Parametric Facade
Parametric Facade is a type of building exterior that uses computer-based design rules to change its shape or features in real time, helping smart buildings react to sunlight, temperature, or air quality. Sensors can be built into these facades to collect data, and small motors or moving parts can adjust panels or shades automatically, which helps save energy and keeps indoor spaces comfortable. Designers can set up the rules for how the facade moves or changes, so the building can respond to the weather or the needs of the people inside without manual control. This approach means the facade is not fixed but can change many times each day, working together with smart building systems for better performance.
