Intelligent Skins
by Michael Wigginton; Jude Harris
www.elsevierdirect.com/product.jsp?isbn=9780750648479
This book presents the principles of the design of the facade in terms of its ability to respond to external changes and internal demands. It considers the facade in terms of the biological notions of intelligence and response as demonstrated by the human skin. International case studies (mostly from Europe) comprise over two-thirds of the book. One unfortunate drawback of the case studies is that the diagrams appear to come straight from the source material, so they are not consistently detailed and labeled.
