MOOC Facade Design and Engineering: Complexity made simple

We are happy to announce the start of our Mooc (massive open online courses) about facades: Understand the fundamental technology behind facade design and construction and the impact of the various components in facilitating the construction of sustainable, energy efficient, aesthetic and modern buildings.

Dr. Bilow and Dr. Knaack, architects and experienced educators in the field of facades, lead the course and take a practical approach, providing insights and providing a comprehensive picture of the complexity behind building facades. The course includes visits to building sites, architecture firms, local experts and manufacturing companies, to reveal the fundamentals of facade design with technical information directly from the source. It has been designed by the founding members of TU Delft’s Architectural Facades & Products Research Group in association with the European Facade Network, which comprises 10 European institutions with facade education programs and is supported by the TU Delft and Wicona.
