Latitude + Lux, a collaboration between CS Design and EVOQ Architecture, examines high latitude daylight design and the integration of indigenous lighting knowledge and computational design using ClimateStudio.

The free course on Sustainable Building Design is an introduction to a range of analysis techniques and technologies for designing climate-aware and resource-efficient buildings. ClimateStudio is used throughout the course as the instructional tool.

Updates include a new progressive Radiance Render workflow, luminaire grouping with post-process dimming, heat index map, expanded climate file database, and more.

Shimz DDE used ClimateStudio to carry out 400,000+ computational design iterations to maximize average annual illuminance in a new office building in Tokyo.

ACC Glass and Façade Consultant uses ClimateStudio to perform iterative daylight and glare simulations and examines the daylight performance of five iconic buildings

Lake|Flato used ClimateStudio to design Alamogordo Middle School to achieve 100% spatial daylight autonomy in all learning spaces.

ClimateStudio now features automated translation of Revit models for daylight analysis.

We’re delighted to announce that over 300 member educational institutions are now teaching and researching with ClimateStudio as part of our Educational Ambassador Program.

ClimateStudio now connects users to over 30,000 climate files. With that many choices, how do you select the most representative climate file for your project?

Solatube Tubular Daylighting Devices (TDDs) can now be simulated using ClimateStudio’s fast and accurate workflows – helping architects design for daylight, visual comfort, and the achievement of green-building credits.

Yes. ClimateStudio is built on the validated simulation engines EnergyPlus and Radiance. While its novel path tracing approach makes ClimateStudio much faster than legacy lighting tools, its results are no less accurate.

If you are accustomed to legacy lighting simulation tools, such as DIVA-for-Rhino, you may be surprised by ClimateStudio’s speed.

We are excited to share ClimateStudio as the full-featured replacement for DIVA.

We are thrilled to share that Solemma launched ClimateStudio for Grasshopper.

Studio Ma designs sustainable 16-story Arts Innovation hub and residence hall for Arizona State University with Solemma’s ClimateStudio.
