What is Kinetic Double Skin Facade Design about?

The document describes a kinetic shading system for a building facade consisting of interlocking louvers within a double skin envelope. The louvers can pivot to three positions providing different levels of shading. The system draws from precedents like the GSW Headquarters building. A physical model and Grasshopper script were developed to explore the moving shutter system further and optimize the design for human scale and varying solar conditions on different exposures of the building.
