Interior Design Effectiveness Modelling for Public Buildings with BIM-Based Technology

In the process of interactive design generally through the interior design graphics to achieve customer needs, interactive design is a new type of green design system, at present, has been widely used in computer web production, industrial product design, furniture manufacturing and other fields. With the continuous development of computer technology, the human-computer interaction problem is gradually reflected. In order to effectively solve this problem, we add the concept of interaction design into the field of architectural design. The interactive design is combined with the characteristics of architectural design to analyze the architectural design. In this paper, the composition, technology platform and operation mode of the interactive design system are analyzed and studied, and the residential building technology is discussed from these three aspects. In addition, it is applied to the actual case, through the use of digital design, numerical control processing simulation experiment, image experiment and other scientific research methods, the residential building space environment design experimental study. This will also lead to reference standards for green interior design of public and industrial buildings.

Problem statement. Russia's military aggression against Ukraine destroyed and damaged a large number of houses and seriously affected the civilian infrastructure. Residential areas and objects of social infrastructure are being destroyed every day. The implementation of capital repairs, reconstruction of damaged buildings and construction of new ones does not stop even despite the escalation of the conflict. Reconstruction of war-damaged buildings becomes a priority area. For a number of objects, it will not be economically justified, but there remains a large number of residential houses, historical buildings and monuments of cultural heritage that require restoration and reconstruction. The emergency situation with high-rise buildings and other objects that are subject to reconstruction is complicated by the fact that new solutions, non-typical structural units, various modifications must be made to the design model, and strengthening of old floors and load-bearing structures must be taken into account. A complex design scheme and an increased volume of information require the introduction of modern technology at the stage of development of project documentation. The purpose of the article is to analyze the necessity of using BIM technologies in the reconstruction of buildings that were destroyed as a result of a full-scale war. Visually demonstrate the advantages of BIM for connecting engineering networks and reinforcement elements to ensure effective cooperation of different specialists, define the role of information model in the reconstruction of historical buildings, where any change in the appearance of the object must be carefully considered and reasoned.

This paper focuses on the functional characteristics of BIM technology, emphasizing the need to develop a combination of BIM technology tailored to the user’s interior design process. We utilize the hardware and software to establish the BIM technology environment, construct the interior design model using the Autodesk Revit software platform, import it into Lumion for color rendering, and utilize Navisworks Simulate software to gather project data and monitor the interior design project’s progress. Autodesk Ecotect software was used to find out how lighting affected the interior design using BIM technology. Next, an interior layout optimization model based on the improved whale algorithm was made to solve the interior layout problem, and the impact of using AI was confirmed. The data show that the error range for the daylighting coefficient using BIM technology and the old method is between 0.04 and 0.91. The old method takes 131 minutes longer than BIM technology. This means that the BIM-based lighting simulation model pre-processing process is still much more efficient than the old method. Furthermore, this paper maintains all the model’s index values above 0.68, demonstrating the model’s ability to achieve a reasonable interior space layout while simultaneously enhancing both the layout speed and the layout effect.

The article discusses the features of the architectural organization of landscaping and landscape design of residential and public buildings, as the urgency of the problem of designing and constructing buildings with the use of means to improve the environment due to the deterioration of the ecological environment in large cities is currently increasing.

With the big data of social development, the development of my country’s construction industry has gradually transitioned from a development model that simply pursues scale and speed to a new stage that focuses on urban development and people’s needs. The traditional way of expressing buildings in two-dimensional planes can no longer meet people’s needs for integrated interior design of buildings. In this regard, the purpose of this article is to conduct innovative research on architectural interior design models in the context of big data. This article first starts from reality, combs the representative domestic and international architectural interior design planning theories, and explores architectural interior design models suitable for domestic project construction. This paper proposes an integrated model of building interior design based on big data technology. This paper aims at the expression of the three-dimensional model of the building interior, combined with BIM technology, designing the architectural spatial information model from the perspective of concept and logic. For the designed building space information model, this paper starts from the traditional plane CAD data, and conducts big data research on the simplified algorithm of CAD data. Secondly, it builds the model of the special building components of the research object, and then realizes the interior design model Construct. Experimental results show that the architectural interior design model proposed in this paper can effectively manage and analyze interior design, and people’s satisfaction with design has increased by about 25%, meeting people’s needs, and providing an important reference for architectural interior design.KeywordsBig data technologyArchitectural interior design modeBIM technologyCAD data

