Performance-based Design Computational Exploration
This ppt is about how does the grasshopper definition parameter can produce the various form of the roof profile.
This ppt has shown the chosen roof profile and how the the form of the roof affects the daylight autonomy and solar radiation.






Explore and study the trade-offs in a design exploration process.
(Below are the extracted slides)
Design a roof for Block W5A Studio that is able to have good daylight autonomy within the deep space but also maintain low levels of solar radiation entering the space.
Use parametric modelling software, Grasshopper, to create a simple design and explain the design exploration process of an architect.
Explore and study the trade-offs in a design exploration process and use performance stimulation, DIVA, to stimulate and analyse irradiation and daylight autonomy.
