Pattern r+d using a parametric platform for performance analysis

We use unique parametric processes allowing designers to alter their design with multiple iterations to test for daylight associated with each iteration.​Pattern r+d uses a rapid feedback methodology to give designers feedback regarding energy, daylight, glare, comfort and more when it would make the most difference.

Examples:

Parametric Energy, Solar, Daylight and Comfort Modeling  \ Design Phase – Pre design, Concept Design, Schematic Design, Design Development, Construction Documentation

The workflow showcased here is parametric having 3 different interfaces.The Rhinoceros and Grasshopper interfaced is focused towards the design teams.  Within grasshopper, our design options and alternatives can also be optimized to attain the optimal orientation, height, glazing percentage, shading depth and more.
