Full Article:

This research presents a process of the combination of Computational Design with bioclimatic parameters from different climatic zones in Brazil, to assist in the analysis of standardized architectural solutions for Housing projects. For the analysis, a model was defined and inserted in three Brazilian (Brasília, Curitiba e Manaus) cities, which belonged to different bioclimatic zones, Z1, Z4 and Z8. The insertion of climatic parameters, as well as the production of the analysis prototype, were performed using Rhinoceros and its extensions Ladybug and Grasshopper.
