The design process for building services started with a needs assessment, which identified the requirements of the project and any constraints. The team then developed concepts for the building services, including technical specifications and layouts. With the concept in place, the design team could begin to develop detailed designs for the building services, selecting equipment and materials and coordinating the installation of the building services.

The building services designed for the Gold Museum refurbishment are critical to the operation of the museum, ensuring that visitors have a comfortable and safe experience while also being energy-efficient and sustainable. These services include heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, lighting, power, and water supply systems.

The HVAC system is designed to provide optimal temperature and humidity control, ensuring the preservation of the artifacts on display while providing a comfortable environment for visitors. The lighting system is designed to provide optimal lighting levels for viewing the exhibits while also being energy-efficient. The power and water supply systems are designed to be efficient and sustainable, incorporating renewable energy sources and water recycling systems.

The documentation of the building services is critical to the success of the project. The documentation includes detailed drawings, technical specifications, and installation instructions for the building services. The documentation ensures that the building services are installed correctly and operate efficiently, reducing the risk of problems and minimizing ongoing maintenance costs.
