Description:

This course is one of a series of eight CE courses on building envelopes that offers a critical framework and vocabularies for architectural technology, with a special emphasis on the design and construction of the building envelope. The goal of this series is to develop a means by which designers can create and innovate building envelopes and energy-efficient buildings. These means shall include both an understanding of the forms and components of a building that provide efficiency and comfort, and processes for use in design that will encourage the selection of the proper physical responses and facilitate the investigation of the likely performance of these selections. This eighth course investigates responsive and dynamic technologies that allow the building envelope to react to changing environmental conditions. Each mini-monograph of this eight-part series can be taken as an individual course.
