KINETIC FACADE DEVELOPMENT

A kinetic facade is a type of architectural feature that can move or change its position, creating a dynamic and visually captivating effect. It consists of individual components, such as panels or louvers, that are designed to move in response to external factors like wind or user interaction. These movable elements can be controlled electronically or mechanically, allowing for various configurations and patterns. Kinetic facades are often used to enhance the aesthetics of a building, create shading, regulate sunlight, or improve ventilation. They add a sense of motion and life to the structure, making it more engaging and adaptable to its surroundings.
