Students: Hugues Voisine & Sebastien Pinard

Software/Tools:

Ecotect

Artificial Sky

Winter 2007 Graduate Level ‘Ambiances physiques’ (environmental controls in architecture) Studio/ Seminar

Daylighting II

Daylighting studies ARCHITECTURAL SCALE and SCALE OF DETAIL. Early in the design process, evaluate environmental effect of daylighting design strategies.

Investigative Strategy

Students select the simulation process. Emphasis on physical modeling in the artificial sky using photocells (quantitative results) and digital photography (qualitative results). ECOTECT simulations that were used early in the design process are now tested with more refined simulations with physical modeling in the artificial sky.

Evaluation Process
Quantitative evaluation: comparing daylight factor results.Written report (20 pages) for the compulsory seminar, which applies to the design studio project.
