The lighting conditions of a library directly affect the users’ spatial experience, with glass curtain walls being widely used in the design of library skins. Although glass curtain walls have been extensively adopted, they increase indoor sun exposure and glare. Considering sunlight duration and radiation as the design basis, this study employs the Rhino and Grasshopper parametric platforms to parametrically design a library with a dynamic shading skin. Specifically, our design utilizes modular shading components that can change depending on the simulated sunlight data at different times. Additionally, a new optimal design strategy has been developed to enhance the environmental lighting performance of the library. The simulation results highlight that the indoor environmental lighting performance, under dynamic epidermal shading and based on sunlight duration data, is better for east–west, north–south, and east–west orientations on the summer solstice and the winter solstice. Meanwhile, the indoor environmental lighting performance, under dynamic epidermal shading based on daylight radiation data, is better for north–south orientation on the winter solstice. Overall, this study uses parameterization to integrate building simulation and architectural design to improve a building’s lighting performance. |