Previous research indicated that museums have historically prioritized their formal and physical features at the expense of accommodating visitors’ needs which has negatively affected visitors’ museum experience. A shortage in interactive spatial experiences in some historical museums in Egypt led to a decrease in the rate of visits and visitor’s satisfaction. Museums’ interior design has a significant impact on people’s emotions as well as their museum experience. Furthermore, prior research has indicated that parametric design can convey emotional interactive spatial experiences when applied to different interior design elements. Such elements can include the building’s roof, floor, or walls. This research aims to create a set of guidelines for enhancing visitors’ emotional and interactive spatial experiences in historical museums using parametric interior roof design solutions. The research adopted a mixed method approach. A qualitative approach was implemented by reviewing the precedent literature. This was followed by a case study in the Egyptian context and a computer-generated model of the Egyptian Museum in Cairo was developed. Two parametric roof alternatives were tested along with the existing roof of the Egyptian Museum in Cairo by using Virtual Reality on a sample of 67 participants. The quantitative approach was achieved by distributing questionnaires among participants and analyzing the acquired data. The results showed that the application of parametric designs could develop interactive relaxing or engaging museum spatial experiences. This study could benefit architects, interior designers, and relevant specialists in the design process to enhance the museums’ spatial emotional interactive experience by using parametric design.

When the concept of space is considered at the social level, it appears as a set of relations rather than any product or object. Public service buildings, which can be divided into education, art, and health, which are essential parts of the social order, appear as areas where a service-based relationship occurs, where the buildings act as intermediaries for communication between society and the state. Public administrative service buildings, which exist to provide service to the public and consist of state-affiliated institutions, are an architectural design problem with a purpose, function, budget, and identity that are the main factors affecting the design of public buildings. These buildings also play a crucial role in the functioning of society by providing essential services and acting as a bridge between the government and the public. The architectural design of such buildings must consider not only the physical functionality and practicality but also the impact on the community and the environment. This study examines the conceptual and systematic approach to the architectural project design of a public building, the Bolu Regional Directorate of Forestry Building. This study focuses on addressing a public building design problem and the design principles of the architectural preliminary design and application projects developed.

Architect Manuel de Sola?-Morales was one of the first designers to stress the importance of public interiors – places that are used as public spaces although they might belong to a private owner.1 Examples are libraries, hospitals or shopping malls. However, included within the concept of the public interior are also publicly owned spaces such as arcades, passages and inner courtyards, as well as collective outdoor public areas that provide shelter such as bus shelters (Figure1).These are spaces that Kristiaan Borret, the former city architect for Antwerp, describes as ‘secondary public spaces’. They differ from the so called ‘primary public spaces’, that is to say the actual streets, market places and squares.2 Complex interior environments are often subject to commercial logic or developer standards, factors that tend to make them less public. The layout of public interiors ought to be considered a challenging field of design and research, but this is not always the case. Where the ‘primary public space’, in particular, has long been the focus of research within the scholarly field of urban design and urbanism, existing research into public interiors proves to be fragmented. While ‘toolboxes’ for urban planners have been established, they lack the perspectives traditionally found in the field of interior architecture and interior design, such as user-relations, atmospheric variables and furniture design.Yet these considerations are particularly relevant to the conditions found within public interiors. Besides defining the term ‘public interior’, this paper aims to contribute to the development of an interdisciplinary design approach by exploring various methods for the analysis of ‘the public interior’ in the fields of urbanism, architecture, interior design and related academic fields.

Purpose Co-design aims to strengthen design outcomes by meaningfully engaging users in design processes. To enhance architectural accessibility, there is increased interest in engaging people with disability in co-design processes. However, little is known about how co-design is implemented in the design of large-scale public buildings, what outcomes are achieved and what factors influence the meaningful participation of people with disability in architectural co-design. Design/methodology/approach A qualitative approach was employed to explore stakeholder perspectives on a co-design initiative undertaken to enhance the universal design of a civic precinct in Australia. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with nine participants – five architects, three City Council employees and one Council Access and Inclusion Advisory Committee member. Data were analysed using reflexive thematic analysis. This approach identified key themes that encapsulated participants’ experiences and perceptions of co-design with people with disability to enhance the universal design of a public building. Findings Four overarching themes were identified from the analysis: (1) Co-design is shaped by those involved; (2) Co-design must be meaningful and inclusive; (3) Co-design and universal design must be prioritised throughout design stages; and (4) Co-design leads to improved design and capacity building. Originality/value This study contributes new knowledge about the practice of co-design in the context of large-scale public architecture. It provides valuable insight into the experiences of architects, people with disability and local government stakeholders, revealing both the complexities and potential of inclusive co-design. Findings also suggest a reciprocal relationship between universal design and co-design whereby application of one approach may strengthen application of the other.

