The Endesa Pavillion, Solar House 2.0, is a testbed for
informational grid technologies, driven and designed by Iaac with the support
of Endesa.
The pavillion, settled at the Olimpic Port of Barcelona on
the score of the Smart City BCN Congress (www.smartcityexpo.com), will be
installed at the Marina Pier since november 28.
The structure brings the distributed intelligence concept to
the realm of architecture through a multiscalar aproach. The project aims to
define an adaptative constructive system able to respond each solicitation at
the lowest scale. By doing this, each single module could answer to his own
structural, energetical and enviromental needings. The skin will act as a
network of inteligent nodes, a "solar brick" that protects from the
solar radiation, collects and storage the energy the data at the local scale.
