SITE CONTEXT AND LOCATION AFFETS ON THE ORIENTATION OF
BUILDING
AND SOCIAL ANALLYSIS DETERMINES FUNCTIONS AND USES
USING SITE TOPOGRAPHY TO DEFINE THE MAIN ENTRANCES AND

PS. :STREET DIRECTION THAT AROUNDED THE SITE CAN AFFECT ON
THIS.
USING COURTS/PLAZA TO CONNECT ZONINGS AND INCREAS
COMMUNICATION
USING ATRIUM TO DEFINE ENTRANCES
TERRACES COURTS AND SKYLIGHTS HELP IN NATURAL VENTILATION
AND LIGHT
RESPECT SITE’S CONTEXT AND CULTURE
USE VERNACULAR MATERIALS IN FINISHING AND USE A SUITABLE
CONSTRUCTION SYSTEM
WHICH SERVE THE DESIGN AND SUITES THE BUILDING SPANS
