welcome! A Message from the Facades+ Partners

We are very excited to welcome you to our annual New York City Facades+ conference, symposium, and

workshops. This year our theme is Performance.

Facades+ Performance is our fourth event in an ongoing series of conferences that has spanned the nation with stops in San Francisco and Chicago as well as New York. With every iteration, Facades+ has become increasingly anticipated, better attended, and more engaging. There is good reason for this. Building facade technology and design practices are in the midst of a transformation that is bringing a profusion of new materials, processes, and design strategies to the realm of the building skin. One need only review the facade designs of five years ago in comparison to those on the boards and under construction today to observe this phenomenon. And the evolution of the field is accelerating, driven by the escalating performance and aesthetic demands on building envelope systems. The energy-intensive nature of buildings is now widely acknowledged, and broad-based performance enhancements are the only solution. We have no choice but to innovate our way to a sustainable built environment, and the facade is pivotal in this pursuit. Facades+ is a strategic response to these emerging conditions and how they impact the building skin; a response intended to facilitate a dialogue that spans the profession, the industry, and the academy.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you, the attendee. We recognize that your participation here represents an expenditure of resources, time, and money. The AEC industry has long been deficient in investing in its future. Many of us are working to change that. This conference is intended to give voice to these efforts. We especially want to thank our sponsors, and hope that all of you will recognize and acknowledge the importance of your participation. We also encourage your organization to consider future sponsor-ship of Facades+ events.

Even as we share in the enthusiasm for this New York City event, we are planning our upcoming conferences. July will find us in San Francisco, and October in Chicago. Exciting changes are in store for the future of Facades+. To accommo-date the growing demand for participation in our speaker and workshop programs, we will be expanding the conference to make it more inclusive with the addition of another day of multi-track programs. We are very much interested in your thoughts on how we might improve the experience and value your input. Please join the Facade+ dialogue.

agendaKEYNOTE SPEAKER

CHRISTOPH INGENHOVEN | INGENHOVEN ARCHITECTSChristoph Ingenhoven studied architecture at RWTH Aachen.

In 1985, Christoph founded the architectural studio of ingenhoven architects which has become one of the world’s leading

architectural practices in sustainable design. The determining factor in their work is ecology; the well-being of the user, technical progress, a logical construction with a clean finish, as well as great sensitivity towards light and space. The use of regenerative energies and resources like geothermal energy and rainwater as well as intensive integration of daylight and natural ventilation of buildings all play important roles in ingenhoven’s design concepts. With a minimum consumption of energy and resources-, his projects aim for the highest utilization comfort. ingenhoven architects’ focus is mainly on office buildings, high-rises, company headquarters, department stores, industrial buildings, transportation projects, university and education buildings, as well as master planning. Among the best-known projects are the RWE headquarters in Essen, the Burda Media Park in Offenburg, the Lufthansa Aviation Center in Frankfurt, the European Investment Bank Building in Luxembourg and the Uptown tower in Munich. The new main station Stuttgart was awarded the Global Holcim Award in Gold for sustainable design. The high-rise tower 1 Bligh is the first building in Sydney rated 6 Star Green Star and 5 Star NABERS Energy and received since its opening several awards as the CTBUH Best Tall Building Australasia and the International High Rise Award 2012/13. He is an appointed member of the NRW Academy of Science and Art.
