The Parametric Design implemented in Dynamic Façades is presented as a solution that responds to the design and is in sync with the characteristics of the environment, achieving optimal levels of interior comfort with minimal energy resources.

A method is presented for the performance of the façade system using an experimental approach through the parametric design of different patterns that compose moving sequences of the shutter elements of the Southeast facade of the building of the new headquarters of the Global Bank bank , in Panama.

The mobile facade of 800m2 is made up of 160 louvre modules of perforated sheet metal, each with a motor that controls the opening and closing of each element separately.

To carry out the design of the movement sequences, first real measurements are carried out in the building to quantify real values of natural lighting and motor consumption, and later an energy model is carried out with the aim of carrying out simulations and quantify the levels of natural lighting, solar radiation, thermal comfort and energy consumption (cooling and artificial lighting), of each of the proposed sequences.

The project is currently under development.
