KOSEN-KMUTT: COGNITIVE INSTITUTION

The project KOSEN - KMUTT, “Cognitive Institution '' is intended for KOSEN high school design, which consists of three main academic programs; agricultural engineering, automation engineering, and biochemistry engineering. We corporate the school’s pedagogy; problem-based learning which consists of three main parts, Theory, Practice, and Hands-On to building design, and helps students to maximize their learning through senses, experiences, and thoughts.

CONCEPT

The concept "Cognition" is the mental process of gaining knowledge and understanding through the senses, experience, and thought. These senses, experiences, and thoughts are kindled by Problem based learning through the main parts which are theory, practice, and hands-on.

The building consists of three main parts; theory, practice, and handson, which is the pedagogy of the school that represents problembased learning. All the 3 programs; automation, biochemistry, and agricultural- engineering are divided into each floor so that the students in each program can go through the process where they study the problem, in theory, practice the solution and apply the solution in hands-on.

INITIAL DIAGRAM PROGRAM ARRANGEMENT

The initial model shows the interlocking of the three colored blocks that represent the three main programs; Theory, Practice, and Hands-On which are the pedagogy of the KOSEN school that will maximize the potential in students.

The three blocks that represent the pedagogy of the school are interconnected together by the programs, forming a courtyard that becomes a median that encourages students to interact with each other more.

BUILDING OUTCOME

Flat roofs on the lower part of the building become rooftop gardens for students to use and enjoy the view around the school. The shading device is also provided to control sunlight during the daytime.

CLIMATIC RESPONSE DIAGRAM

The climatic response diagram shows the natural wind enters the building cr the system of natural ventilation. Whe wind enters the building, the hot air w up because of the paved courtyard in middle. The courtyard also acts as a c to allow sunlight to enter. Moreover, the shading device that ins the building can minimize and control sunlight, especially on the west side.

SUN PATH

The sun rises on the east side and goes down on the west side. The common spaces, learning spaces, workshops, and laboratories are located eastward and westward to provide natural light which improves alertness and focus that leads to better academic performances. Moreover, shading devices control the natural light, since these sides can be hot. A pond is designed on the west side to cool the area.

WIND PATH

The natural wind mostly comes from South and South-East directions, where the workshop is located to provide proper ventilation in the room. The main entrance is also facing south to let the airflow into the building for ventilation.

AREA

ACCESSIBILITY

The building can be accessed from all sides of the building. The main entrance is facing south while the east side is the service entrance. The car drop-off will be at the main entrance and the parking lot is located on the east side of the building. The loading area is located at the back of the building on the east side, this is where the trucks unload the things. Students usually go biking and walking, the bike route is along the green dotted line with the bike parking in front of the building. While the pedestrian route is along the red dotted line.

OFFICE VISIT

The main users of the building are KOSEN students, teachers, and staff. Based on our observation, most of the students ride their bikes to school from their dormitory and arrives at 9 am. They mostly spend their time in class and have their meals at the main canteen of the campus, and the dormitory’s canteen. They also buy materials from the stationary shops around the campus. Moreover, college students from the campus also visit the KOSEN building. This analysis is integrated into the design by having the entrance face towards the KMUTT building to provide a connection and interaction between the KOSEN students and college students.

PROGRAM ANALYSIS

The programs are arranged according to the pedagogical approach of the school which is problem-based learning that is divided into 3 group programs which are Theory, Practice, and Hand on. The theory program will include lecture rooms, an enclosed study, a gallery, and a library. The practice program includes the laboratories and the hands-on consists of a workshop and common spaces. These programs will be distributed through each level of the building according to the engineering majors (automation engineering, biochemistry engineering, and agricultural engineering).

The zoning diagram shows how the programs are arranged on each floor with three main colors; blue for practice, yellow for hands-on, and pink for theory, which is our design concept of how we wanted to represent the school’s pedagogy. The other two colors; are green for the service area, while grey is the common space. The programs are distributed on each level equally, where all the 3 grouped programs are visible on each floor and designated to each of the engineering programs of the KOSEN school.

ITE PLAN & ANDSCAPE DESIGN

he site plan responds to the site nalysis in how we considered the un path to place trees or plants hich is important to protect the sers from natural sunlight and eat during the daytime, especially n the west and east side. Since many KOSEN students use cycles to come to school, there a bike path and bike parking vailable in front of the building. here will be a pond with wooden oor where students can spend heir time together, and a sunken utdoor active learning space to upport their creativity on the west de. The walkway from the north de to the building is also troduced so users can access he building from the back. The wn for outdoor active learning pace is also there where students an get the experiences through ctivities like plays, projects, and xperiments.

GROUND FLOOR PLAN

The ground floor plan shows how the users enter the building through the main entrance on the south to the welcoming area then they will meet the gallery, workshop, library, and courtyard at the center of the building which leads the users to the landscape of the site. Moreover, the service area is also provided along with the service drop-off area.

CORRIDORS

This shows the circulation of the users in this KOSEN school. The users will circulate around the corridor area to go to the class, and to the labs. The iconic part of this circulation is the courtyard that starts from the ground level and continues to the upper floor, providing natural sunlight during the daytime to the users. Moreover, this corridor encourages students to engage in social interactions.

e of this KOSEN design is reinforced concrete columns, flat slabs, and at the vertical circulation. The structural system of the building is flat olumn system where the reinforced concrete slab is supported by the lumns directly without the support of the beams. It will directly transfer the supporting columns. Then, transferring all gravitational load to the on below the underground level.

he materials used are: reinforced concrete has very good strength in well as compression. It is durable, resilient, low maintenance, and energy mber cladding is used for outdoor decking and the exterior walls of the White glazed brick most often refers to ceramic glazed brick. It is easy to durability, and has polychromatic production; Glass glazing for natural ermal insulation; Terrazzo flooring is durable. Since the building mostly s; it will look especially good in areas that get a lot of sun and it resist and limestone pavements are low maintenance and have high-density co o s t fewer
