Seminarweek Spring 2012: "Adaptive Solar Facade Workshop"
The Adaptive Solar Facade Workshop will introduce students to concepts of adaptive systems and their potential in sustainable facade design. Buildings, while often thought of as static objects, have the capacity to respond to and influence their environments. During the workshop we will explore the design of dynamic facade systems with the capacity to respond to changes in both internal and external environmental factors such as the sun and user behaviour.
ASL @ PerCom 2012
Our paper entitled "Sustainable Architecture and Human Comfort through Adaptive Distributed Systems" has been selected for publication at the IEEE Pervasive Computing (PerCom) Conference 2012.
