The building envelope, is the most important element in the energy consumption of a building, in case of large scale buildings it gains more importance due to the large amount of the surface area of building’s facade. In a context of global warming and our needs to reduce CO2 emissions, building envelopes will play an important role. A new imperative has been put forth to architects and engineers to develop innovative materials, components and systems, in order to make building envelopes adaptive and responsive to variable and extreme climate conditions especially for composite climate. Envelopes serve multiple functions, from shielding the interior environment to collecting, storing and generating energy. This dissertation is an investigation into climate responsive architecture, specifically within the building envelope. It seeks to respond to local environmental conditions and enhance sensual qualities to generate a unique architectural environment by engaging interaction between people and the building’s skin. By analyzing the wall assembly as an aperture for responding to the different weather conditions, the responsive envelope will engage air, light and water movement to harness energy and create a site-specific building envelope.
