Description:
Climate simulation has become a critical tool for shaping architectural performance in response to rising global temperatures. This Labs hands-on session presents the digital twin workflow behind Hammock Tower, an architectural design for Paris in 2100, which leverages NVIDIA Omniverse, SimScale, Cesium, and Autodesk Forma to inform climate-resilient strategies for a projected +4°C future. Participants will learn how to use environmental simulation to guide passive cooling strategies, validate design hypotheses, and visualize airflow at both building and urban scales. The session emphasizes translating site-specific data into actionable spatial interventions for sustainable architectural design.
