This course discusses the impact of buildings on the natural environment through materials, manufacturing, and use. The discussion looks at solutions through specification and implementation of sun control technologies such as sunshade and daylighting canopy systems, as well as usage of materials that contain recycled content. Designing as part of a holistic building environment is critical to sustainable building projects, reduction of extraction of natural resources, and human health and well-being.
- Discuss how building projects impact the environment through manufacturing, materials, and use.
- Learn how to design projects that can minimize those impacts through sun control.
- Discuss the role of sunshades and canopies in passive design and identify how they contribute to a holistic sustainable building envelope, as well as human health and well-being.
- Understand how specific customization is critical to achieving desired results.
