• We explore the possibilities of kinetic composition afforded by façades in motion.
• We experimentally present a solution for evaluation of kinetic façades performance.
• We test the kinetic motion impact for skin using parametric simulation.
• We suggest possible configurations to enhance daylight performance.
Recent literature shows that experimentation in kinetics and architectural skins is more widely introduced as a solution for environmental-related design issues. Facades and elements are transformed in kinetic living creatures changing in synchrony with the surrounding environment. Through the lens of morphology, this research explores the possibilities of kinetic composition afforded by facades in motion. It presents a method for the evaluation of kinetic facades system performance using experimental approach. The experiments investigate improving daylight performance through the design and motion of kinetic facades using various integrated software. The impact of kinetic motion of hexagonal pattern on south-facing skin to control the daylight distribution in an office space is studied using parametric simulation technique. Results demonstrate the analysis of rotational and translation kinetic motions at the early design stage compared to a traditional window (base case). Finally, possible configurations to enhance daylight performance are suggested.
