Design Concept

The techno hub is designed to facilitate collaboration among users and developers of each business core. Its purpose is to establish a permanent public source of well-defined concepts that can be conducted for social and business exchange towards development. The main concepts used are business characteristics, international collaboration and entrepreneurial support system. Business characteristics are capabilities and resources possessed by a company. International collaboration is seen as a partnership between two firms from different countries with the aim of commercializing knowledge. Last, an entrepreneurial support system includes all programs and instruments that the mother university offers its spin-offs to facilitate growth and development. Modern design is very much incorporated as with this design flows the whole form, function and character of the structure. It would also be a self-sustaining factor that would stand generally characterized by simplification of form and creation of ornament from the structure and theme of the building. The combination of a water splat form of the roof of the common space provided for all the users would show a natural form and lessen the sharp looks of being modern. Both this concepts would help to develop a hub through technology by sustaining every users and the environments need without compromising the ability of the natural habitat to deplete. Yet, it both serves this aspects by gaining it character being efficient and sustainable through the means of developments in architecture design.

energy efficiency concept


Saving energy at every step, reducing it to the bare minimum. It is very essential nowadays to provide rising structures the goal to help and reduce the natural environments depletion. As with this main concept is provided to sustain the structures needs and a tool to a step ahead in renewing the environment we have. -Ice storage for buildings cooling system / Chiller Optimization The ice storage tank for the buildings cooling system would be installed. The balls filled with water and food-grade glycol discharges would run into the pipes to cool the whole building. Bio-Mechanical Pod System Produces Fresh Air The Active Phytoremediation Wall System is a modular system of pods, housing hydroponic plants. Its main purpose is to encourage airflow and contribute to the quality of life through its air cleaning capacities Other methods to be used for sustaining the structures needs: -Glazed Units with low Light Transmission & low Relative Heat Gain -Orientation of glazing to maximize natural light and minimum heat load -Rain water harvesting for utility use -green roof concept -Solid waste generation s

design considerations
SAFETY & SECURITY Safety & Security is a very important factor to consider. It helps to define the control of the recognition of hazards to achieve the acceptable level of risk. This consideration states the condition of being protected and its safeties within the whole structure. AESTHETICS The structure is not only of just catering the need of the user & both the structure. It portrays the appreciation of life and emotional values of the primary users as well as the beauty of the structure itself. It would also show how Filipino culture & architecture would be competitive worldwide. VENTILATION This factor includes both the exchange of air to the outside as well as circulation of air within each part of the structure. It would also help to control indoor & outdoor air quality throughout the structure. FUNCTION It involves the creative manipulation & coordination of each space that would cater all the needs of the users in a simple way, removing all possible obstructions that would disturb the users. ZONING Zoning is very important. The purpose of zoning is to enable residents and users to escape safely in case of emergency and subdividing the whole building for effective crowd management. ORIENTATION A structure's optimal orientation is usually a compromise between its function, location, and the prevailing environmental factors of solar radiation, light, humidity, and wind that make up the site's microclimate. ENVIRONMENT Minimizing the destruction of the environment is one of the outmost considerations to follow. It encompasses the interaction between human, architecture and all living species of an environment. Structures are limited to preserve and promote green architecture and passive cooling. ENERGY CONSERVATION Energy conservation can be achieved through increased efficient energy use and with the use of energy absorptive materials, in conjunction with decreased energy consumption and/or reduced consumption from conventional energy sources. Elements to be considered include window placement and glazing type, thermal insulation, thermal mass, and shading. Passive solar design techniques can be applied most easily to new arising structures.

design objectives
-The main goal of the project is to stimulate and accelerate the creation of technology-based innovative start-ups with high growth potential emerging from universities and research centers. -To design a techno hub both conducive to environment and the users. -To come up with an innovative design that will promote and strengthen information technology business and serves as income generator to the area. -To create modernization and increase the values of the properties in the zone. -To create a built environment that are comfortable, safe, and productive -To provide a high quality environment and innovative services to attract potential academic entrepreneurs and to accelerate the process of sustainable spinoff formation Supermarket
