5 External Climatic Factors That Affect An Interior Design Project.
Dear friends, the emergence of architecture in human society has
taken a wide and distinct role in itself. Starting from early
eras where man used to live in caves, we have seen a remarkable
growth in architecture and allied fields, which includes
landscape and interior design
The recent being the use of computers and "Computer Aided
Design" in architecture, which allows a kind of perfection in
design and execution process of any building and its interiors.
In spite of all the technological advances, the primary function
of any building structure remains the same, protection from
outside environment and natural calamities.
Starting from a place to "protect yourself' from nature,
interior design has become a "status symbol". Today's interior
spaces have a two way channel, first and the obvious one is the
function and second one is aesthetical, which is a little
complex one.
It is quite obvious that the interior design of a space is
directly related to the function of the space. This means that
two spaces like a home and an office have two well defined
functions, hence it will reflect in every aspect of the interior
design solution.
But apart from the there is one more important factor that will
affect each and every aspect of the final design solution, and
that's the geographical location of the architectural structure.
A hotel building at seashore and the other one at a hill station
will have a completely different sets of problems to deal with.
Lets see in a short way what are the external factors that can
affect an interior design solution
1) Amount of direct sunlight.
Locations on the far northern or southern hemisphere receive
less amount of sunlight than those at the equator. That's why
here the building with more use of plane glass are used. Also
artificial lighting is given much importance.
2) External temperature.
External temperature directly affects the comfort level of
internal spaces. Since external walls act as a "buffer" between
internal and external climate, it is necessary to use the right
construction material for walls. Depending upon the wall
material the internal finishes also
have limitations. This is
especially true for structure that face extreme climatic ups and
downs, such as locations in the gulf countries.
Hence selecting materials that can sustain heavy climatic
changes on a daily scale is challenging.
3) Humidity and Rainfall.
Because of the salty nature of air around coastal areas extra
care is taken for building construction materials, which can
directly affect the entire budget of the project.
4)Wind Direction.
Wind direction and wind speed also has direct affect on the
interiors. Heavy winds exert a load on the external walls of the
structure, thus affecting the construction technology.
5)Land Structure and Topography.
Land structure is the nature of land on which the structure
stands. Various types of land structures include rock solid,
marshy land, etc...Topography of land is classified as plane or
a site with slope. If the site of the structure is on a hill
slope, extra precautions are taken to allow the natural flow of
rainwater that the structure might block. Depending upon the
quality of land surface the construction technology will change.
As far as interiors are concerned a well planned structure with
properly thought spaces is a must because internally the spaces
get divided into various floors.
From the above short discussion it can be said that external
factors and environment greatly affect the way structures are
built and thus directly affecting the interior qualities of the
structure.
Technological advancements have allowed us to artificially
control the internal environment of a building irrespective of
what's happening outside. But a carefully studied and well
planned architectural space can easily cut the extra cost of air
conditioning and other ventilation services.
I hope this article was informative to everyone.
