Buildings not only can be resilient from environmental changing by passive design, but also have ability to adapt the environment by active system. By using deployable structure, this system can be provided by changing multiple form based on its purpose to cover the building. To provide these conditions, deployable structure need to be explored and analyzed to develop compatible structure in the building. Case of study in this research is Pajajaran sports building in Bandung. The research method is exploration of form and movement based on limited variables, there are activities and weather changing/climate condition. These variables formulated into two conditions, open and closed building. Open building state in sports building have requirement that either natural or artificial lighting should not cause glare in field area. So, natural lighting was simulated by using Ecotect Analysis to find solar path movement and shadow angle. The result of the solar path simulation shows that daily solar movement must be responded directly because high rotation rate and regular changes, while the monthly sun path does not require significant movement due to low rotation rate and insignificant changes. This study will show design process of deployable structure into sports building.
