“…Those façade typologies can be defined as building envelopes that can adapt to changing boundary conditions. such as short-term weather fluctuations, diurnal cycles, or seasonal patterns [29,40,41]. Hence, the thermophysical behavior of these façades can change over time and adapt to the changing needs of the building and its occupants, considering the various boundary conditions that can occur throughout the seasons and during the day [1,22].…”

A change in thinking has been ongoing in the architecture and building industry in response to growing concern over the role of the building industry in the excessive consumption of energy and its devastating effects on the natural environment. This shift changed the thinking of architects, engineers, and designers in the initial phases of a building’s design, with a change from the importance of geometry and form to assessing a building’s performance, from structure to a building’s skin, and from abstract aesthetics to bio-climatic aesthetics. In this context, sustainable, intelligent, and adaptive building façades were extensively researched and developed. Consequently, several typologies, strategies, and conceptual design frameworks for adaptive façades were developed with the aim of performing certain functions. This study focuses on the biomimetic methodologies developed to design adaptive façades because of their efficiency compared to other typologies. A comprehensive literature review is performed to review the design approaches toward those façades at the early stage of design. Then, the theoretical bases for three biomimetic frameworks are presented to gain an overall understanding of the concepts, opportunities, and limitations.

“…Moreover, elements like privacy level, visual exposure, and optical status are integral components of overall comfort [2]. Building envelope designers have developed alternative adaptive and kinetic facades to efficiently use daylight and solar radiation and enhance visual and thermal comfort in alignment with energy-and cost-saving principles [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15]. These approaches involve virtualizing the facade operation through advanced modelling techniques to understand and explore the solutions to enhance and optimize their performance.…”

Kinetic facades provide numerous advantages, such as improving the energy efficiency in buildings, effective control of daylight and natural ventilation, and the assurance of human comfort within indoor spaces. Either in the process of designing or programming the active control systems for kinetic facades, addressing the complicated nature of indoor climate necessitates advanced models that aid in determining optimal operations. However, the status quo of multi-objective (MOO) optimization in kinetic facade performance remains largely unexplored in the existing literature. This study delves into the trends in MOO methods and their broad applications through a scientific mapping and quantitative review process. The goal is to investigate the kinetic facade designers' contributions to expanding the application of computational MOOs. The findings indicate that researchers focused on kinetic facades have played a limited role in extending the MOO applications. This review paper is significant as it explores a less-explored facet of knowledge related to building design optimization, aiming to inspire researchers to stay abreast of evolving trends and integrate recent computational innovations into their facade designs.
