Project Description

Wind Language – Responsive Facade

2010 / 2011 Research Project

Real time responsive and adaptable structural  and skin system. Real Time Prototype development, fabrication (CNC ) and assembly – Grasshopper  development of the project.

We created our own Arduino-based designs, gain an in-depth knowledge of the architecture of Arduino.

Potential for Implementation:
This type of response to sensor data is beneficial in façade or interior wall applications where both a relationship with the environment and response to human activity is desired.  imagine a façade that acts and respond to wind and creating different patterns with shadow system to regular the UV gain and interior light levels. However, in this variation, the wall is also highly responsive to human activity. Views to the outside open up as a person approaches the wall from the inside. Obstructing views to the interior. Or perhaps the building is more welcoming than that, opening up as outsiders approach. In short, this scheme incorporates an overtly interactive relationship between the architecture and human occupant, be it inclusive, exclusive or other.
