Pattern R+D uses advanced analysis tools and methods to design for building energy, daylighting, and thermal comfort performance. Our focus is on using tools and processes that create a truly parametric design space to analyze more alternatives faster than with conventional methods. Our team utilizes advanced optimization algorithms to optimize for lowest life cycle cost combinations of materials and technologies parameters that meet or exceed operational energy efficiency targets in the same workflow. Pattern delivers highly integrated design solutions to go beyond shallow notions of sustainability to true parametric and performance driven design.
