Artificial lighting
The most abundant light source in the studios of
city campus is the diffused lighting through the
numerous casement windows.

Since the studios are used for architectural work

like drafting and model making, a sufficent amount
of lighting is required
Natural lighting
Despite abundance of artificial lighting, the studio receives
a decent amount of natural light through windows.

The studios on the first floor recieve a lot more daylight

due to larger windows from atleast three directions and
direct sunlight.

The ground floor studios, specially the 4th year studio,

despite its numerous windows does not receive much
daylight, as several windows fulfil their ventilation purpses
more fully then they provide light
