Fused Facades (Google Design Fellowship R+D for the Built Environment)
This research aims to rethink the component based make up of a curtain wall panel that is typically composed of a multitude of parts and instead to provide an alternative in the form of a continuous multi-material. Multi-materials consist of two or more sub materials that are continuously fused together, without any mechanical connections. Being able to manufacture the panel in one facility as a continuous piece with a fraction of the materials typically used can enable radical energy savings, while allowing for greater design customisability of the panelling.
