Abstract:

Kinetic façade systems, which increase the comfort of the occupants by interacting with the external environment and/or occupants interior space thanks to their adaptability function, and providing high daylight performance on the façade and energy efficiency throughout the life cycle of the building, offer efficient and effective solutions, as a sunshade shell. The optimum adaptability performance of the sunshade components that form the kinetic façade depends on the design and design process of these façades. In this context, in the design process where the morphological (physical-formal) structure of the kinetic facade is modeled and its kinetic transformation is designed, its functional properties are determined and performance analyzes have happened; The design approaches adopted, the design systems used and the design procedures created by the tools, methods, and techniques required by these systems gain importance. Within the scope of the study, it is aimed to reveal the relationship between the performance-based design of kinetic facade systems and the design process. For this purpose, comparative analysis and evaluation of the kinetic facade design samples were determined after the literature review has been done.In the conclusion section of the study, general determinations were made about performance-based optimum kinetic facade design and design process based on the findings, and the lack of studies on the design of these systems in the literature was mentioned and it was suggested that design methods and approaches in this field should be increased and developed.
