Bioclimatic architecture: transformation of an industrial park

This paper describes a possible integration of bioclimatic and performative design into the ecological transformation of a brownfield. The proposed design approach is verified on a case study in Loudden Docks oil terminal in Stockholm. It is observed how an architectural intervention, that is based on the study of the ambient conditions of the site, can improve the microclimate and create attractive public spaces. The study focuses on the element of wind and the reciprocal relationship of the wind and architectural shape.
