Florida Polytechnic University

This parametric design video is about Florida Polytechnic University. Designed by world-renowned architect, Santiago Calatrava, the Innovation, Science and Technology Building at Florida Polytechnic University is truly breathtaking and one of a kind. The elliptical building is surrounded with metal pergolas, a domed glass ceiling, and topped by a 250-ft-long skylight shading system with 94 louvered arms that raise and lower to track the sun. Florida Poly is pushing the boundaries of innovation, science and technology and it was an honor to be the first to document this extraordinary university.
