Global energy price development causes a growing demand for energy efficient architectural building concepts. As a part of a systemic approach, smart building skins provide an option to reduce overall energy demands. In this regard, intelligent adaptivity of the building skin promotes environmental responsivity ensuring optimized energy use. Smart skins as eco-technological environments are mostly produced with serialized and prefabricated elements. Advances in serialized pre-fabrication reduce costs in relation to structural complexity of smart skin designs. Integral potentials of flow and bend split components for adaptable façade structures are projected with an exemplified foldable structure defining a cost-effective production solution for smart skins. Integrated, experimental scripting methods, jointing and mechanizing techniques are applied for this first prototype.