“Smart” glass, as a new material with functional and visual advantages, attracts the attention of architects and designers, opening up new opportunities for modern interiors. The growing number of projects and the lack of generalised experience have determined the relevance of the study. The aim of the work was to analyse trends in the implementation of interactive “smart” glass in the interior design of residential and public buildings, to determine its classification and functional and utilitarian capabilities in terms of forming an adaptive spatial environment. The research was based on a set of general scientific theoretical methods of cognition, which included the implementation of such methods as analysis, synthesis, classification, and generalisation. The author’s definition of the concept of “smart” glass in terms of the formation of an adaptive space was provided. Based on the analysis of practical material, “smart” glass was systematised according to its functional and utilitarian capabilities in the formation of an adaptive object-spatial environment. As a result of the work, methods for implementing various types of “smart” glass in the interior design of residential and public spaces were identified. It was found that the most common are touch and projection technologies, which form a visual and communicative environment in public spaces. In residential interiors, “smart” glass performs a predominantly utilitarian function, contributing to energy conservation and privacy. The results also confirmed the aesthetic and functional potential of “smart” glass as an element of adaptive space. Systematisation of material on the implementation of “smart” glass in modern interiors will enable Ukrainian architects and designers to apply theoretical knowledge in design practice to create interactive object-spatial environments. The presented theoretical developments can serve as a basis for predictive design solutions using certain types of “smart” glass

The Sixth Assessment Report of the IPCC highlights that global surface temperatures have risen by 1.1 °C above pre-industrial levels, with a marked increase in the frequency and intensity of extreme heat events in hot–humid regions. Buildings in these areas urgently require passive design strategies to enhance climate adaptability. Employing Zhupu Ancient Village in Chaoshan region in China as an example, this study analyzes and evaluates the wind-driven ventilation archetype and buoyancy-driven ventilation archetype of the village through integrated meteorological data analysis (ECMWF) and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. The results indicate that the traditional climate-adaptive archetype facilitates wind speeds exceeding 0.5 m/s in over 80% of outdoor areas, achieving unobstructed airflow and a discernible stack ventilation effect. Through archetype translation, the visitor center design incorporates open alleyway systems and water-evaporative cooling strategies, demonstrating that over 80% of outdoor areas attain wind speeds of 0.5 m/s during summer, thereby achieving enhanced ventilation performance. The research provides a climate-response-archetype translation-performance validation framework and practical case studies for climate-adaptive design of public buildings in hot–humid regions.

<p>Historically, there is a paradigm shift in the design and construction of public library buildings, from heavyweight construction with passive design strategies and minimal impact on the environment, to modern public library buildings with light weight design and construction. Modern public library buildings displaced the need for natural ventilation and permitted building designers to ignore solar protection. This led to a dependency on mechanical means to achieve indoor thermal comfort and allow buildings to capitalise on diminishing energy resources. Green building initiatives were developed to enhance the environmental quality of buildings by reducing their negative impacts on the natural environment. However, green buildings are problematically characterised by a high proportion of glazing. Whilst this could be beneficial in effectively illuminating green public library buildings, a high proportion of glazing also raises questions about the indoor thermal environment and occupants’ satisfaction during long periods of mild outside temperatures as increased external temperature would increase the indoor thermal temperatures and discomfort.</p>

Parametric design enables iterative and customizable design approaches for textile pattern design. This project based research aims to address the question of how parametric design may be applied to generate iterative and dynamic patterns for a textile screen. Utilizing Grasshopper and Rhino3D as a computational tools to develop a series of bespoke parametric knitting patterns (McNeel 2018; Grasshopper Development Team 2020). The patterns are generated by manipulating design parameters such as stitch and floats. The study also addresses the interplay between digital design tools and the tactile craftspersonship of textile fabrication, highlighting the integration of computation and tradition. The integration of parametric design in textile pattern designs has significant potential for enhancing creativity and innovation, including possible uses in interior design, fashion, and textile art. The study emphasizes the methods of developing the design in the computer and fabricating by hand. In this case computational tools are advancing the design and creatvie process to produce more intricate and dynamic patterns, revolutionizing the way textiles are conceptualized and created.

Energy Conservation Strategy Research for Residential Building Refurbishment in Urban area of China

Poland sees the increasing popularisation of sustainable housing and the growing awareness of the importance of sport development. A good physical condition of residents translates into effective work, whereas caring for the environment improves living standards. Introducing healthy lifestyle from an early age has the best results. Due to this fact in Poland every school has its own sports hall. The pilot programme to build swimming pools near every primary school was introduced in Lower-Silesian district and it is called ‘Dolnośląski Delfinek’ (Lower Silesian Little Dolphin). Swimming pool buildings are characterised by high demand for heat. Their operation burdens district budgets and indirectly every taxpayer. Those facilities are occasionally rented commercially to earn some money for maintenance expenses. The costs usually exceed the income of those buildings. The article discusses results of thermo-vision (infrared) tests and presents the analysis of the technical documentation of twenty eight public utility buildings located in Poland. The investigations encompass conventional, energy-saving and passive buildings. The conventional buildings described in the work are school swimming pools from the programme ‘Dolnośląski Delfinek’ (Lower-Silesian Little Dolphin), whereas energy-saving and passive buildings include office, industrial, hotel, educational and sports buildings (including an indoor swimming pool). This article aims to find the most effective design manner and energy-saving sports buildings construction such as swimming pools. The results obtained in the tests indicate the necessity of compliance with the energy-saving technology in the design and construction of public utility buildings. A conclusion arises that swimming pool buildings are the most suitable candidates for passive buildings.
