About Discussions Projects56 Journals23 Publications5

Digital façades represent the intersection of architecture and technology, where building skins become interactive, responsive, or informationally rich surfaces. These projects explore how façades can function beyond traditional enclosure, incorporating screens, layered materials, and dynamic elements that engage with their urban context.

The community examines façade systems that use digital tools and materials to create visual complexity, control light and privacy, display information, or respond to their surroundings. Work ranges from museum installations and cultural venues to office buildings and residential projects, each treating the façade as a primary design and communication tool.

Hive Mind

The traditional digital facade is the product of consumerism. Most of the contents displayed cater to the mainstream values, and its significance and function have great limitations. Our design maximizes the activation of local space by introducing drones with a greater emphasis on human interaction.
