Kinetic Facade

Kinetic facades, also known as responsive facades, change dynamically rather than being static or fixed, allowing movement to occur on a building’s surface; it is an extension that a building’s envelop is an active system rather just a container

Kinetic facades are used to manage light, air, energy allowing the passage of fresh air into the building and can act to reduce solar gain

Dynamic systems can reduce buildings reliance on heating, cooling and ventilation systems as well as artificial lighting and energy requirements
