Why should the mall design the atrium?

The design of atrium is applied in many companies or shopping malls, but why build atrium? What are the benefits of building an atrium? In fact, you can feel it intuitively. Take the shopping mall as an example. A shopping mall with an atrium first gives the impression that it is bright, then it gives the impression that the space is large enough, and finally it gives the impression that it is atmospheric. Shopping malls without atrium design will appear crowded, dark and even a little depressed. Even if the interior space is large, it can't be displayed. This is the characteristic that atrium can give to architecture. Just how to decorate the atrium? Let's find out.

First, you need to know what an atrium is. Technically speaking, it is an alternative courtyard designed inside the building. If it is a house, it can be regarded as a patio. At first, the word was the source and courtyard, which played the role of letting sunlight pass through. Later, it was widely used in shopping malls or some big companies. The main function is to transmit light, and the potential effect is to play the role of facade.

Atrium design description

Taking the atrium design of this hotel as an example, the roof is designed with tempered glass, and the three-story building and the wall are basically made of glass, so that the sunlight can be projected into the building to the maximum extent. Because this is the atrium design of the hotel, some leisure elements will be added on the basis of bright elements, such as the design of the pool in the picture, the design of the dining table by the pool, and the design of some trees, which will be close to nature to the greatest extent and give people who come to the hotel for accommodation and dining the most comfortable life enjoyment.

The atrium to be introduced below is an atrium in a shopping mall, which adopts the design of widening the space upwards. Although the area of the whole atrium may not be particularly large, the skylight above it is designed to protrude layer by layer, which almost protrudes the height of two or three floors. Together with the dark gold decoration, it gives the shopping mall a very fashionable and gorgeous feeling.

Finally, I will introduce a school atrium design, which is similar to the design concept of other shopping malls. After entering from the gate, you can see a small atrium surrounded by a circular corridor. There are many seats in the circular corridor for students to learn to read, and the lighting effect of the atrium can provide the greatest learning comfort.

Of course, the design concept of atrium is to increase the lighting of the whole building, and then what needs to be considered is how to design the maximum lighting effect from the limited area, and at the same time, improve the atrium design according to the application of the building. Of course, atrium design is mainly for business, and small atrium design can also be considered for dimly lit houses.
