Week 6 - Manipulation/Transformation 124b 2015 Summer
Course	124b
Date	2015/07/29
Learning Objectives	We will learn how to redesign one part of your case study building envelope based on your environmental analysis.
Agenda	Façade design lecture Surface variation techniques demo
Uses Tool(s)	Rhinoceros , Grasshopper , [[Paneling tools plug-in|]]

Based on you analysis key study site, reconsider climate controls, create new performance criteria and come up with new passive weather control strategies. Redesign one part of building envelope based on your analysis using panelingtools or other surface panelization method. Identify elements in new envelope that will change with changes in environmental conditions thought the year. Start with freely generated, three dimensionally curved surface deployed then apply set of operations, manipulation and techniques which will transform the surface. These techniques should be aimed to test environmental performance/structural/spatial logic of your proposal. Through the further number of manipulations and modeling studies optimization of regular, semi-regular and variable geometries, gradually change tessellation patterns
