Abstract
The building facade interacts with its neighboring environment as an active element; therefore it is unreasonable to conceive the facade as merely a dividing entity between the interior and the exterior. The envelope system of smart building can dynamically improve dwelling conditions by intelligently reacting to climate changes. This research proposes a collaborative responsive building façade design method using sensor and actuator network. By synchronizing both virtual and physical models, the design state of the change or improve simultaneously. This study reflects the lighting level data among the various environmental elements to design responsive façade prototype. We utilized motion sensors to detect the movement of designer’s gestures for creating more intuitive design process.
