School of Management, Tel Aviv University | o2a studio
Tel Aviv-Yafo / Israel
The building was designed with the intention to create an edifice that represents an innovative and updated image for the Faculty of Management at Tel Aviv University, while at the same time taking into consideration the neighboring public spaces and functional needs of the entire campus. The shape and design of the building stem from optimizing climatic and programmatic considerations, and contribute to creating an effective and sustainable structure.The planning process was undertaken using parametric design tools and through the utilization of computerized optimization processes that enabled to achieve the most effective solutions in accordance with the various design considerations and purposes.Through the use of climatic simulation tools, the building’s facades were designed in order to provide maximum efficiency in terms of minimizing radiation and maximizing sunlight.
The design language used in the design fronts, is one hand contemporary and on the other hands corresponds with facades of the older adjacent buildings.The final form of the building was also determined by means of climatic parametric optimization. The entire structure is covered with perforated aluminum slats, which provide significant shading for the facades in order to reduce solar gain. The rotation and depth of the louvers have been parametrically designed so that every point on the structure provides optimal climatic response depending on their location withouth compromising visibility out of the structure.
