About this Course
The IES offers Educational Webinars throughout the year, purposefully spanning a broad range of topics and speaker expertise. This session was a live webinar, now available as an archived webinar and CEU course.
Description: As built projects and design processes become more complex and data-driven, designers must respond to a growing list of demands. Advancements in software have offered opportunities to incorporate parametric workflows within interdisciplinary teams in order to address these challenges. Through idea evolution and practical implementation of data-informed design decisions, our skillsets and knowledge expand to support and leverage these tools. In this presentation, two case studies respectively explore advanced daylighting analysis and photorealistic lighting visualization via parametric workflows. Briefly expressed, “script the challenge and inform”.
