Sustainability; as a combination of parametric patterns and bionic strategies

After about 50 years, bionic knowledge had some consequential developments in building׳s structure part. Findings and researches in bionic were rather deficient in energy consumption section. In bionic design, one common pattern is parametric method. This study has reviewed the concepts and knowledge system of parametric bioskin design. The method outline is based on hour-by-hour energy simulation analysis. Furthermore, with the aid of LAVA skyscraper as a case study, the ultimate expectation of this research, which is illustrating the logic of parametric design in bionic facades to reduce energy consumption, can be analyzed. The results display that applying parametric patterns to bionic skyscrapers, lead to a considerable amount of energy saving.
