Triggered by public concerns over the safety of office work during the COVID-19 pandemic. Conducted studies and redesigns regarding the use of natural ventilation and improving building performance in dealing with COVID-19. This design uses a quantitative method by using EPW (Energy Plus Weather File) data as a reference and using Wallacei to produce the best solution by completing the generative method. The resulting solution is in the form of the position and size of the opening which is used as the basis for designing the outer and inner shells, space layout, and vegetation placement. Simulation results using Wallacei showed that the best solution was in generation 11, Individual 1 (Gen 11, Indv 1) with an average air velocity (indoor-outdoor) of 2.263 m/s, an average air pressure of 1206.5 hPa, and a turbulence of 0,686317 J/kg. With the lowest air exchange rate of 11,133 ACH (600m2 rental layout) and the highest 14,493 ACH (220m2 rental layout). The inner skin of the building uses a “random quad panel” design pattern and the outer skin uses a “symmetrical triangular panel/ hexa” pattern. This design is expected to be a pilot project for other office buildings. Therefore, the research resulted in a formula that is modular and generative which can easily be implemented in other buildings. The resulting formula optimizes air exchange rates, reducing air pressure and turbulence against building users.
