CONCLUSION
The materials used were
chosen specifically to
create a harmonic
acoustical environment.
Acoustic panels are
attached on most surfaces
to reduce echo while
allowing sounds from the
stage to be heard clearly
by the audience.

CONCLUSION
The cafeteria acts as the main entry circulation path aside
from the lobby as it is more prominent in terms of location and
its potential to perpetuate numerous human activities. As such,
the lighting within the cafeteria plays a significant role to
ensure the comfortability and perceptibility of users. From the
research, we can deduce that the multiple fenestrations along
the edges of the cafeteria provides the space with substantial
amount of natural lighting where as artificial lighting is only
partially needed to light up spaces where light is unable to
reach. From evening onwards however, the space becomes
dependent on artificial lights positioned in the cafeteria which
is not sufficient and thus may appear very dim.
