WORKSHOP
Department of Interior Building and Environment Design
Opening Lectures:
Taro Narahara: Interactive Applications using Sensors, Actuators, and Microcontrollers
J.B. da Conceicao Van Nieuwenhuizen: The bio-dynamic origami skin
9:00-11:00
Mon 17/3
Kinetic Morphology Group
Day 1
Solar Origami Group
Introduction to workshop topic -Ruth
Physical working modelling.
Each group gets an origami pattern (create a 2d file and a 3d file)
-
working physical models.
-
finding variations for façade and shading device.
-
exploring movement according to the sun path and exploring the problems of the site ( climatic and programmatic requirements, circulation, daily cycle)
11:00-13:00
Adding light and color
Advanced interaction design - sensors and actuators
Presentation of first models
Lecture: Innovative materials and building skins
9:00-11:00
Modelling the variations
11:00-13:00
Computational modeling and applying 3 options of each fold on the façade.
Freeze the different positions for different times and dates and evaluate efficiency.
