The Conference 2015 focuses on the enormous diversity of façade architecture, on new production processes and on the vast amount of new materials broadening the design base for extraordinary building envelopes.
In 2012 over 160 participants from 11 different countries attended the conference hosting 36 presentations by engineers, architects, scientists and industrialists. The conference provided the opportunity to discuss tasks and issues in research, design and manufacturing of high-performance façades and building envelopes. The participants discussed material properties, design capabilities and their integration into the façade. The participants from different disciplines like architecture, engineering, science and industry were able to  mingle and exchange their knowledge in a relaxed atmosphere.

The conference addresses creative and innovative professionals and researchers at the forefront of skin design. We will discuss tasks and issues in research, design and manufacturing of high-performance façades and building envelopes. Participants will gain new perspectives on, and an enhanced insight into, developments and research in design and engineering for tomorrow’s advanced building skins.
