In recent years, environmental aspects and impacts have become increasingly crucial for architectural design. This research aims to use climate-related themes at the starting point of the design process and would ideally inspire architects to create a design concept that follows optimized energy solutions. The study named 'Inspired by the atmosphere' consists of the morphological research of different solutions influenced by environmental conditions in the urban context. This is a procedural protocol that defines a meta-project based on atmospheric forces (namely solar radiation and wind field) and provides architects not with final, restricted solutions but rather recommendations. The protocol develops multiple solutions arranged in a list sorted according to energy balance. The best solution may not consider all the aspects that are important for the architect. Instead, the designer must critically analyze all the results before the design process.

Abstract

In recent years, environmental aspects and impacts have become increasingly crucial for architectural design. This research aims to use climate-related themes at the starting point of the design process and would ideally inspire architects to create a design concept that follows optimized energy solutions. The study named 'Inspired by the atmosphere' consists of the morphological research of different solutions influenced by environmental conditions in the urban context. This is a procedural protocol that defines a meta-project based on atmospheric forces (namely solar radiation and wind field) and provides architects not with final, restricted solutions but rather recommendations. The protocol develops multiple solutions arranged in a list sorted according to energy balance. The best solution may not consider all the aspects that are important for the architect. Instead, the designer must critically analyze all the results before the design process.
