Intelligent Building Facades: Beyond Climatic Adaptivity

Computing in Civil Engineering (2005), 2005
This paper is based on a comparative analysis of some twenty-six intelligent building facades and sixteen large media-facades from a social-psychology perspective. Our thesis is that at the centre of the development of automated facade lies the industrial automation attitude that renders the eventual product socially less engaging and machinic.

“Adaptive radiation” optimization for climate adaptive building facade design strategy

Building Simulation, 2017
This paper introduces an evolutionary algorithm methodology to solve facade optimization problems in different climates. The algorithm is based on the improvement of simple Genetic Algorithm (GA). The concept of Adaptive Radiation (AR) is derived from the biological process of adaptation where specific species are evolutionarily adapted to their ...

ENERGY EFFICIENT DESIGN WITH ADAPTABLE FACADES

2023
Buildings account for a significant portion of global energy consumption. Both economic and environmental problems caused by energy consumption in buildings increase the importance of energy efficient design every day. The energy consumed in buildings is primarily used to provide user comfort by keeping the indoor-outdoor relationship in balance ...

Building Performance Simulation and Characterization of Adaptive Facades – Adaptive Facade Network

2018
The book “Performance Simulation and Characterisation of Adaptive Facades” responds to the need of providing a general framework, standardised and recognised methods and tools to evaluate the performance of adaptive facades in a quantitative way, by means of numerical and experimental methods, in different domains of interest.

Adaptive facades for emotionally enriching indoor environments

Journal of Building Engineering
Buildings are increasingly required to have a restorative effect as people spend a significant portion of their time indoors, inducing them stress. In this regard, the research investigates the emotional impact of adaptive façades, focusing on the correlation between shadow patterns and emotions elicited.
