Novel solutions in sustainable design due to advancing technology are increased besides bringing new problems. One major problem is originated with the usage of fully-glazed surfaces on the building facade without any justification. Fully-glazed facades may lead to higher energy consumption and visual discomfort. In such office buildings where most of the working time is in the daytime, this situation causes a decreasing in employees' performance and high energy usage. Kinetic facades have emerged as a design solution to control daylight efficiency. Such adaptive elements with varying geometry and material can be applied to the facade according to the form, orientation, location of the building and the climate of the region. Therefore, the number of such studies must be increased. In this study, a determined part of the origami pattern (chicken wire) that consists of seven joints and six panels with a single degree of freedom as a spherical mechanism for the kinetic facade component was used. The aim is to increase daylight efficiency with three-dimensional shape changes in this kinetic facade in terms of LEED daylight criteria. IZTECH Innovation Center is modelled in Revit apply scenarios including variations of timeline, kinetic facade component's opening angles and material type. The performance of the kinetic facade is evaluated according to illuminance and sDA values calculated. As a result, a direct correlation between the customization of facade elements according to sunlight and daylight usage was observed. Findings provided us a guidance on how to apply the kinetic facade elements according to daylight.
