Design and Evaluation Strategies for Solar Cooling Integrated Façades
A case study in a Southern European office building
Integrating solar cooling technologies into building façades can play a crucial role in reducing reliance on conventional cooling systems. However, incorporating various aspects at the early stages of a project can be challenging for designers due to the diverse types of informat

Towards decarbonisation in the built environment
A comparative analysis of conventional vs. industrialised façades in nearly zero-energy building renovations
Achieving a climate-neutral European Union requires overcoming challenges in Nearly Zero-Energy Building (NZEB) renovations, including labour shortages and time-intensive traditional methods. Industrialised façade systems offer a promising solution, but their life-cycle impacts r
