Multi-storey office building in the tropics generally consumes a lot of electricity for air conditioning and artificial lighting. The energy crisis and environmental destruction forced the designers / architects to apply various energy-saving design strategies such as active facade to to make building performance is to be better than just relying on a passive strategy. This design implementing active façade to respond the sun path using Rhinoceros and Revit for modeling, Graasshopper and Dynamo to parametric design, as well as the Ladybug for environmental analysis on this office building. There are two phases In the design process: passive design optimization and active design optimization to obtain an energy-efficient building performance. The general concept of this building is a high performance building and building as a city landmark. There are two stages of design method of this project, the first stage is the iconic design masses and solar radiation analysis and the second phase is the design of the facade through a computational design and building information modeling. The designing process eventually produced three types of facade: passive facade, active facade, and the tilt facade.
