The ever-changing workplace trends - such as the adaption of flexible office hours, hybrid working approaches, and co-working spaces, have resulted in a particular amount of creative layout outpour and flexibility in modern office designs, influencing its overall technological services.
The core service of any office design - HVAC (Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) play a significant role in office layouts. They are considered the backbone of green commercial structures. Hence, proper planning of HVAC designs should significantly contribute to cutting down energy and saving costs.
From finding the right HVAC system to its finishes and finishes, what goes behind the scenes with the architects and contractors? Read more to find out!
Which is 'the one'?
Often designers come down to the basic question - How does one select the right HVAC system? Anika Mittal Dhawan, Founder and Principal Architect, mold design studio, explains,
"Selection and design of the HVAC should be made keeping in mind the site location, orientation, facade design, occupancy, activity in the space throughout the day, materials and daylight into the space. Based on these, the appropriate system should be selected and designed according to the available space. While designing the air-conditioning system, other design factors that could help reduce HVAC load and costs are insulation of floors and walls and using insulated/ DGU glass with correct U-values. These could be part of the design to help reduce HVAC load and reduce solar gain into the building. Once the system is selected, the design will eventually be based around the floor layout and available ceiling heights."
