This seminar focuses on facade design as an important aspect of building, largely controlled by architects as per wishes of building owners. However, based on experience of design of several Green Buildings, it has been found that facade optimization can help reduce as much as 40% of building energy. This becomes an important aspect in developing economies wherein decisions are generally based on first cost with little importance to life cycle cost. Emerging markets like BRIC nations will add over 100 billion square feet in next two decades and better understanding of facade design will go a long way in preserving ecological balance in the world. Speakers from different parts of world present experience on the effect of various basic elements in design of envelope and its consequent effect on building operating energy, carbon emissions and air-conditioning load. The final part of presentation focuses on future façade solutions.
