This challenge is a commition by the swiss workplace group8 architect. As they have been engaged on the lightning system of the corridor of the brand new ICRC logistic complicated, they determined to discover the flows of individuals contained in the constructing. Thus, the necessity for a parametric answer rose.
As time was quick, the purpose of the challenge was to in a short time construct an interface to outline the orientation of every lighting ingredient within the ceiling, so they’d reveal a movement and completely different attraction factors. To take action, a processing applet was developed that allowed to load the 3D mannequin and every mild middle factors. Completely different options have been explored. The one which was retained is constructed round 3 attractors defining particular person “drive fields”. Curiously, as the sunshine programs develops on 2 ranges, relying on the view level, a spherical attraction drive area is revealed.
