    Proposed Ultra-Modern Cultural Center for Abia State (Design Consideration for Ultramodern Cultural Center)
    (Lead City University, 2023-12) Jeremiah Ndubisi NWAOBI
    The issue for the architect while creating a cultural center is figuring out how to effectively convey the important cultural and traditional aspects of a community. In order to create cultural centers, architects had to identify, adapt, develop, and eventually convey both concrete and intangible cultural and traditional elements. To build a facility that is not only aesthetically spectacular but also practical and significant to the community it serves, many different considerations must be carefully taken into account. This study explores the essential design components and factors for an ultra-modern cultural center. To propose agreeable answers to various tropical construction and energy difficulties, an analysis of the integrated pertinent energy efficiency aspects is emerging. In this context, all parties involved, notably the architects and designers, must take responsibility. The aim of the study is to investigate strategies that can be used to achieve lighting and ventilation in a cultural center. Toprovide a comfortable environment that complies with indoor environmental quality (IEQ) standards, cultural centers must be created as part of the built environment with adequate ventilation and effective natural lighting. For people to feel comfortable within a structure, the design must combine environmentally friendly architecture and engineering. This research will examine two factors that affect indoor environmental quality: ventilation and "natural lighting" Architecture serves a wide range of purposes in the built environment, even in historical and cultural structures where explicit efforts are made to promote comfort and spatial ergonomics. Daylight and natural ventilation are vital resources that are easily accessible and unlikely to become scarce in the near future. In addition to perhaps serving as a tool for critiquing and assessing upcoming works, the results of this research should give architects and other designers a knowledge of the methods employed in conveying cultural center.
