This design project is mainly based on analyzing the wind environment by simulation and designing a facade to reduce the heat loss caused by wind, as well as generate electricity at the same time. The idea originates from my living experience in my accommodation in Glasgow. Because of the strong wind in Glasgow, many students living here had the experience of feeling cold around the windows or suffering from the scary noise caused by the wind.

In my design, sunlight, wind, and heat will all be considered as they are very important elements for comfort, but there are inevitably some conflicting elements. I will mainly focus on wind, because I suppose for places with stronger wind and less sunlight, it is more useful to prevent the heat loss caused by the strong wind.
