| Resumen: | “The average temperature of the Earth’s surface is now about 1.2°C warmer than it was in the late 1800s (before the industrial revolution) and warmer than at any time in the last 100,000 years.” “Extremely temperature events used to cover 0.1% of the Earth, Now they cover 14.5%.” More prolonged exposure to heatwaves in Europe(2024), heavier precipitation and floods in Pakistan 2022, severe drought in Austria 2017-2018, and frequent natural disasters have shown us that environmental changes are much faster than before. Our current infrastructure is designed for decades of use. Humans need buildings that can adapt, optimize, enhance, and reshape their original functions and performance to face an ever-changing future. We can reshape our building insulation systems by harnessing the simple mechanisms of flowing, freezing, and melting different materials on the building surface with environmental temperature change and increasing or reducing the thickness of materials with more layers, adjusting the material’s physical properties by mixing air, and changing its position. Most functions are now in one simple, flexible deposition system; residents can adjust the strength of sunlight penetrating their roof, and switch heat and humidity modes between seasons for other purposes.This paper provides a new type of deposition solution for the future of environmentally adjustable, energy-saving spaces.The aim is to let architecture stop dictating environmental conditions, let nature improve energy efficiency, and change spatial insulation for different functions. Since those materials can be easily replaced and supplied, repositioned into anisotropic structures, and formed into a cluster effect in building blocks, this system is suitable for movable, existing, newly built, and different types of buildings for micro- or macro-environmental applications. |
