The increase in the transmission of the COVID-19 disease, creating an effort to prevent transmission by controlling total of space users in the Dean’s Office Building, University of Bengkulu to avoid overcrowding users of space in buildings. The control has an impact on the increasing number of space users in the transition space of outdoor (terraces, hallways, corridors) in the eight Dean’s Office Buildings. The thermal comfort of the outdoor transition space needs to be considered because the post-pandemic adaptation behavior causes the change in the function of the transition area as buffer between outdoor and indoor spaces, is currently becoming a waiting room for entering buildings with uncertain waiting times. In addition, University of Bengkulu is located in coastal area with air temperatures during the day between 30 °C- 34 °C and wind speed ranging from 0-2,2 m/s. The purpose of this research is to determine the perception of thermal comfort of space users in the transition space, Dean’s Office Building, University of Bengkulu. Measurement data in the form of air temperature, air humidity, and wind speed at the peak of the dry month were carried out at 08.00-16.00 for 10 working days and interview data on the perception of thermal comfort of space users. Interview and measurement data will be inputted on the Ray-man measuring instrument to obtain the PET, PMV, SET values.
