Study natural light in a cellar. (Trying to meet Pablo Barrientos)
simulation programs we offer the great advantage of the possibility of anticipate environmental performance (heat, light and sound) of a given project.
These software designers to give us information that helps us make decisions. These programs will make decisions, users are professionals who do. Do support us in making decisions for us and the client, knows that the effects of each choice. Decisions can be of a space on the one hand and, secondly, the constructive nature, how and where to use one or the other, what is recommended to achieve a certain level of efficiency in the project. Undoubtedly, the ability to optimize resources is one of the advantages offers the use of these softwares.
Moreover, the professional support in their efforts to show the client or owner how design affects the project in so adjust the relationship with their environment, I mean, how it affects the path of the sun, wind or rain, and , which I consider very important, how design has the ability to improve aspects that influence the quality of the habitability of the project, its sustainability .
Whoever has an architectural design can benefit greatly when subjected to these assessment tools, for the professional in charge may make a few suggestions, based, to improve quality in ways that are relevant and long-term impact.
In a house under construction, we can see how it affects the solar tour the different campuses, and what this means in terms of energy consumption and environmental quality. We can better define what construction material used to improve thermal performance, ie to improve user comfort by incurring the minimum cost possible thereafter. Help us to better distribute the budget, as we learn more about the effects of each decision.
In an existing building that has problems of comfort, we can evaluate the appropriateness of each intervention to improve the performance pair thermal or light, or In other words, cost v / s benefits of any investment.
In other buildings, we can focus on evaluating the energy consumption or the sound quality .. Finally ..
Somehow, we managed much more responsible design.
There is one aspect that is most relevant is that by incorporating these factors in the design, the designer's work takes on a meaning and a different value. I believe that value the work of the designer. designer to public view is no longer a selfish artist who wants to make your design at any cost, his masterpiece at the expense of the client's budget, but is turns and resumes his role of server, it becomes a means, an ally who works to make comfortable spaces, a partner who brings value to the building, an ally that has the ability to generate quality of life.
