In a recent Architect Magazine article, “Nine Tech Strategies for Architects for 2019,” digital design leaders from firms across the country share their tech strategies and resolutions for 2019. PAYETTE Principal and Director of Building Science Andrea Love shares how our firm has been utilizing big data to inform design and her mission to drive new research projects forward.
In my world of building science, we are at this interesting juncture in computing abilities and tool availability where you can now, say, set up an energy model in the evening to run thousands of simulation options and come into the morning to all the results. This poses a new challenge of how to investigate, present, and leverage data in order to make it most useful.
