A facade refers to one side, usually the front, of a building. It is an integral piece to the overall design of a building. It provides the opportunity to create a personality and character to a building. Facades can come in many shapes and sizes, and it is really a chance for the designer to showcase their talent by bringing a building to life.

A building facade is important because it is a chance to put the emphasis on design. Too many buildings settle for standard designs that meet structural regulations but lack any sort of character. This has a detrimental effect on the places we live in with buildings all lacking something special.

As well as being aesthetically pleasing, a building facade also plays an important role in energy efficiency as well as linking the exterior building design to the interior design. With new innovations in materials, ideas and design, a build facade can unlock a multitude of opportunities for buildings.
