Facades as Media

Communicative Facades
(2011 - present)

Building facades can be designed to engage the public and improve the quality of urban spaces. At the same time, they need to improve the energy performance of buildings towards zero-energy standards. Therefore, technologies need to be investigated for facades that combine visual communication with energy efficiency and energy generation from renewable sources. Research on this subject was included in the Italian manual on technologies for media facades.
