Flat and Curved Facades in Harmony with Design, Performance, and Sustainability
Fundamentally, facade design must blend protection, performance, and visual impact, turning it into a defining architectural feature. The evolution of facades reflects advancements in materials, technology, and design flexibility. In earlier times, facades used simple materials like brick, stone, and wood, offering structural support while showcasing regional styles. Over time, new materials like iron and steel were introduced, allowing for taller buildings with expansive glass facades that marked the beginning of modernism in urban centers. The 20th century brought reinforced concrete and aluminum to building perimeters, enabling lighter and more varied designs. Recent advances in high-performance materials, like composite panels and bio-based claddings, offer architects new aesthetic and energy-efficient options. STACBOND exemplifies this innovation, enabling creative, sustainable design solutions.
