Through the study of existing buildings, and the design of new structures, students will be given the opportunity to extend and deepen their knowledge of Passive Design strategies for architects, with a particular view on daylighting design. Topics covered will include the management of daylight, optimizing solar access through building planning and orientation, orientation to wind, designing for temperature and the seasons and, most importantly, the impact on building form of all of these strategies. |
