What past attendees have said
The FACADES+ conference offers architectural participants at all levels of experience great opportunities. Recent graduates learn from experts and develop a basic understanding of facade issues to share with their colleagues. Seasoned professionals contribute to the development of a richer facade design vocabulary within the profession.
—Jane Weinzapfel, FAIA, Principal, Leers Weinzapfel Associates (Boston)
I was challenged to be honest to the materials and essence of the facade and what it represents in the program behind it. I also came away feeling we can strive for higher quality facades in idea, form, and technology regardless of a market driven architectural environment.
What Facades+ did well was prepare thoughtful sequencing, integrating owners, educators, contractors, politicians, consultants, engineers, architects, and vendors into an overarching discussion which worked in parallel with one’s attention span for engaging, compelling ideas.
This event fosters idea generation and creative thinking. This is at the heart of 3M’s innovative culture so Facades+ is the perfect place for us to meet with like-minded people who look for new and better ways of doing things.
