1.0 Introduction Medan Pasar
Figure 1 shows the site plan and the sun path of the site.
The site is a pedestrianised square has contrasting visuals, between modern bank buildings and old art-deco buildings. The modern buildings which are tall would provide shade to the square at the middle of Medan Pasar while the older buildings mostly consist of 3-4 storeys. However, due to the large area of the plaza as well as the surrounded older buildings, the plaza can be scorchingly hot during the morning and the afternoon.
1.1 Project Introduction The site not only consists of such contradicting building styles, the communities that are occupying the site is also very diverged. There are white collar locals and also migrant workers. The purpose of the library is to act as a platform to integrate among the communities and also provide a space to stop by for the people. The design of the library is to conceal the activities and the internal spaces, to trigger the interest of the visitor on site towards the library. There are different experiences in a variety of spaces in the library. to cater to different user groups.
Figure 2 shows the overall section of the library and the spaces chosen.

2.0 Lighting Analysis Daylight Factor is a ratio that represents the amount of illumination available indoors relative to the illumination present outdoors at the same time under overcast skies. It is used in architecture to assess the internal natural lighting levels as perceived on the working plane or surface, in order to determine if there is sufficient natural lighting for the occupants of the space to carry out their normal duties. Daylight Factor, DF = internal illuminance,Ei /external illuminance, Eo x 100%

2.1 Space A: Computer Room
First floor plan Figure 3 and 4 shows the overall floor plan of the chosen space.
2.11 Space A Daylight Analysis The computer room is a space for the white collar locals to dwell, and temporary to escape from the reality on site. The reason of choice is that this space is designed to be slightly darker than it is supposed to be. It is located facing the back lane and only has a small opening accessing the view of the back alley. Therefore, it needs artificial lighting to help to regulate the brightness of the space.

Light Contour Diagram
Figure 6 shows the light contour diagram of the computer room in daylight condition.
Analysis: The space which is a computer room which supposed to allow natural light to flow in to reduce eye damage while viewing the computer, has a daylight factor of 3.1%. A percentage of 3.1 considered as a bright room, and a natural illuminance of 620 lux which is slightly exceeding the standard requirement in 200 lux due to the large opening facing east. Therefore, frit glass is used for the opening to reduce discomfort glare in that space.

2.21 Space B Daylight Analysis The book store aims to be a space for interactions among the communities. Therefore it is supposed to be a bright and cheerful space. The reason of choice is that the bookstore is located on the most top floor and have a lot of glass opening which allows natural lighting.

Light Contour Diagram
Figure 10 shows the light contour diagram of the book store in daylight condition.
Analysis: The space is a bookstore which located at the most top floor has a daylight factor of 12%, and a natural illuminance of 2400 lux which is considered as very bright, that is possible to bring glare problem to the users in the space. However, with the help of artificial light during the evening would enhance the ambience of the space to the users.
3.0 Artificial Lighting Analysis Lumen Method Lumen method is the quantity of light (illuminance, lux) reaching a certain surface, which is a main consideration in designing lighting system. To determine the number of lamps that should be installed for a given area or room, which can be calculated by,
N=
Where, -
ExA F x UF x MF
N= number of lamps required E= illuminance level required (lux) A= area at working plane height (m2) F= average luminous flux from each lamp (lm) UF= an allowance for the light distribution of the luminaire and the room surfaces MF= an allowance for reduced light output because of deterioration and dirt
Room Index is the ratio of room plan area to half wall area between working and luminaire planes, which can be calculated by,
Room index, RI =
LxW Hm x (L+W)
Where, - L = length - W = width Hm = mounted height of fitting above the working plane
