Electricity consumption in Panama City has increased due to constant use of air conditioning units in the whole internal volume of numerous buildings. In order to reduce the electricity consumption in buildings, the potential of transition spaces was analyzed. The ground floor area, categorized as transition space, of the Headquarters of the National Bank of Panama was used as a study case. A survey was conducted to determine the environmental perception, thermal and light comfort sensation of building occupants. Climatic, socioeconomic, psychological and metabolic factors were considered when determining environmental comfort. The result indicates that the majority (80% to 88%) of users that participate in a survey feel comfortable. Buildi...
