INVITATION High Comfort – Low Impact: Climate Responsive Design for Buildings and Cities in Consultancy and Academic Research 16.11.2016 um 20:00 Uhr im Großen Hörsaal Vortragende: Prof. Stefan Holst, TRANSSOLAR Munich, LFUI Guest Professor, Innsbruck und Prof. Thomas Auer, TRANSSOLAR Stuttgart, TUM, Chair for Building Technology and Climate Responsive Design, Munich Climate responsive design means minimizing the negative impact of the exterior environment while taking advantage of potential natural energy sources. An energy efficient building does not have to be uncomfortable — in fact, they are often described by their occupants as more comfortable than conventional buildings. By creatively incorporating local resources as sun, outside air and earth into building systems a natural and healthy interior climate can be achieved. Enhancing the presence of daylight in a room not only minimizes energy expended on artificial lighting, it can also dramatically improve one´s architectural experience and provide a more pleasant working and living environment. Employing adaptive comfort with natural ventilation and radiant cooling eliminates the undesirable effects associated with traditional air conditioning. The principles of climate responsive design may be successfully applied to practically any city in any environment in the world. The application of climate responsive design principles in consulting […]

Chromogenic Composites Exhibition of student work 18.-23. March 2022, Department for Experimental Architecture - Hochbau, Studio Prof. Marjan Colletti In this seminar, students explored the relationships between digital environmental simulations, digital fabrication, and material properties. The focus lay on the interplay between colour, form, and climate. The objective of the course was to develop a design and fabrication method that links, programs, synchronises and orchestrates those relationships. The results are interactive chromogenic composites that act as interfaces between the built and the natural environment. In diesem Seminar erforschten die Studierenden die Beziehungen zwischen digitalen Umweltsimulationen, digitaler Fertigung und Materialeigenschaften. Der Schwerpunkt lag dabei auf dem Zusammenspiel von Farbe, Form und Klima. Ziel des Kurses war es, eine Design- und Fertigungsmethode zu entwickeln, die diese Beziehungen verknüpft, programmiert, synchronisiert und orchestriert. Das Ergebnis sind interaktive chromogene Komposite, die als Schnittstellen zwischen der gebauten und der natürlichen Umwelt fungieren.

PhD Defence / Rigorosum Andreas Körner, BSc MArch Variegated Poché Exploring thermochromic materials as surrogate models for the design integration of surface weathering in architecture. Abstract: Current environmental and ecological pressures lead architects to reconsider the relationships between the inside and the outside, the permanence of surfaces, and the ageing of buildings. Integrating weathering through design and contextualising it in architectural theory are key components of this paradigm shift. This doctoral dissertation explores thermochromic materials as surrogate models for weathering as a design tool. Thermochromics change colour due to temperature. The research projects investigate the textural relationship between surfaces, substrates, and environments. The study employs a mixed-methods approach. First, a comprehensive literature review surveys the contemporary and historical concepts of weather, colour, texture, and poché. The correlation between the 19th-century debate on architectural polychromy and anthropogenic pollution acts as a historical case study for today’s relationship between ornament and climate change. Subsequently, the method of thermochromic programming is developed via five design research projects. Consequently, aesthetic chromogenic correlations between natural, long-term weathering and reversible, short-term thermochromic materials are outlined. The findings demonstrate that thermochromic programming can act as a surrogate model to explore design aspects of augmented weathering […]
