In architectural language, a vestibule is known as the space between the indoors and the outdoors which connects the building with the outside world. These are a part of the building. However, they are not situated inside the core structure of it. They serve many functions for the betterment of the structure, be it a building, hotel, hospital or any other building.
Vestibule is derived from a Latin word “vestibulum” which means the “entrance hall”. Having a vestibule in the structures gives it a grand look. There are many types of vestibules present in the buildings. Few vestibules are enclosed by columns, which align them more outdoors rather than indoors. Vestibules are very essential for big structures like Hotels, Hospitals, and Malls etc. in order to use optimal energy. This is because the vestibule creates a form of air lock, which keeps the temperature inside the building stable. Vestibules insulate the structure of the building from the fluctuating temperatures outside. Especially in a place like Canada where the cold temperature goes to the extremity, it is a necessity for all the Hotels, Hospitals and commercial malls to have a Vestibule in their structures so that they could maintain an ambient temperature inside the building. Not just the temperatures but a vestibule also helps to reduce the outside noise from coming inside the building and dissipate the odor as well.
Since the maximum infiltration is done from the main doors of the building. Therefore, it is necessary to install a vestibule in the entrance area of the buildings. All the doors of the buildings must open and close out of the vestibule, which is equipped with self-closing devices.
The new modern buildings have vestibules with many types of glass doors and glass artworks. It is very important to keep these glass doors safe otherwise; the sole purpose of having a vestibule will be wasted. In cold countries, it is very important for big hospitals and Hotels to get a prompt response for the repair work and replacement of the vestibule glasses.
