Smart Materials for Architecture and Design Professions
Distinguishing smart materials
Making (drawing) surfaces in architecture and design.
The use of materials can be driven in two ways:Materials become the surfaces or structural skin.Materials are thought as an interactive/responsive
element
Two approaches for classifying materials:
Sciences and engineering disciplinesDesign discipline
An array of physical behaviors:
Physical propertyProcessesUse and function
An artifact with character:
EmotionPerception aesthetics
engineering disciplines Design discipline
Smart materials
Classification of smart materials and their input and output stimuli

Photochromics ( 光致色變 )– materials that change color when exposed to light
Thermochromics( 熱致色變 )– – materials that change color due to temperature changes.
Mechanochromics ( 機械色變 )– – materials that change color due to imposed stresses and/or deformations.
Chemochromics ( 化學色變 )– – materials that change color when exposed to specific chemical environments.
Electrochromics (( 電致色變 )– materials that change color when a voltage is applied. Related technologies include liquid crystals and suspended particle devices that change color or transparencies when electrically activated.
