Enhancement of Biophilic Design Through the Use of Local Bamboos for Façade Design of Senate Buildings
Contemporary Senate Buildings in Nigeria frequently utilize curtain wall façade systems that, despite their modern appearance, often perform inefficiently in tropical climates. Intense solar radiation, high temperatures, and humidity result in excessive heat gain, glare, and increased dependence on mechanical cooling. These challenges highlight the need for façade strategies that are both environmentally responsive and supportive of occupant well-being. Biophilic design promotes reconnecting...
