By: Chantell Harris The essential role of the building envelope - providing shelter, form and image - can be expanded to significantly improve building performance, including major reductions in energy use. Looking at current trends in global design, planning and sustainability, Mark Perepelitza, Associate Partner at ZGF Architects, noted that European architects are “very much working within a culture that approaches buildings and conditioned interior space in a fundamentally different way than we do in North America.” The Façades Design and Delivery 2012 Summit brings international case studies from global projects to North America, giving insights into effective applications of high-performance integrated façades. The full interview with Mark Perepelitza on Climate / Envelope / Energy Performance Innovations from Europe is available here: http://facadedesignanddelivery.com/ Following a successful IQPC Façades Design and Delivery event in Los Angeles in September 2011, the New York Summit will offer: • Innovative façade design presentations • How to increase ROI on high performance facades • Latest developments in energy efficiency technology • BIM skills upgrade • How-to on upgrading current facades with retrofitting techniques For more information on the IQPC Façades Design and Delivery 2012 Summit, please visit http://www.facadedesignanddelivery.com or contact Program Director Juliana Son at Juliana.Son@ # # # IQPC (www.iqpc.com) End
