Dewan Tun Razak 1 at PWTC

has an especially generous
space of more than 7,000
square metres that can host
any large function
comfortably. It is the only
indoor hall in the heart of
Kuala Lumpur that is able to
accommodate an audience
of 10,000 guest.

Transom windows are the architectural term for windows that are small-hinged
and generally located just above other doors or windows, close to the ceiling.
The windows can be either arched or paned. Transom windows have been
common fixtures in many residences for centuries and have served to welcome
light into a home. Various benefits are associated with transom windows.

Clerestory Window
Clestory window are any high windows above eye level. The purpose is to bring
outside light, fresh air, or both into the inner space.
Historically, clerestory denoted an upper level of a Roman basilica or of the nave
of a Romanesque or Gothic church, the walls of which rise above the rooflines of
the lower aisles and are pierced with windows.
Similar structures have been used in transportation vehicles to provide additional
lighting, ventilation, or headroom.
