RESEARCH ABSTRACT: This study explores the impact of humidity on coastal residential spaces and proposes strategies for effective management. Key interventions include damp proofing ceilings and walls to prevent moisture-related issues and implementing methods for controlling indoor humidity levels. The research emphasizes the importance of an optimized air conditioning layout, ensuring proper placement of supply and return vents. Additionally, it highlights the need for sun protection treatments on materials near windows to minimize heat gain, while also addressing the adjustment of tones and lighting to reflect the ocean's influence on indoor atmosphere. Finally, the study advocates for material choices and design elements that harmonize with the surrounding environment, promoting a cohesive living experience.
CHALLENGE: Houses near the sea must tackle humidity's impact on living spaces. This includes damp proofing ceilings and walls to prevent moisture issues and managing indoor humidity effectively. The air conditioning layout should ensure proper placement of supply and return vents. Materials close to windows need sun protection to minimize heat gain, while ocean-reflecting tones and lighting should enhance the indoor atmosphere. Lastly, material choices and design should harmonize with the surrounding environment for a cohesive experience.
