Atrium

An atrium is a vertical void space within a building where floor areas are deliberately omitted, creating an open sightline and air volume from lower to upper levels. This architectural feature is common in modern commercial and retail properties.

Key functions include:

  • Enhanced sense of space and improved natural light penetration
  • Visual connection and flow between floors
  • Improved air circulation and ventilation efficiency
  • Aesthetic appeal and marketing value for tenants and visitors

Atria reduce rentable floor area and require careful fire safety and building code compliance throughout the design and operation.
