dc.description.abstract | Post Occupancy Evaluation (POE) is an established process for assessing the thermal
performance of buildings already constructed and in use. It could be argued that POE tends to
focus predominantly on assessing whether a combination of building fabric and the mechanical
and passive systems meet design aspirations for minimising occupant or user energy use for
heating and cooling, and maximising thermal comfort and indoor air quality. Yet, POE rarely
assesses the sensory experiences of the building users and their perceptions of how well a space
works for its intended function. It is also rare to find a POE approach that gives equal weight to
the technical performance of buildings and the satisfaction of inhabitants and their aesthetic
experience of the architecture (Tweed, 2017). POE for Architects needs to be a different
approach that incorporates user sensory ‘feelings’ that are informed by sight, smell, hearing,
touch, and taste. The first author of this paper is an Architect with 30+ years’ experience, is
award winning for his school design in Wales and works for Stride Treglown Architects in Cardiff.
He is investigating the sensory experiences of buildings users in some of the schools that he has
designed and that are in use. The data generated by this project will be used to enlighten his
and their design of future school in Wales. Furthermore, this D.SBE project is timely since there
are many new schools which are to be designed and constructed in Wales over the next ten
years. Therefore, the Sensory POE approach developed during this work could enhance the
services that Stride Treglown offers its clients, with a possible way in which clients can better
understand their buildings in order that the users not only are more productive and happy, but
also appreciate the architectural delight of a building and its spaces. | en_US |
