The design course aims to impart understanding of functional requirements, lighting, ventilation, thermal comfort and climatic response of built form including orientation of building with respect to sun and wind. It prepares learners to understand built form and to explore the passive energy and design methods to create passive architecture. Learners shall demonstrate understanding gained through analysis and present design evaluation using graphical techniques and demonstrate the understanding of building rules and other regulatory measures through two design projects in given contexts. Emphasis shall be placed on the study of building codes, elements of climate and passive methods and translating these into an appropriate built form References: 1. Ching D. K.
