In this delivery we were asked to design a curtain wall. I decided to design a faced similar to the one in the headline picture. Since I'm designing a facade is important to understand the solar radiation that the facade recives; I tried to parametrize where possible so that the facade could variate according to which facade we are designing.

In this post I tried to reproduce a curtain wall facade inspired by the one realised by Herzog and De Meuron in their M. H. de Young Memorial Museum in San Francisco.

As I know, the workflow they used to get this amazing result was longer and more refined than mine. The reason why I let myself be inspired by this project is because I found interesting the relationship between the diameter variation of the holes and the shade they provide inside.

So, I can start immediately to show my workflow.

First of all I opened a family template in metric curtain wall panel and started to design my panel's carriers.

I created my reference lines and gave the measurments and added them as parameters saved them as instance

To insert the panels I emptied some space for it with void forms.

Saved the family and loaded into new project template
