Designers incorporate solar shading into buildings using an innovative method that leverages a spring-shaped orthotropic weave in a shadow box frame. This unique configuration generates interference patterns through the deliberate skewing of overlapping weaves, creating intricate visual effects. When harnessed as a kinetic sculpture, this dynamic installation would continuously produce evolving shade patterns on an exterior building facade. As the sun angle and possibly even wind interact with the design, the patterns change, adding a dynamic dimension to the structure's aesthetic. Alternatively, engineers could upgrade it to smart technology, enabling the solar shading system to autonomously adjust its opacity to darken or allow more light to filter through at strategic window facades.
