatial experiences.

Abstract

Lasem, Central Java, reflects a rich blend of Javanese and Chinese heritage, offering both opportunities and challenges in cultural tourism and preservation. This study explores how online customer feedback reveals visitor perceptions of Lasem’s architectural and cultural elements, particularly in relation to Batik and Peranakan architecture. Using data from 13 Google Maps-reviewed businesses, the study employs quantitative and qualitative methods, analyzing star ratings, review lengths, keyword frequency, and thematic patterns. Findings show that visitor satisfaction is closely tied to cultural authenticity. Positive reviews often emphasize appreciation for heritage experiences and the adaptive reuse of historic buildings, while lower ratings highlight infrastructure issues such as water and room quality. The results underscore the role of vernacular spaces in shaping meaningful tourist experiences and highlight the need to balance heritage preservation with the expectations of modern visitors. This research offers insights for improving heritage site management and supporting sustainable cultural tourism in small historic towns.

Abstract

The Philippines, a predominantly Catholic country, holds religious monumental architecture (RMA) as a vital part of its cultural and spiritual heritage. This notwithstanding, little academic focus has been given to the meanings conveyed through such structures. This study examines the Porta Mariae in Naga City using Greimassian semiotics, a framework built upon structuralist semiotics for decoding architectural communication. This neoclassical arch, built a little over a decade ago to commemorate 300 years of Bikolano devotion to Our Lady of Peñafrancia and inspired by Roman triumphal arches and Catholic holy doors, has become a prominent city landmark and integral to Catholic rituals in Naga. This paper interprets the structure as a symbolic communication system, uncovering layers of meaning conveyed to pilgrims, devotees, and visitors that extend beyond its visual and architectural appeal. The investigation ultimately reveals the Porta Mariae as a dynamically communicative artifact embodying profound religious, cultural, and historical meanings, serving as a living symbol of Bicolano faith, heritage, and enduring identity.

Abstract

This study investigates the material circularity of modular wall panel designs using bamboo, wood, and light-gauge steel (LGS) as primary components. Through a comparative analysis of 9 representative panel prototypes, the research evaluates embodied energy (EE), recycling efficiency, and percentage of discarded material under a cradle-to-gate perspective to assess environmental performance. The study examines the relative circularity performance of bamboo, wood, and steel-framed panels. Furthermore, the research examined material configurations that best balance structural function and circularity. Key limitations include the modest sample size (9 prototypes), the educational provenance of prototypes (course-based fabrication), reliance on cradle-to-gate accounting rather than full life-cycle cost or in-service performance data, and uncertainty ranges in embodied-energy databases. Results indicate that biologically composed panels, such as bamboo and wood, demonstrate significantly lower EE and negligible discarded waste, aligning well with circular economy principles. These caveats are discussed and used to frame recommendations for further LCA, long-term performance testing, and scaled prototyping.
