Rediscovering the "Atrium Effect" in Terms of the European Green Deal’s Objectives. Case Study

In terms of the European Green Deal’s objectives, an environmentally responsible and climate responsive architecture seems to be fully desirable in the next decades. From the perspective of health-oriented design, atria and inner courtyards are gaining in significance due to their potential for regulating indoor air temperature and quality, especially if they are properly technically equipped and supported by appropriate landscaping. In this particular approach, the “atrium effect” is discussed in the presented study, in contrast to the specific method of forming the upwardly opened lobby. In the search for a method to optimize the use of the biophilic elements in semi-open built environments, the authors use ENVI-met v. 4.4.4. software to assess their impact on physical parameters of the environment.
