Abstract

The paper is focused on the some results of the first phase of the research project Smart Skin Envelope regarding the design, testing and construction of technological systems to make innovative adaptive envelopes for educational buildings. In particular, in this paper we shows two of the twenty case studies that we have analysed in the preliminary phase of the research and that could be considered representative solutions for the typology of service and residential buildings in the University Campus: the innovative façade systems realized for the construction of Swiss Tech Convention Centre and for the Retail and Student Housing in the new Quartier Nord in the EPFL Campus in Lausanne. Both buildings are a good example of responsible and sustainable design, where new adaptive envelopes have been integrated as dynamic environmental philtres that can regulate the airflows, the solar radiation and the heat flows. These smart facades have been developed, in fact, as innovative technological components that can decrease the energy consumptions for heating, cooling and air exchange systems, so to guarantee a high indoor air quality in the university spaces during all months of the year.
