CONCEPT

Creating a dynamic relationship between the building and its environment

A responsive façade design inspired by the concept of living architecture 

The geometric logic and panel behavior were first modeled in Grasshopper, where the movement angles and facade modules were tested digitally. Then, through Arduino’s control, this virtual logic was physically prototyped turning environmental data into motion.

Panels react to natural light, closing at night for privacy and opening in the morning to welcome daylight
