An overview of some Mobile Workshop projects, a partnership between several European universities where upcoming designers and engineers design and build experiments. The EFN (Environmental Facade Network) is a meeting point for Science, Technology and Industry about research, teaching and exchange on facade knowledge. The EFN created the efnMOBILE as a platform for organized sustainable creative thinking.

For "The Making Of" - the book title's association to film making - the director must have broad knowledge of the technical aspects of producing a film. If a designer/architect aims to reach beyond the basic standard and wants to have full control over the outcome of his work, he or she also needs to cover all the different aspects of ""The Making Of"". This book shows cutting-edge examples of how facades are currently made. But it also reveals where possible innovative developments will emerge from and what the typical problems are in implementing them in the unique building market.

Die Fassade ist die Schnittstelle des Gebäudes mit seiner Umwelt. Dort treffen bauphysikalische Parameter wie Wärme, Feuchte, Schall und Licht auf das Haus und wirken auf es ein. Alle diese Einflüsse bedürfen der Regulierung durch die Gebäudehülle, um Behaglichkeit für den Nutzer und Funktionstüchtigkeit der Architektur zu gewährleisten. Diese Einführung erläutert die wichtigsten Phänomene, um dann den Bezug zur Baupraxis herzustellen: Welche Materialien reagieren in welcher Weise auf diese Faktoren? Wie gehen Fassadensystemen mit Wärme, Feuchte, Schall und Licht um? Das praxisorientierte Buch, entstanden aus der Zusammenarbeit eines Architekten und eines Bauingenieurs, beschreibt die wichtigsten Fassadenmaterialien und -konstruktionen im Hinblick auf ihre bauphysikalische Performance. The facade is the building's interface with its environment. It is here that building physics parameters such as heat, humidity, sound, and light interface with the building and impact on it. All these influences need to be controlled by the building envelope in order to ensure the comfort of the user and the functional capability of the architecture. This introduction explains the most important phenomena and then relates them to practical building situations - which materials react in which way to these factors? How do facade systems deal with heat, humidity, sound, and light? This practical book, which is the result of cooperation between an architect and a structural engineer, describes the most important facade materials and constructions under the aspect of their building physics performance.

This publication accompanies the first comprehensive presentation of Asta Gröting's project BERLIN FASSADEN. For her exhibition at KINDL- Centre for Contemporary Art, Gröting covered the walls and floors with sculptural silicone impressions of Berlin facades containing traces of bullet holes from the Second World War. Functioning like slow-exposure photographs, the sculptures capture the history of the facades, from the bullet’s impact during the war to the present day. Gröting reconstructs wounds as architectural traces and translates them into abstract pictures. Dust, dirt, and even graffiti are applied to the silicon casts, giving the negative imprints an almost painted effect, embodying trauma and time in a ghostly silicone skin. As Groting writes,'I want to look from inside these destroyed walls and facades into the world, as if I could see my own face staring back at me.' This exhibition catalogue, conceived with the artist, focuses on the making of BERLIN FASSADEN by presenting the artist’s original photographs of Berlin’s bullet-ridden facades alongside images depicting the on-site making of the silicon casts. The precise section of the facade is revealed and catalogued with its corresponding location, dimensions, and date. An accompanying essay by writer Deborah Levy explores the inner voice of the holes, scars, and histories transcribed on the architectural surfaces of buildings in Berlin. (10.09.-03.12.2017).

Das Thema Fassaden hat in den vergangenen Jahren in der architektonischen Praxis und der öffentlichen Wahrnehmung weiter an Bedeutung gewonnen. Neben Schutzhülle und Schauseite, Wärme- und Stromlieferant, steht die Außenseite der Gebäude in unmittelbarer Wechselwirkung mit dem umgebenden öffentlichen Raum. Der Fassaden Atlas in seiner Neuauflage vermittelt in Form eines kompakten Nachschlagewerks technische und gestalterische Planungsgrundlagen. Er bietet gezielt Informationen zu ausgeführten Beispielen bis in die konstruktiven Details. Die Charakteristika der Baustoffe werden dabei in ihrem besonderen Anwendungspotenzial und ihren spezifischen Bedingungen sichtbar. Eine umfassende Auswahl internationaler Anwendungsbeispiele zeigt verschiedene Lösungsansätze im Detail. In recent years, facades have become more important in architectural practice and in public perception. As well as functioning as a protective shell and visible 'face' and supplying heat and electricity, a building's exterior interacts directly with the surrounding public space.This revised and expanded new edition of the Facade Construction Manual offers readers technical and design planning fundamentals in a compact reference work.A section describing a comprehensive selection of built structures shows general and unique, tried and tested, and innovative approaches to facade planning - down to the last detail.
