Parametric design and facades: A literature review

The design and materials used in building facades are crucial for energy efficiency. By optimizing these elements, we can significantly reduce energy consumption and enhance sustainability in our architecture. It is estimated that more than ۴۰% of building energy is wasted through the facade. This issue justifies the importance of examining the building’s facades and trying to improve their quality to achieve thermal comfort.In recent years researches, parametric facade has been given much attention. The ability to control incoming light and heat, while maintaining the connection between the inside and outside of the building, is only part of the advantages of the parametric facade. In this paper we are going to have a review on parametric facades such as dynamic facades andDSF’s.This analysis underscores that through the implementation of parametric design, achieving energy efficiency is not only feasible but increasingly attainable. The review of various articles supports this perspective, highlighting innovative approaches that can drive significant energy savings.
