This is part of my #parametricdesignseries and will be integrated in the future as part of my planned #kineticfacadeseries.
How it works
I started working with a parametric design. I coded integration to drive patterns and energy savings initiatives or as in this case to shape facade openings with a level of variability built-in. I was inspired by sun-shielding facades as well as kinetic facades and I wanted to work on a simplified modulating sun covered facade. This simplified component modulates in-depth and has a varied selection for the colour of the glass partitions, which are all driven by #dynamo and #parametricdesign via #revitbim. In this case, the components are used as art pieces to add more character to green spaces and walkways.
Above you can see my first iteration of the pattern with depth modulation but still missing the colour modulation mapping and the instances are too tall independently.
This was was my first real free flow attempt to parameterize and drive instances to create a series of variations which can include colour, material, finish variations as well as depth morphing.
I really enjoyed playing with this and will look forward to the next project. #architecture #revitbim #facadedesign #parametricdesign #dynamo #revit #codinglife #bim
