Abstract:
Buildings in the United States account for nearly 68% of all U.S. energy consumption due to their reliance on electrical lighting and mechanical systems. Beginning in the 20th century, emphasis on developing the glass curtain wall created increased energy demands on lighting and mechanical systems. Consequently, the building’s curtain wall is a direct cause of significant energy loads. This research project investigated how current parametric design tools and energy analysis software are used during a performance-driven passive solar design process to develop facade systems that lower the ener

Abstract:
The main objectives of this research are (a) to investigate the thermal effect of double skin facades in office buildings in hot climates and (b) to propose guidelines for their efficient design based on this evaluation. The study involves the energy performance analysis of two buildings in India. A base case with the existing building skin was simulated for both the cities. The main source for the high cooling loads was found to be heat gain through windows and walls. This led to the evolution of a series of facade strategies with the goals of reducing heat gain, providing ventilation and day

Bangkok's dramatic growth in the last three decades has brought with it a wide range of urban problems - economic, architectural, environmental, and social.

Abstract:
This research has significantly advanced the knowledge and understanding of the structural behaviour and design of vertical load bearing members of aluminium facades subject to wind actions, based on full-scale wind pressure tests and extensive advanced numerical simulations. It has shown that the design approaches used in the industry may result in either conservative or unsafe designs of vertical load bearing members, and thus developed improved design guidelines. Further, it has demonstrated that advanced numerical simulations can be used for economical designs of these facade members.

Abstract:
A goal of environmental graphic design is to create identities that inform the public of a building's contents and occupants. The designer's use of recognizable exterior marks, symbols and signage dictates how well this information is communicated to prospective clients, visitors or observers. My creative project examines how informational environmental and graphic design can improve awareness and understanding of the mission of a building that was not constructed for its current social services use.

Abstract:
Building integrated water efficiency strategies can generate energy or reduce the energy consumption of the building. Solar and wind are two natural forces that are commonly used to provide energy to buildings today; water, on the other hand, is usually ushered off site and not utilized to its full potential. The question is how to find a way to reduce the energy used to get the water needed for the building, because water is an important aspect to care about and save. This will require several methods and strategies in order to find the best and most efficient way of doing this. This thesis i

It was first stated 200 years ago, and reiterated numerous times since, that "architecture is frozen music". While this romantic analogy sufficiently satisfies many in the realm of architecture, it actually is a sad way of defining an idea so inherently lively. Goethe's quote conjures up the notion of a world that is silent, one in which we can see the notes but never hear the music because we are trapped by stasis in time. Like the note admired on a piece of paper, architecture in this world is static regardless of the changing conditions around it. What if the "frozen" part could be removed

The basis of F.A.CE project.lon was the competition for an future Academy within the spirit of the former Bauhaus Dessau. The competition provided the opportunity to introduce my thoughts for an educational establishment in art, architecture and design. The Essence of F.A.CE project.Ion was to extend the myth of the former Bauhaus utopians. Several artists were active either together or in succession and made valueable contributions to the Bauhaus through their own work. Their names and faces are form together the multifaced image that refers silently as a memory to a former Bauhaus idea. The

Abstract:
This thesis highlights a method of arriving at form that minimizes the need for high end technology and complex mathematical models, yet has structural principles of load flow at the highlighted methods core. Similar to how graphical statics assisted earlier architects and engineers to arrive at form by relating form and forces, this thesis suggests a method of form finding that relates the flow of stresses within solid masses to possible load-bearing façades. Looking to nature, where an abundance of efficient structural solutions can be found, this thesis focuses on a tree-like structural for

Abstract:
Facades mounted on the exterior of buildings protect the interior from aggressive environments, besides contributing to their aesthetics and technical performance. Unfortunately, despite some serious facade failures involving some deaths and injuries, their inspection and maintenance, which are essential for public safety, have been generally ignored. On July 16, 2009, a large concrete facade element, weighing 320 kg, detached from the building structure of a Montreal hotel and fell on its exterior sidewalk cafe, instantaneously killing a young woman celebrating her birthday and injuring her h

Abstract:
This thesis aims to contribute to the field of interaction design by exploring the use of nonverbal cues in FTF communication with the aim of generating knowledge that can be used as an alternative approach for assessing and designing text-based CMC media. To achieve this goal, movement in is analysed in the nonverbal and collaborative dimensions of FTF communication. This presents the possibility to assess text-based CMC media based on a better understanding of the use of nonverbal cues and FTF communication as a standard. The assessment and design based on this concept is tested in the desig

<p>The purpose of this project is to test and improve people’s ability of face recognition. </p><p>Although there are some tests on the internet with the same purpose, the problem is that people </p><p>may feel bored and give up before finishing the tests. Consequently they may not benefit from </p><p>testing nor from training. To solve this problem, face recognition and online game are put </p><p>together in this project. The game is supposed to provide entertainment when people are playing, </p><p>so that more people can take the test and improve their abilities of face recognition. </p><p>
