Inside, vivid diagrams trace the journey from generative code to a finished façade. Meanwhile, workflow tables, KPI dashboards, and downloadable scripts translate complex theory into studio-ready practice. Step-by-step chapters unpack bio-digital morphologies, kinetic “thinking skins,” and AI-driven BIM toolkits, followed by global case studies—from Abu Dhabi to Copenhagen—that highlight measurable energy savings and occupant comfort gains. A final look at self-healing concrete, mycelium skins, and energy-harvesting façades previews the next frontier of regenerative design.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you are an architect, engineer, researcher, or advanced student, this book offers a clear road map for balancing daylight, energy, carbon, and well-being across multiple scenarios—reducing iteration time while elevating creativity. In short, it equips you to transform the built environment from passive shelter into an active partner in planetary stewardship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProf. Amjad Almusaed, Ph.D—is Architectural Scholar in environmental and sustainable design and holds Ph.D. (Ion Mincu University) with post-doctoral research at Aarhus School of Architecture on bioclimatic housing.
