Decision Support for Defining Adaptive Façade Design Goals in the Early Design Phase
Compared to conventional façades, adaptive façades (AFs) can adjust their properties in response to environmental changes and user requirements. Often performed through the integration of actuators, sensors, and control units, this provides benefits such

Influence of a facade design on thermal and visual comfort in an elementary school classroom
Thermal and visual comfort are important elements in the learning process. The object chosen was the classroom of the Sawah Besar 01 public elementary school, Semarang where the building tends to have a homogeneous facade design but with openings that ...

Developments of Façade Design with a Special Reference to the City Hotels in Kuala Lumpur
The study examines the façade design developments of the high-rise city hotels since the 1960s post-colonial period in Malaysia. Strategically located in the tourist hub of Malaysia’s capital, three case studies of high-rise city hotels built in ...

Integrating power flow modelling with building simulation [PDF]
The inclusion of photovoltaic facades and other local sources of both heat and power within building designs has given rise to the concept of embedded generation: where some or all of the heat and power demands are produced close to the point of use ...

We present a computational approach for designing wire meshes, i.e., freeform surfaces composed of woven wires arranged in a regular grid. To facilitate shape exploration, we map material properties of wire meshes to the geometric model of Chebyshev nets.
