Introduction

This module is an experimental setup to design parametric driven facades. You will design a facade that adapts to the local conditions. Each element is drafted in the parametric modeler Digital Project/Catia by Gehry Technologies. In these models, the final form of the elemets is controlled by several parameters like sun position, noise immissions or program of the building.
